As long as you have the latest Mozilla build you're basically working
with the same codebase as Netscape 6.  Arguably if you develop for one
you're also developing for the other. Mozilla may be more stable because
it doesn't come with all the integrated bloatware. So try switching to
Moz if NS6 doesn't like you.

As far as Opera 5, I just started fiddling with it.  Dan's right: it
doesn't support createElement() (or many of the W3C ECMAScript
interface, for that matter).  Nor does it seem to support innerHTML,
insertAdjacentHTML, or any other means of dynamically generating
elements without document.write. Bummer.

What's interesting is that by default, Opera 5 indentifies itself as
MSIE 5.0.  But it can also be manually set to disguise itself as NS6,
NS4, and Opera.  That means you can't always rely on a browser sniffer
using "navigator.appName" to sniff it correctly.

I'm still tinkering, because there doesn't seem to be a lot of docs on
the web concerning Opera and DHTML compatibility.  In it's defense, it's
a soopa-fast little browser.  It smokes Mozilla's performance (on my
machine, at least).
