Re: [ILUG-BOM] Speeding up Linux adoption

Sometime on Mar 11, Biju G C assembled some asciibets to say:

What ever IE do achievable in Mozilla. See pojects at http://www.iol.ie/~locka/mozilla/mozilla.htm

I don't think so. Things that IE can do that Mozilla cannot: - run viruses - allow remote users to gain access to your system (some versions) - crash windows

In any case, the problem really is that some sites have code like this:

if(navigator.appName != MSIE) alert("your browser won't work with this site");

(well, not exactly, but you get the picture)

We need to convert these sites to remove this code.

There's also a lot of JScript code that isn't JavaScript or DOM compliant, and this will run only on IE. That needs to be converted as well.
