Not sure what you mean about MS subcontractor's language...but it's not
exactly a flaw - those features were designed that way..to work primarily
with IE. You just need to be aware of what you can use, and there's lots of
stuff (not necessarily MS stuff) that won't work cross-browser very well.
IIRC, I don't think you can hyperlink to a textbox directly...I may be wrong
about this its been a long while since I've worked with anything from the
Draw Toolbar.
