Not quite, perhaps.

Well, outside the fact that even strictly standard html provides hooks
for conformant ways to add non-conformant tags, yeah, conformance
matters.

The web standards have been open-ended from the beginning on purpose.
It's a kind of hidden sub-text in the discussions, one of those
proverbial elephants in the room. (Confused me for a long time, too.)

Direct-X?

Even two distinct installs of Fedora 14 are likely to have distinct
sets of libraries installed, and the java/ECMAscript interface to the
OS libraries is a bit fuzzy.

It goes without saying that you must have checked that you have the
same set of add-ons loaded in each. Right?

Shoot. Without a look at your source code, I would be hard-pressed to
even suggest a proper forum for you among those that are dedicated to
the various ways to mix HTML, CSS, ECMAscript, server-side tech, and
so forth.
