BuildID 2001121403, Win98:
"The appearance of this page demonstrates that your browser is incapable of
displaying the complex javascript required by this site."
Status: UNCONFIRMED → NEW
Ever confirmed: true
"Netscape 6 users: please note that due to problems with the implementation of 
javascript in Gecko-based browsers, this site does not operate correctly in 
said browsers. A compatible version will be available soon."

2001121313, Win2k.

Just another company that hires designers incapable of doing something that 
works everywhere.

Note the last bit, and the preceeding paragraph noting a plaintext version in 
the works as well.

At least they know it doesn't work and are going to fix it.  Nothing to get TOO 
worried about.  :)
Confirming on Moz 096 and N621.

generalenquiries@kingfisher.co.uk is my bet.

Setting P3.
Priority: -- → P3
er... the irony:
site works without a hitch in 1.0RC2. the problem is just browser sniffing.
try: http://www.kingfisher.com/english/index.htm

someone should just remind them to update their warning and redirect moz/ns7
users to index page.
one blocker less for MQ to brag about.
mailed them saying the webpage worked fine with mozilla and to reconsider
blocking moz/ns5
they just need to sniff better (detect gecko...)
