Using firefox in Windows and Linux (same version) i get a problem where i cannot specify a shadow underneath text to be consistent, because the margin/padding differences are throwing me out - i have set paddings and margins of all elements to 0 - except the one i wish to change... it's highly annoying!

window.opener.closed
works in IE 6 but not in Mozilla or Opera due to a known bug. Also, in IE 5 window.opener.closed DOES NOT work correctly due to another known bug. I also have a longer writeup in my blog.

In Internet Explorer you won't be able to view all of an absolutely positioned div because IE doesn't 'create' a scrollbar.

Explorer Mac and Safari also trigger the onload event when you use an internal anchor to jump to. The jump is executed time and again.
(ppknote: This bug is closely related to Setting location.hash to the same value twice causes reload, but it's not quite the same.)

This site is no longer maintained. I’m sorry, but it’s just too much work for too little return.
