Browser, not engine ---> Browser-General for now

This site WORKSFORME using Mozilla trunk binary 20020612xx WinNT.
I click on the "Card of the Day" (left side of site), a new window
comes up, and the image loads successfully in the new window.
Today's card of the day was contained this anchor element:

         <a href="javascript:autoCardWindow('Desert')">


Here is the function involved:

// pop up window for <autocard> tag - with drop shadows
function autoCardWindow(cardname)
{ 
  agent = navigator.userAgent;
  windowName = "Sitelet";

  params = "";
  params += "toolbar=0,";
  params += "location=0,";
  params += "directories=0,";
  params += "status=0,";
  params += "menubar=0,";
  params += "scrollbars=0,";
  params += "resizable=0,";
  params += "width=245,";
  params += "height=330";

  win = window.open("/magic/autocard.asp?name="+cardname, windowName , params);

  if (!win.opener)
    win.opener = window;
}



NOTE: I see that the site is using outdated Macromedia template code:

function MM_findObj(n, d){ //v3.0
  var p,i,x;

  if(!d) d=document;

  if((p=n.indexOf("?"))>0&&parent.frames.length) {
    d=parent.frames[n.substring(p+1)].document;
    n=n.substring(0,p);
  }
  if(!(x=d[n])&&d.all)
    x=d.all[n];

  for (i=0;!x&&i<d.forms.length;i++)
    x=d.forms[i][n];

  for(i=0;!x&&d.layers&&i<d.layers.length;i++)     
x=MM_findObj(n,d.layers[i].document);

  return x;
}


Version 3.0 of this function does not work in Mozilla, because
it assumes that the browser supports either |document.all| (as in IE)
or |document.layers|(as in NN4.7). Neither is supported in Mozilla. 
Version 4.0 of this function is necessary for Mozilla -



Arjan: 

1. Does this site still fail with the latest Mozilla build?

2. If so, do you get any errors in Tools > Web Development > JavaScript Console?
   (be sure to clear it of any previous errors first)

3. What happens if you try a new Mozilla profile? You can do this by 
   launching Mozilla from a console window as follows:

          [(path to Mozilla)] ./mozilla -profilemanager
