Response to: cool... well wait

App I'm currently working on is IE only because it uses IE only constructs (in the form of HTCs).
It also uses some W3 certified CSS and Javascript code that Firefox can't handle (that part I created, and ran the W3 validators against which approved of it).
Firefox will just act like that code isn't there at all, which prevents the main menu of the application from working under Firefox...

    I've had the same problems going the other way. In my experience if you develop a non-trivial app using a single browser platform, it doesn't matter how careful you are to write cross-platform code... you are going to have to tweak it when you get it to the point where you start using other platforms. All browsers have their quirks and "Brand X" only constructs.

    I tend to like the development tools available with Mozilla (admittedly, I don't have VS installed, so the IE equivilents are somewhat crippled for me) so I usually start there and have to tweak for IE, et al.
