1. Enter wwww.vw.com.br/contato
2. Click in the combo box
3. Nothing happens.

Sorry about that.
So, you can confirm this tech evangelism bug?

Why this bug is tagged as "UNCONFIRMED"? Because my mistake about following the
guidelines?

Daniel, when you go to IRC, wait longer for someone to notice. Not everyone who
seems to be there actually is.

I can't confirm this because I don't really know enough about JS to know if
there is a page problem rather than a Mozilla problem. When I open the combo box
with current Linux trunk I am able to select from the items presented. I can't
do more because I speak and read only English. To confirm probably requires
someone who knows JS and speaks and writes the language of the page.

OTOH, you could write to that site's webmaster and point out that his page
doesn't validate.

We have a form you can base a letter upon. See the link at

Many sites respond better to complaints from users than complaints from browser
developers.
