http://bpterkep.index.hu tries to use Autodesk's MapGuide Viewer plugin, but
fails: after setting up the plugin, the map is displayed correctly, but none of
the control radio buttons at the top work (for example it's impossible to zoom
or scroll the map).
In fact, it might be some JavaScript problem, or maybe the page is screwed up, I
don't know...

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. install autodesk mapguide viewer plugin (with manual setup, otherwise it
won't find mozilla)
2. open http://bpterkep.index.hu
3. click on any of the buttons (for example try to zoom in on the map)

Actual Results:  Nothing happens, the map doesn't change.

Expected Results:  The map should have been displayed in greater detail (that
is, it should have been zoomed).

Probably the problem comes from non-standard javascript usage?
not sure if the plugin 'is supposed' to even work if it's not 6.x or mozilla
compliant. 
which version of the plugin are you running?

From the Autodesk website:
For Netscape browsers running on Windows platform, you should download the 
Plugin version of the MapGuide Viewer (MGPlugin60.exe)

There is a different version for IE users.  Reporter, could you please report 
your version number and re-confirm bug with a new build?

Thank you,

The plugin is using LiveConnect for scriptability which is not supported in
Mozilla. Please see the mozilla.org articles on how to script Mozilla plugins:
