Oh yes, but again, the difference is the link between javascript-IE-Windows and javascript-
Opera-Windows. Its really hard to explain this. Anyway, is it really needed to know? Everybody
know that if you are using IE with javascript etc. default settings on, you are just ASKING for
trouble... :p But with Opera...well, how many "holes" has there been in Opera & its javascript
lately?
