jesuspreak, nah i mean a way to make all browsers render html in exactly the same way using some kind of common engine, is that possible or just stupid?
hmmm but is it possible.... only mention cos i remember seeing an article on how it's going to get even harder to code websites what with all the crazy mobile browsers, tablet style browsers etc now kicking about....
Well it seems to me that current browser based apps like http://www.pxn8.com/ are pretty slow! And you're never going to build a Photoshop beater.... so what kind of app would be worth having on this kind of basis, something more like an open-office kind of thing?
The reason most browser based apps are slow is because they are based on a server online. My approach wouldn't be like that - the program is on your own PC.
Well, there's also some of those folks who still code for IE just for the fun fact that they can apply all kinds of C++/VB hackery to it. But yeah, I derailed it a bit when I overlooked the "web friendly scripting" criteria, so snuff my last reply.

Anyway, your idea probably IS stupid to MS and Mozilla because they lose their leverage on the other browsers. Sad, I know.
