This page is supposed to allow you to search for a vehicle at a local dealer. 
However, in this build (2002091014) and previous ones I have installed this
feature does not work.  When you click on a "Choose" tab there are no choices. 
I have tried this page with IE 6.0 and it works fine.

They're detecting Gecko as NS 4.x in their code. On the two pages that I checked,
they have a <form> in a layer like so:

<DIV id="tb" style="width: 540px; left: 0px; top: 132px; position: absolute;
visibility: visible;">
<FORM NAME="search" method="get">
...

and erroneously detect Gecko as NS4 using the following code (in a couple of
places, perhaps throughout the entire site):

var ns = (navigator.appName.indexOf("Netscape") != -1) ? true : false;
var aForm = (ns) ? document.tb.document.search : document.search;
// ^ causes errors -- assuming NS4 layers API

The page seems to load/work correctly when I correct the above code to:
var aForm = (document.layers) ? document.tb.document.search : document.search;

-> Evangelism
