Page author recommends IE, here's how that displays
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0) Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040913 Firefox/0.10 The page at https://access.usbank.com/ does not display the left hand navigation bar or the complete header logo, and it spews html comments in the rendered output. The html comments on the page are not standards compliant, having more than two dashes after and before the start and end tags. The page would render correctly in quirks mode, but the doctype declaration is for HTML 4.01 Transitional (also misspelled) forcing mozilla into strict mode. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Go to https://access.usbank.com/ 2.View badly formatted page Actual Results: Navigation bar and header is not rendered. "End Footer" comment is displayed when it should not. Excerpts from the page source: <!doctype html public "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3c.org/TR/html14/loose.dtd"> -- Notice the invalid URI and the questionable case (according to spec). <!-------------------------------START GlobalNavigation.jsp--------------------- --------> <!------------------------------------------------------------> <!-- JSP File = GlobalNavigation.jsp --> <!-- Location cpsApp1/USBCommCare/jsp/Common --> <!------------------------------------------------------------> -- The third and fourth lines here are valid, but there are many instances of bad comment tags like the first line. This may be a consequence of some authoring tool, but that's no excuse.

Conforming summary to TFM item 10 at http://www.mozilla.org/projects/tech-evangelism/site/procedures.html#file-new Reporter, when you file a TE bug, please follow the reporting guidelines. Authors who recommend IE can be referred to http://members.optusnet.com.au/~night.owl/morons.html if rational and courteous pleas, such as to validate, fail to help.

After 11/19, the doctype declaration is no longer misspelled. However the invalid comment tags still remain.

Invalid comment tags have been fixed and calls to tech support now state that Mozilla based browsers are supported.
