"Firefox and Javascript"

Mornin all,

I wonder if any of you have an insight into the way that Firefox deals with javascript, that seems to be different from the way in which IE deals with it - in other words why is the same script displayed differently?

For example:

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
document.write(Date())
// -->
</script>


Displays Fri Jan 16 09:55:40 2009 in IE


but Fri Jan 16 2009 10:00:23 GMT+0000 (GMT Standard Time) in Firefox?

Admittedly, neither display is pretty, but the Firefox display just seems a bit OTT:-)

Thanks
