I must confess I've not programmed at a Siebel end but it worked OK at 
my last place of work under Firefox OK - not sure about Linux tho.
As for IE - it does not run true JavaScript - its interpreter does not 
work the same as a real one
The 'js' on the login page dates from 2001*! And at first glance the 
code is prettying things up - ie they havent heard of CSS! Its so old it 
might be worth scaring them into thinking its some form of security risk!

I've seen nothing in it to suggest that it wont run under linux - anyone 
got Mozilla1.7.7 equivalent or want to try spoofing that?

*It doesn't say 'cant work on your browser' so violates event the 
simplest concept of usefulness.
