HTML Rendering

I was wonder what engine the BYOND system uses to render. Is it the default? Or is it the current version of IE?

I am trying to develop a game that will make HEAVY use of the browser and I wanted to know what level of javascript the page will support. For example, I want to include a large amount of DHMTL and use that to interact with the game. Specifically the XMLHttpRequest Object along with the whole idea of validating as you type. Javascript is useful =P

Thanks,
Zach

As far as browse() is concerned, currently it uses IE. Eventually it'd be nice to ditch that in favor of the Mozilla Gecko plugin (or to allow that as an option), since Mozilla is several orders of magnitude more secure.

Anything you develop, you should probably use HTML and JavaScript that works on both platforms.

(BTW, that's a great avatar you've got there. Nice work.)
