A very fair point. That goes back to the whole "scratching my itch,"
though. My work environment is Linux. i don't own^H^H^Hlicense a copy
of Windows, nor do own^H^H^Hlicense a copy of OS/X. jQuery doesn't
work well with Konqueror (my second browser of choice), and i
personally dislike Opera, so that leaves me with only Firefox to
develop for and test with. That said, i do go out of my way to only
use JS features which i *believe* to be cross-browser, in the same way
that i restrict myself to ISO-defined constructs in my C++ code (and
never use compiler-specific features).

Nonetheless, i agree that my crusading against non-FF browsers doesn't
help raise my download counts at all.

:D
