I agree with Ryan - coding for specific browsers is a futile excerise.

We do use javascript quite a bit but its usually to provide additional
funcitonality to users who are able to handle it. The empahsis is on
people still being able to use the site without javascript. This could
include things like having the text "search" inside a search box, but
then removing it when the user clicks into the search box or providing
tree style navigation.

Javascript is ok, but must be used with care. I think the best
approach is to aim at the DOM & ECMA standards (O'Reilly have a great
book on this) and not getting trapped into browser specific or IE only
scripting.


Cheers
