User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040913 Firefox/0.10.1

Once logged into the  game at http://www.dragonclawstudio.com/faith/, the combo
boxes don't function properly.  I have tested it with IE (recommended), Safari,
and Opera.  Firefox/Mozilla is the only browser with the problem.  Once you make
a selection in a combo box, the text is not displayed and it's not actually
selected.  This game also has hotkeys (like pressing 'S' will give you the
status), but when you're composing a message and have the text box selected, it
shouldn't follow hotkeys.  Also - the build city map renders okay, but you
aren't able to select every tile...only every other tile.  I know this seems
like a low priority, but I love Firefox and use multiple operating systems.  It
would be nice to use one browser, but the developer insists on people using IE.
 There are thousands of people playing this MMORPG.  Thanks!

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Log-in to the site (create an account)
2. Once signed up, select Armies | Arrange Armies
3a. Try to move a unit to a general using the combo box.
3b. Try to compose a message in the SOD (typing a hotkey will redirect you)
3c. Try to explore your province in Build City map.  Every other tile is disabled.

Actual Results:  
3a.  Combo box is blank after selection, and submission informs you that no
selection was made.
3b.  A hotkey is executed while typing in a textbox form.
3c.  Every other tile is disabled.

Expected Results:  
3a.  Combo box should have a valid selection and submission should work.
3b.  You should be able to type in a textbox without hotkeys working.
3c.  Every tile on screen (within your explored area) should be selectable.

I have tried this using Firefox 0.10.1 for Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X.  I have
also tried Mozilla.  The site reports that they "require" IE, but it works in
Safari (with the exception of the Build City map (3c)) and it works in Opera fine.

James, is this still a problem?

Did you ever contact them and tell them about the problem?
