  1. IE is way more compatible than Mozilla? by svu · · Score: 1, Informative

    Just tested ECMAScript on Mozilla 0.9.8. I got 25 failures and 63 errors out of 290 runs! It is not very good, isn't it? IE6 gives 18 failures and 10 errors. Really sad... Hope mozilla.org will do something about it...

      For what its worth,
      I tested todays mozilla build (2-15)
      and it only has 19 failures and 58 errors,
      so IE and Moz are quickly converging.
      I'm willing to bet that the next IE release
      and mozilla 1.0 will both have 0 failures, 0 warnings.
