Clicking any one of these links gives the follwing error in
Tools > Web Development > JavaScript Console:

     Error: window.divs.maplayer has no properties
     Source File: http://www.theaa.com/javascript/mapping.js
     Line: 294


The JavaScript variable |divs| is initialized as follows in the file
http://www.theaa.com/javascript/dynamicobjects.js:


function initialiseDivs()
{
  /*Create divs object - an array of divs with cross browser DHTML methods */
  divs = new Array();

  if (document.all)
    ie_initialiseDivs(document);
  else 
    ns_initialiseDivs(document);
}


function ns_initialiseDivs(doc)
{
  for (var i=0;i<doc.layers.length;i++)
  {
    if (doc.layers[i].id)
    {
      divs[doc.layers[i].id] = new Div(doc.layers[i]);
      divs[divs.length] = divs[doc.layers[i].id];
      ns_initialiseDivs(doc.layers[i].document);
    }
  }
  nsie_setDivMethods();
  ns_setDivMethods();
}



This is outdated code that relies on |layers|, a non-W3C proprietary
feature of NN4.x, no longer supported in Mozilla/Netscape.

Note: there are earlier messages in the JavaScript Console as one
navigates the AA site, when these initialization functions are run.

It all comes to a head when we hit those "next" links, because
then we need the |divs| variable, which has not initialized
successfully in Mozilla due to the earlier errors.

Reassigning to Tech Evangelism component. Compare bug 149610, 
"theaa.com - map isn't displayed - doc.layers javascript errors"
