User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/0.9.1 StumbleUpon/1.993

In general, the style elements are not being properly generated.  Specifically,
in the page https://www.yodlee.com/newarch/index.do, the form elements should be
contained inside of a colored (pale green), outlined box.  The words "Log In"
should be contained in an attached tab to this box (upper left corner) with
white lettering on a blue background.  There should be a horizontal orange bar
directly below the light brown bar.  The text "help" should be in orange.  In
general, the page looks very primitive, as compared to the "correct" display of
this page in other browsers.  I suspect a problem with the javascript or CSS
handling.  

If you have an account with yodlee and log in, you will see that these same
problems continue on the interior pages.

This website IS displayed properly with the following browsers:
Firefox for OS X prior to v 1.0.2 (not totally positive about the exact rev)
Firefox for Windows
Safari for OS X
Internet Explorer for OS X

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Simply navigate to https://www.yodlee.com/newarch/index.do with Firefox for
OS X, v 1.0.2 or later.

2.  Now navigate to the same page with Safari or IE for OS X, or with Firefox
for Windows.

3.  Contrast and compare.

Actual Results:  
You will see a striking difference between how Firefox for OS X displays the
page and how other browsers display the page.  See firefox_capture.tiff in
attachments.

Expected Results:  
see safari_capture.tiff in attachments

Looks identical to that displayed in IE (and the safari screenshot) to me.
Possibly only a Mac problem, but I suspect its more likely that this is an issue
that has been fuxed on the trunk.

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050527
Firefox/1.0+ ID:2005052712

I'm seeing the problem on:
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050528
Firefox/1.0+

So this was not fixed on the trunk.

From the JS consle:

Error: The stylesheet https://www.yodlee.com/newarch/stylesheet.default.do was
not loaded because its MIME type, "text/html", is not "text/css".

Prior bugs (bug 261298, bug 261300) seem to indicate that this used to be a
warning, not an error, and the CSS would be processed anyway . Was this changed?
Why?

For the record: the reason that this one behaves differently is that it's in
Standards Compliance mode (thanks, ajschult).

Just installed Firefox 1.5 for Mac.  No change.

Not sure whether the site changed or Firefox changed, but I can view the site properly now.

Using 1.5.0.2
