I know that Mozilla has implementation by DOM2 which is void Add(in HTMLElement element, in HTMLElement before), but IE6 does not have that. It has something like void Add(element[, indexBefore]) instead. Is there a way that you can change decalaration of Add method to somethnig more IE6 compatibile like: Add(in HTMLElement element[, in HTMLElement before]) That will not break DOM2 compatibility!? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
Actually, it will.... Further, this is a frozen embedding interface, so it can no longer change. Sad, but that is life.

Sad is that Mozilla based browsers will not be widely accepted by users. -- Who care for developers...
