The site uses mobify.js - I guess it's an older version?

Wired.com's Mobify-powered mobile site loads fine on Firefox OS, so there must be some versioning issue here. I'll bring it up with the Mobify people - they were pretty helpful when we had trouble with Wired.

This will most likely be solved by switching to the latest version of Mobify.js
