It is stated in user's manual that some objects utilize Explorer-specific features and author should avoid using them, if he wants to use the course in multi-browser environment. These are: Gradient Box and all AutoShapes. AutoShapes are VML-objects and VML (Vector Markup Language) is not supported by FireFox. SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics - another vector format) could be the good alternative, but there are still problems with displaying inline SVG-objects in both Gecko-family and IE. Therefore, if the choice is IE-only or nothing - we choose IE-only.
Personally, I like FireFox, but, when it comes to active and dynamic content, all Gecko-based browsers are weaker than IE. That's just the fact [:(]
