The only thing Moz/FF can't do that IE can is support ActiveX, the most insecure and buggy dynamic language on the net. Most would think this a good thing.
For starters look at how FF handles CSS here http://www.meyerweb.com/eric/css/edge/complexspiral/demo.html and try the same page in IE. Note the differences.
The problem here is that this piece of code is not compatible with Netscape/Mozilla, a very common occurrence with Javascript.
Perhaps if this clock was done with Flash, a more universal language there wouldn't be so many issues.

Harold, like I said yesterday, FF doesn't support JavaScript Natively, and you need dozens of extensions to get FF to do some of the things IE can support or accomplish. Just installing the download and nothing else is a stripped down bare bones browser.

Hello again,
My new passion is getting accustomed to this Mozilla Firefox browser (I got
the idea from Vern's posting). Firefox can be downloaded from:
http://download.mozilla.org/?product=firefox&os=win&lang=en-US
That's one long URL, no spaces if you have your window reduced in size.
You'll get a download dialog box (not even a browser page), something I
never saw before. It's a possible substitute to Internet Explorer and so
far, it seems to have some of the best features of both Netscape and IE.
However, here's a page that works well with IE but doesn't work with
FireFox: http://www.geocities.com/buddychai/Clock/Clock.html --- Can anyone
explain why? . Harold
