Anybody have any hints for making javascript behave in multiple browsers when using DOM? Throw in a dynamic script callback method and I've got a real puzzle on my hands. I can crash IE predictably and Firefox isn't happy with forms.

I got the Firefox side of things to work. It's a tad slow, but it works. But IE is such a departure from the various specs that it's hard to know how it will function. I'm still crashing IE at will. Amazing.

My client won't like that. There's a way around it. I know there is. That's why software is so much fun. It's like a puzzle to solve. :)

When you add the dynamic script tag to do the page update, don't remove it when you are done and IE will be happy. Very strange. Took me a lot of experimenting to figure that one out.

IE needs to know it's there
