about 23-24 years ago me and another senior developer were working on some important parts of the product we were building, and we had a minor task for a company that was paying a little bit, so we handed it over to a guy who was junior but should really have been better (he had the wrong kind of Laziness).

After some hours I saw him walking around with that programmers walk we get when trying to figure out a particularly hard problem. So I went over to check on him.

He informed me that his code to read in the XML file and transform it with the XSLT I had given him worked perfectly in IE but in Netscape there was some sort of problem with the ActiveX control he was using.

So - I figure assuming "JSX works the same way" is the modern day version of that.
