I have designed a web site for a local company and recieved a couple of
unusual emails reference viewing the site. Both emails said that they use
Firefox instead of IE and can't view the site. I have done some checking on
Firefox and found two main differences between Firefox and IE: Firefox has no
support for VBScript and ActiveX, and it doesn't use Microsoft's Java VM.

Does anyone have any ideas of how I can make my site compatible with Firefox?

The site is http://manateesheriff.com

Don't use VBScript and ActiveX, and Java

Java VM----Microsoft no longer distributes the VM with
Windows. To use java clients must now install it from Sun.
It works with most popular browsers, IE & FF inclusive.
ActiveX-----Don't use it, it only works with IE at this time
VBScript----If you are using vbscript, it should be on an
asp page. The scripts are run at the server

Your issues- the menu is probably using a javascript (not
related to java) which only works in IE. Find a menu that is
cross-browser compliant.

I can't stand SoThink, or any of the other all javascript menus, but that's
just me....

Murray- I think I agree with you. I guess you get what you pay for. I think
I'll either find a new DHTML program or try to right a CSS for it. Anyone
have any suggestions on a good DHTML program that is cross browser
compatibility?
