There's your problem... (half sarcastic, half groan).  Whenever someone
writes applications for specific applications, it is going to be very
specific, even down to specific versions.  On the other hand, when they
write, properly, to ratified specifications (HTML, JavaScript, Java,
etc.), it's far more likely to work on all the browsers, and not just
specific versions of them.  But then they won't want to do that, because
they'll want to be re-hired to do the updates, ad infinitum.
