The following javascript code worked in versions of FF before 3.6 and doean't work anymore.    Why ?   Is this going to be fixed ?   It appears that the Document object model has changed.
            if ((divs[i].parentElement.pathname != undefined && 
(divs[i].parentElement.pathname.indexOf("pushin hover") >= 0 || 
divs[i].parentElement.pathname.indexOf("pushpin hover") >= 0)) || 
(divs[i].className == "" && divs[i].innerHTML.substr(0, 6) == "<SPAN>"))
		    {
		        if (divs[i].innerHTML.substr(0, 6) != "<LABEL" && 
divs[i].innerHTML.substr(0, 11) != "<DIV style=")
		        {
		            // iEle.href = divs[i].outerHTML;
		            pEle = new pushPinElement();
		            var s1 = divs[i].innerHTML;
		            if (divs[i].innerHTML.substr(0,5) != "<SPAN")
		            {
		                var c1 = s1.indexOf("http:");
		                var c2 = s1.indexOf('"',c1);
		                pEle.href = s1.substring(c1,c2);
		            }   
		            else
		            {
		                pEle.href = s1;
		            }
		            if (divs[i].innerHTML.substr(0, 6) == "<SPAN>") {
		                pEle.offsetLeft = 
                                  divs[i].offsetParent.offsetLeft;
		                pEle.offsetTop = divs[i].offsetParent.offsetTop;
		            }
		            else {
		                pEle.offsetLeft = 
                                     divs[i].parentElement.offsetLeft;
		                pEle.offsetTop = 
                                     divs[i].parentElement.offsetTop;
		            }
		            pEle.offsetHeight = divs[i].offsetHeight;
			    pEle.offsetWidth = divs[i].offsetWidth;
			    pushpinurls.push(pEle);
			    }
			}

parentElement is part of the MS DHTML DOM, not the standard W3C DOM.
