As far as I know the Selenium IDE tool can only be used in
Mozilla Firefox browser as it is an Add-on for only that
browser and hence you cannot use it in other browsers.
It is a record & playback tool and the script format can be
written in various languages including C#, Java, PERL,
Python, PHP, HTML.

Answer / annie
With Selenium IDE ,
1)you can test only with the Mozilla browser
2)limitations to open/ identifying the child windows,
clicking on the pop ups, etc.,
Since it is a open source record and play back tool, we can
execute only the basic functions of application, with
selenium RC, u can write own scripts so that most crucial
functions of applications can work

Answer / c.k
2 disadvantage are present as far as i know..
* If we click a link if that link opens in a seperate
window or a tab, it is running the test case in 1 window only.
* After the page gets refreshed it shows error in
selenium because it does'nt know whether that page got
refreshed or not

Disadvantages of Selenium IDE
It does not supports looping or conditional statements. Tester has to use native languages to write logic in the test case.
It does not supports test reporting, you have to use selenium RC with some external reporting pligin like TestNG or JUint to get test execution report.
Error handling is also not supported depending on the native language for this.
