Given

  <a onMouseOver="showHideLayers(...">

and 

  function showHideLayers() { 
      //...
      if (navigator.appName == 'Netscape' && 
	  document.layers != null) {
	  // do something
      } else if (document.all != null) { 
	  // do something else
      }
      // otherwise, do nothing
  }

then this is functioning as designed.

The site had been completely re-designed and it's now WFM with Firefox 4 beta8 on Windows 7.

Marking as FIXED.
