I am planning to develop a simple tool checker that can warn,suggest and/or eliminate browser compatibility issues targeting four majorly used web browsers safari,Internet explorer and Mozilla firefox and Opera.As it is well known that javaranch is a forum where experienced people participate and share their ideas I request experienced folks to share(or brain storm ) their "Well Known" Compatibility issues they have experienced so that i could enhance/improve my targets in designing the tool.Further I humbly request the moderators to make to make this thread as "Sticky" for a certain period of time so that I could get valuable and known compatibility issues from ranchers.Further I greatly apologize if i have violated the forum rules in requesting this favor and the thread may be deleted if it violates this.

Thanks for help and support in this regard

Sincerely

Your request is no violation of any rules, but I don't think that this post qualifies for sticky status. Forums postings aren't exactly the best way to capture this type of information in any case.

Such information has been compiled in may other places, one of the foremost being http://www.quirksmode.org/.

No problem. By the way, if you want to just avoid most of the problems completely, JavaScript libraries such as jQuery have already identified and handle most of the browser compatibility issues for you.
 
Don't get me started about those stupid light bulbs.
