I was meaning to file a bug about this site myself...
It has two main problems (at least the Hebrew version. Haven't tested the 
English version):
* The layout is completely broken. (screen shot will come later today, when I 
get near my mac...)
* In order to read the articles you need to log in (signup is free thugh). 
However, on my Mac Mozilla, clicking on "sign on" button does nothing.
This is a major economic news site in Israel.

In the help section of the site, they recommnd using windows and explorer 5 or 
6, hinting that they might be aware of the problems with mozilla.

The URL of the logon page:
http://www.globes.co.il/serve/login/login.asp?did=568479&fid=845The page is full
of JavaScript which I am unable to make head or tails of :-(

The site looks much better now, but the Script still fails to let the user log on.

The layout in the hebrew globes site is still broken.
This was moved to Tech Evangelism bugs by "bc" a year ago, without any explanation.
How do you know it is a problem with the globes site, not with mozilla?
If anyone knows, please write what in the globes site makes it not standards
based, and not displayable by mozilla.

Trying to validate the page results in 352 errors, so I guess that something
about must be wrong, don't you agree?

a few days ago globes fixed most of the problems in their site. Irit Adani,
manager of development in their computer unit contacted me about it. she wrote
that they still have a few problems that will be fixed in the next month.

I believe this bug should be closed, globes.co.il seems fine.

Comment 14

[Guy nahari]

i don't see this bug in the site.
i am using firefox 3.5 and this site is good

Comment 15

[Tsahi Asher]

the site seems usable, although for some reason the vertical spacing between items is much bigger in firefox than in ie8.

Comment 16

[Oren Held]

I think we'd better close this and focus on the real bad cases..

Anyone objects to close this bug - it seems that everybody agrees that globes.co.il works fine in FF 3.6
