So far I've been under the impression that hta mode is more powerful than
regular mode, but I have a site that works in regular mode and not in hta
mode.
Could someone point me to resources that explain why some javascript won't
work in hta mode? Because I have a javascript grid that simply stays grey.

I'm afraid these sites are too general. I only need the site to work in hta
mode as it does in normal mode. In normal mode I don't get an error
complaining about object method or property not supported but in hta mode I
do. And that makes it impossible to test it with selenium which uses hta
mode. From what I see something behaves differently in hta mode but all
resources seem to tell that hta mode is less restrictive than normal mode.
Looks like a contradiction to me.

This newsgroup's focus is on the end-user, not developers, I'm afraid.
