It says right on the page that this effect uses IE-only code.

Mozilla doesn't and won't support that code.  It's a non-standard thing of theirs.

Well i have noticed a CSS error. www.myspace.com/neolithic will look differnt in
IE than in Fire Fox. examples would be simmple marquee's. give them a direction
with other edits to the profile and they dont show up. like at the top of the
myspace profile XneolithicX (btw this is my profile) i do like FireFox but until
this issue is fixed i dont recomend it to highschoolers because they use
myspace. and being that if this doesnt get fixed it put a sort of handcuff on
FireFox. As of this moment i can not use FireFox because of this reason. And i
will not recommend it to other people.

Isn't this actually a dupe of 64019?

[Jesse Ruderman]

I don't think this is a dup of bug 64019.  This bug is specifically about page-enter and page-exit transitions, which a simple implementation of IE-like filters would not include.
