I would be interested in seeing links to the bugs that you've filed (please feel free to link them in a reply to this post).
much more of the DOM is implemented in IE than it is in Mozilla
Unless you're referring to nonstandard MSIE extensions to the DOM, you're just plain wrong here.
Off the top of my head, I can think of some DOM modules that have been correctly implemented in Mozilla but are not available at all in MSIE :
- DOM Level 2 Events
- DOM Level 2 Range API
There are other aspects of the W3C DOM that are either unimplemented or misimplemented in recent versions of MSIE, but these two figure prominently for me (as I recently completed a project that used client-side JS and these DOM modules).
Every time that I have to work on a contract that includes some client-side development, I'm grateful for Mozilla's close adherence to the W3C Recommendations and loathe MSIE more and more for their consistently poor conformance and, often useless, extensions. In MSIE's nonstandard version of events, for example, one can get a handle on only the element node within which an event was fired (using the srcElement), but not on the actual text node.
Please, please check your facts before spreading outright falsehoods here.
