There is a JavaScript bug in both the Linux and Windows versions
After loging into http://wwww.verizon.net
Click on <My Account>
Fill in <User ID> and <Password>
Can't Login.

JavaScript Console reports:

document.getElementById() instead.

Now go to http://netmail.verizon.net and login.
Now can view mail.
Next Logout.
Now Login again.
Will see a blank page at 
https://sso.verizon.net/portal/ProcessLoginServlet

JavaScript Console shows:
Warning: The stylesheet https://sso.verizon.net/portal/login/msnvol.css was
loaded as CSS even though its MIME type, "text/html", is not "text/css".
Error: window.navigate is not a function

Now click <Back button>
Will see a Welcome page and now I am logged in.

This happens both in firefox-1.0installer.tar.gz for linux and in Firefox Setup
1.0 for Windows

At the risk of sounding supercilious, why don't you "Use W3C standard
document.getElementById() instead", just as the Javascript told you!

From your information the present behaviour is correct, and this report
is INVALID as by design, not a bug, works et cetera.

Has nothing to do with JavaScript console component.

The only errors I can find now are in the CSS (invalid selectors and such) that aren't breaking the page, so this is FIXED as far as I'm concerned.
