[TriLUG] quickbooks vs sql-ledger

[Rock Roskam]

There is a plugin call user agent switching that tells mozilla to report itself as IE.  I have used it to access some sites and allow connection.

It's not *that* hard.

JavaScripts document.all in IE seems to kill a lot of pages for Mozilla 
based browsers that I see. 

And scripters using those objects can easily paint themselves into an IE 
only corner without knowing that property ain't a blessed one.

So the real question is when is someone going to write a deal-with-IE-site 
pluggin?

We all know the MSCE paper-tigers will never get out of M$ pocket.
