Thank you. The massive amount of testing is surely what hampers web development? Years ago in the dark ages people dreamed of cross-platform apps; the three main players in this market (desktop only) now are Windows, Mac OSX and Linux (to a tiny extent). Writing a cross-platform native app is no longer a massive exercise in frustration (see wxWidgets or Qt). Someone thought Java would solve all our problems, but it seems to have fallen out of fashion, and everyone pins their hopes and dreams on cross-platform apps with websites, but surely the effort is far larger: testing on 3+ browsers per OS at least! I don't see how everyone copes.
