I went to your site, read the FAQ and then registered to test it but was told I needed to download Firefox. I am using the latest Beta build of Chrome.

My only suggestions at this point are to highlight browser requirements before someone takes the time to register; even though the registration form is short.

Secondly, do we really have to use Firefox?

Sorry. I just added a popup which will warn you on the homepage itself. The Design interface is very JS intensive and right now I have only tested it properly on FF. I do play to add support for all browsers very soon.

However, the finished PHP applications should run properly on all browsers.

While I guess the popup is better than nothing, seeing a window.alert anywhere usually brings up negative connotations (at least for me). I'd just add some text disclaimer on the sign up page - or at least confine the alert to that page. I tried thumbing through your site, but having to click "ok" every time I wound back on the home page didn't keep me on it for long. Best of luck to you.
