Why javascript not working in Mozilla Firefox?

What is the difference between Mozilla Firefox and IE ?
hi ...

javascript IS working in firefox ... there is a difference between the ECMA-Script implementations that is the base for javascript (developed by netscape) and jscript (developed by microsoft) ... IE implements jscript and the other browsers implement javascript ... when coding cross-browser-apps you should use the standards compliant methods that are implemented in both of the dialects ... exmpl.: don't use document.all use document.getElementById and something like this ...

kind regards

may be sombody here knows a source for an overview ... but i strongly recommend to develop an application with firefox + firebug-extension ... and then adapt it to IE-specifics ... have a look at the articles page where you may find some useful information for cross-browser-issues ... exmpl. object-detection instead of browser-detection, event-handling, etc. ... there is work in progress that will add some more hints and best practices ...

kind regards
