    'What' as in... ?

    AFAIR, Sun has an exe running that Javascripts in the browser delegate their tasks to... But, honestly, I have not worked too much in Java and don't know much...

    Oh, actually a lot of Microsoft websites (ASP) were not Firefox compatible... Till recently (before MSDN got renovated) many MSDN pages and subscriber downloads did not work well with Firefox.

    I think this problem stemmed not only from poor development effort (sure there are many not-so-good web developers out there) but also from the fact that FF has gained in popularity in the last few years, and legacy monstrous web-systems did not (or probably could not) change quickly to suit the new rendering technology.

    Having said that, it is of course not impossible that Firefox also shipped with a set of bugs that caused a lot of web-developers one sleepless night too many.
