This site uses IE-only DOM reference (document.all). It needs to
be updated to W3C compliant DOM reference.
Confirmed. 
Shoshannah, I just noticed that you can't confirm a bug!
That is ridiculous. I changed your permissions. Now you can
confirm and edit bugs all you want.

ynet has been contacted many many times, and they refuse to fix the site. 
the most ironic part, is that they have a linux forum, that you can not read
with linux.

Marking WONTFIX. if you want it fixed, I guess you will have to contact them
yourself.

letters on it.

Do not use WONTFIX as a Tec Evangelism resolution. Instead mark sites which have
responded that they do not intend to update their content with a not-responsive
