Browser advancement

Browser advancement: A big downside of JavaScript interactivity is the diverse engines which may attempt to execute those instructions. Getting someone to update their browser is easier than getting them to update their operating system, but as eWeek observes, the lack of clear consensus on "best browser" means that "Ajax" will have to support a diversity of brands and versions for some time to come: "For that matter, unless Firefox 2.0 and IE 7 improve greatly before their respective releases later in 2006, neither will come close to topping the quality of the already shipping Opera 9."
