I'm working on a project that needs cross-platform use, through a browser. Pondering whether to just "standardise" on FireFox since it runs on all.... that way development focus can go towards actual functionality rather than hacks to make all different browser brands behave... your thoughts?

Well, after several attempts of coding smart applications in browsers, I found Adobe Flex the most convenient. You don't have to consider cross browser functionality and/or layout at all. The only drawback: the browser needs flash capabilities.
