page that I have pasted above....every time

Actual Results:  
I was left with the entire page of computer script that I pasted about. I
attempted it several times, all with the same results.

Expected Results:  
It should have displayed my choices for a multi-page template This is a major
problem, as I am supposed to create a website as my term paper for school; and
Firefox is the only browser that I use. =>(

I have looked through Verizon's website and cannot find any mention of supported
browsers for their Site Builder tool.

Thom I suggest that you contact Verizon's DSL support and find out if Firefox is
a supported web browser for Site Builder tool. If they say no then ask if
Netscape 7.x (7.0, 7.1. 7.2) is supported web browser for the Site Builder tool.
Most sites that work with Netscape 7.x. work with Firefox.

It is possible that Verizon designed the Site Builder tool for Internet Explorer
only.
Also you can find this bug by loging into bugzilla.mozilla.org and clicking on
the  'My Bugs' in the Saved Searches area at the bottom of the page.
