Thanks for the feedback everyone! Besides being an excuse to have Chuck Norris in a post (which was the main point), this was really just an extension of the QBJS Fun Fact #4 from the other thread that was demonstrating how you can extend the native functionality of QBJS by calling out directly to Javascript code. This is meant to be analogous to making calls out to C libraries in QB64 or shelling out to external executables or executing assembly in QBasic to extend beyond the native functionality of QB64. It is certainly not representative of a typical QBJS program.
So, this particular example didn't get a lot of rigorous cross-browser testing, because, again, it's just a silly Chuck Norris joke.
However, I do make an effort to test the core functionality of QBJS and the QBJS IDE in as many browsers as is feasible. I focus on the following browsers which represent greater than 90% of the total market utilization: Chrome, Safari, Edge, and Firefox. I simply don't have the bandwidth to test in the more obscure browsers. It would be analogous to trying to test QB64 for every linux distribution out there.
Lots of fun new stuff in the works for the next release that I hope to share soon!
