User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7b) Gecko/20040331

When using current versions of Mozilla, the collapsable menus on our Dell
Premier page no longer work.  I click on the menu title to expand the menu and
nothing happens. 

I've narrowed down the regression to between Mozilla 1.5a and Mozilla 1.5b.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Download and install mozilla-win32-1.5b-installer-sea.exe
2. Browse to premier.dell.com and login (You need an account)
3. Click on any menu title on left side of screen
Actual Results:  
Nothing happens


Expected Results:  
Expanded the menu

Downloaded and install mozilla-win32-1.5a-installer-sea.exe and the menus work
again.

I don't have an account.  Could you attach an HTML file (with necessary external
script/style included) that shows the problem?

Zipped testcase gives a javascript error and nothing happends when I click on
the menu items (Mozilla nor IE)

Attachment: JavaScript file with error

Not sure if you can get to this file, so I am uploading it.  Using a recent
nightly, the JavaScript Console shows: 
Error: document.getElementById(navChild).attributes[1].nodeValue.split(":")[1]
has no properties
Source File: http://premier.dell.com/premier/scripts/menu_ns_6.js
Line: 20

But when I use 1.5a (on my laptop) the JavaScript Console shows no errors and
the menu items expand and collapse as expected.

Mozilla current trunk (2004040608) on linux
document.getElementById(navChild).attributes[0].nodeValue=visibility: visible;
document.getElementById(navChild).attributes[1].nodeValue=Children1

Mozilla 1.5a on linux
document.getElementById(navChild).attributes[0].nodeValue=Children1
document.getElementById(navChild).attributes[1].nodeValue=visibility: visible;

the page expects attributes[1] to be the style, but there's nothing to say
that's what it is supposed to be.  Mozilla can order them however it wants.  If
the page wants to do it this way (and why it doesn't just use
document.getElementById(navChild).style, I don't know), it should check nodeName
and look for "style".
