I need to provide our web developers an easy and quick way to test their code on multiple browsers. Here's my current plan: Get a Mac Install Windows XP and Linux over VMWare Install all possible major browsers on these OSes, including on the Mac and the god-forsaken IE6. This will allow developers to use the system to test their app...

I am using jQuery 1.3.2. There is an input field in a form. Clicking on the input field opens a div as a dropdown. The div contains a list of items.

In trying to convert some of my JS to cross-browser compatibility, I've come across strange behaviour where I'm unable pinpoint the problem. I want to convert window.event.x (IE specific) using jQuery, so my code looks as follows: function someFunction(e){ var ev = $.event.fix(e); alert(ev.pageX); } This returns the correct val...
I have some JavaScript code that works in IE containing the following: myElement.innerText = "foo"; However, it seems that the 'innerText' property does not work in Firefox. Is there some Firefox equivalent? Or is there a more generic, cross browser property that can be used? ...
According to SitePoint (and my own experiments), the IE implementation of "setAttribute()" is buggy and unreliable. Also according to SitePoint, the name attribute is read-only. Is there another way I can set the name attributes on elements? I need this for use with radio buttons. If possible, I'd like a solution without jQuery, as I...
I'm trying to prevent A HREF from actually opening the link, but to execute a script. I got the script part working, but it seems Firefox would just ignore this: $("#permalink a").click(function(id){ $("#newPost").fadeToggle; event.preventDefault(); var id = this.getAttribute('href'); $("#newPostContent").load(id); $("#newPost...
I want to fold a table so that some rows are hidden. I want to maintain the size of columns, so that they don't leap around when you hide rows (this happens if you use display: none; indeed, the table width can also change). I also want the table to reflow when the window size is changed, so that a table full of data uses as much space...
I'm using the IE web developer toolbar to troubleshoot an issue. A blank white space is appearing below a list item, and I can't logically figure out why. Using the web dev toolbar, I see that in example 1 below, a "Text - Empty Text Node" is being output below "Text - Google". Ironically, in the second, with a space manually inserte...
Hi I made this site a while ago in my table days but have just realised the horizontal scrolling dive doesn't work in Safari. #galleryscroller { overflow-x:scroll ; overflow-y:hidden; overflow:-moz-scrollbars-horizontal !important; height:138px; width:360px; } <div id="galleryscroller"> <table width="100%" border...

Eventually, I will swap the XML document with an HTTP call, but for now, I am doing a GET of the local XML copy. My approach works in Firefox (2 elements show up in the drop down) but IE7 isn't...

Due to the fact that each browser uses other ways of implementing plugins there should be a library or something with the basic functionality and a wrapper for each browser. So, to be more precise, with which language the library shou...
I would expect this code to display a border around a table. It does in Internet Explorer but not in Firefox. In firefox it displays a horizontal line above the table. If I add anything else e.g. <br /> within the div the border is displayed correctly. It also works if I remove the align attributes. What is the reason for this behaviour?...
Now I know this issue is over-talked about but I cannot seem to find a question that addresses this little gem directly so here goes...
