Why are about half of Javascript codes incompatable with Firefox? Why would some work and some not? It saddens me greatly :/

Um.. please read the post instead of just the topic title. My question was why most Javascript codes here don't work with Firefox. I use Firefox too. But I wasn't asking why it was better.

This isn't technically coding support, it's outside InvisionFree, this forum is only for InvisionFree coding support.

And you shouldn't be backseat moderating. Whilst this topic is vaguely about at InvisionFree, it probably suits Programming and Scripting Chat better.

Topic Moved to Programming and Scripting Chat

IE has a lot of proprietary Javascript, which doesn't follow the standards. Most scripts should work in FX though.

It CAN use JavaScript..

Tools - Options - Web Features, then check Enable JavaScript.

The only correct answer yet. IE has some non-standard extensions to the Javascript model, like document.all, that are not supposed to be used. Some people have learned to code that way, so it's all they know how to do.

Interesting...so it is a flaw with the work of the coders, and not the FireFox browser...

FireFox has earned another point of respect in my eyes.
