Migrating IE Web Apps to Mozilla

PabloHoffman writes "Have you ever wondered what would it take to make your (unfortunately) IE-only web app to work on Firefox?. IBM published an interesting article about migrating Internet Explorer specific web applications to Mozilla-based browers. It covers basic cross-browser development techniques, and some developing strategies for overcoming the differences between both browsers."

      Yeah! I was moderating that discussion... and then I told me comments don't exist... find the journal section... then the article dissappeared off my front page and the developers page... Sure it was a "nothing to see here article" but nonetheless.

      A much more interesting story is that The North American Solar Car Rayce Just finsihed with a 45 second difference between U of M's Momentum and U of MN's Borealis III (sp?) Once the penalties are assesed and the other racers finish an annoucement will appear.

      Since when do Slashdot editors pull dupes? Why haven't we seen a story about this change in Slashdot editor standards, and another story about it too?

    how true. like saddam's al qeada connections, his longstand weapons programs, and his overt support for terrorism. the non-existence of those are liberal cannards, yet clearly they are all true and all well-documented.

    Saddam's al qeada (sic) connection - his grandmother's cousin once sat on the same bus as a suspected terrorist.

    longstand (sic) weapons programs - not disputed. What is incorrect was that anything was active at the time Bush planned his crusade.

    support for terrorism - he sent money to the families of Palestinian suicide bombers. Let's go after everyone in the Middle East that hates Israel. How long is the line?
