Developing cross browser applications is a real pain. A good option is to use one of the Javascript libraries out there which handle most of the Javascript inconsistencies out there though CSS related issues would have a different story to tell.

If it's Firefox, your best bet would be to install the Firebug and Web Developer plugin and start hacking.

Also, most of those libraries are designed to make IE more consistent with firefox, firefox is a lot more standards compliant than IE. I usually develop for firefox first, then adjust my code for IE.

Completely agree though I always end up forgiving Microsoft considering that they have given the Web Development World a pretty useful concept / thing like XMLHttpRequest object. ;-)

Hear hear! Plus the more I read about IE8's compliance promises, the more excited I get.
