Nothing appeared in the drop down and I coukd not type anythign either. This
works just fine in IE, so that got me to thinking ...

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to the site and sign in
2. Choose to update profile
3. Try to put in TX (my State) and save - error message every time

Actual Results:  
Reset data and went to IE, accessed the same form and updates it, then returned
to Mozilla and saw the new updated information, did 1-2-3 above again with the
same results

Expected Results:  
Accessed a drop down list of States and allowed me to choose any one of them,
fill in and save/update

Looks like a bug in the page. I see the JS Console error:

Error: document.all is not a function

Is this still an issue? Tried logging in with my Hotmail user/pass, but couldn't find any such form to test.
