Firefox compatibility for VS.net Web apps?

[Aaron Vegh]

This is funky stuff, and thanks for your assistance! I'm going to find
out for sure whether they're using ASP or VB, although I'm pretty sure
it's the latter.

Here's some examples of broken functionality outside of WinIE. The app
in question is a scheduling system that allows you to drag and drop
appointments to different locations in a calendar. It also has a
capability to bring up a floating "tooltip"-style window when you
mouse over a calendar item, showing the item's contents. As well, what
appears to be a standard ActiveX calendar-style date picker doesn't
work unless in WinIE (or MacIE, by the way).

None of the features above work outside of WinIE. Do you suppose that
these behaviours could be a result of broken adapative rendering, as
you suggest? Or is there something more at work?

Thanks!
Aaron.
