When visiting the first URL <
http://corporate.bricsnet.com/about/support/newversion3.jsp?site=1 >
I get two alert pop-ups:

1. /Anonymous/anonymous/Eng-Us/Bai/version.js: The system cannot find the path
specifiec.

2. /Anonymous/anonymous/Eng-Us/Icad/version.js: The system cannot find the path
specifiec.

In JavaScript console:
- - -
Error: this.mMissedIconCache has no properties
Source File:
chrome://global/content/bindings/tabbrowser.xml#tabbrowser.addToMissedIconCache()
Line: 2

Error: version is not defined

Under the header "Download Latest Software Version" I see three links,
the third of which is identical to the URL in reporter's step 2.
When I click that link, I get two pop-ups:

1. /Anonymous/anonymous/Eng-Us/Icad/version.js: The system cannot find the path
specifiec.

2. If you have purchased this product via the Bricsnet E-store,
your serial number is your License Key.

Smells server side bugs?

In the HTML at the site, I see two of these:

<script SRC="ftp://ftp.bricscad.com/anonymous/Eng-Us/Bai/version.js"                   
        TYPE="text/javascript"></SCRIPT>

<script SRC="ftp://ftp.bricscad.com/anonymous/Eng-Us/Icad/version.js"           
        TYPE="text/javascript"></SCRIPT>


I'm not sure you can use SRC="ftp://something..." inside a <SCRIPT> tag!
Doesn't it have to be SRC="http://something..." ?  Reassigning to DOM for 
further triage; I don't know what component is responsible for loading
external JS scripts...

Klaus points out:

I can also confirm that IE6 has no problem with the site -

[Fabian Guisset]

The URL no longer seems to be valid. I don't have access to a ftp server so I
can't test that ftp urls work for scripts, so if someone could test that it
would be great. Thanks!
