Installed latest nightly: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux 2.2.16-22 i586; en-US; m18 Gecko/20001027) according to "about:" Installed PSM. Went through most of the smoke-tests mentioned on the PSM page as I'm one of the people bitten by http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34834 All was fine (woo!) Went to http:/www.tesco.co.uk and clicked "Groceries to your door" which takes you to http://www.tesco.com/Register/default.htm?from=/superstore/mainstore.asp Went to register. Clicked "Register" :) This throws up "You have requested a secure document" dialogue box and and took me to https://secure.tesco.com/register/form_1.htm which is where the fun starts. This is the first in a series of https pages for this registration thing. There are several 'help' buttons for things like your postcode and clubcard number scattered over the pages which are javascript. On this first page, I clicked the postcode "Help" button and: o first, I got a "You have requested an insecure document" warning. I hit 'OK' No javascript window occurred yet. o then, I got a -second- security warning, now telling me "you have requested a secure document". Whilst this was displayed, the main browser window had lost its original "Tesco.Com - Registration Form 1 - Mozilla" titlebar and said simply "Mozilla". I clicked "OK" for this anyway, The "Why we need to know your postcode" javascript window arrived, the main window titlebar went back to its original state and I suddenly realised that the padlock on the main window was now open although I was still on an https page. On filling in the details on that page and clocking 'Next', which should take you to another secure https page, I was told, "You have requested an insecure document". I clicked OK and went to https://secure.tesco.com/register/form_2.htm which is apparently a secure page. Matters continued like this. I did notice that when towards the end I clicked back, back, back, back, ending up on the first page again, the little padlock worked and was closed for them all. But as soon as I tried to go forward, it opened up again. I have got it (and me!) getting much more confused than that, but that's the gist. I think it starts when you start clicking on the 'Help' buttons. It's been suggested that it's to do with "mixed content on the web page", if that helps. If you need a UK postcode to get anywhere with this, they're of the format "letter letter digit space digit letter letter". You get a choice of addresses from that postcode then. Phone numbers are O1xxx xxxxxxx where the x can be pretty much any number.
