[jawsscripts] Re: IE and Firefox

I had wanted this feature for some time now!  I had given it some thought, 
but no effort.  Simple and elegant.  It makes me want to brush up on 
objected oriented programming.  I suppose this is a necessity if scripting 
IE.  Do you get all of the object info from Microsoft's documentation 
regarding the DOM?  Thanks for this tidbit!  It works well, is very useful, 
and has got me motivated.

Firefox did not ask if I wanted to make it my default browser.  I think I 
turned this off way back, since I do this type of browser switching all the 
time

On applications that are not well documented or known, how can you obtain 
the methods... about the application's objects?
