I see the same thing in Mozilla 1.8b2. Moving to Core.

This is almost certainly a bug in the page's JS.

When I do save the page in Firefox and then load it in IE6, I get the same
problem in IE6.
When I switch the user agent from Firefox to IE6, I don't get the problem anymore.

My guess is that the server sends different responses depending on the browser.
I did find a user agent sniffer in the js code (BrowserStats()), but that didn't
seem to do anything.

Ah, if changing the UA string fixes this, it's a bug in the site.

INCOMPLETE due to lack of activity since the end of 2009.

Sorry for the bugspam; filter on "NO MORE PRE-2010 TE BUGS" to remove.
