All online map sites stopped functioning after the 11/14/08 upgrade of Firefox.  This includes maps.google, maps.yahoo and maps.live.  I can get to each site, but none of the functions work.  In other words, I cannot searh for a location or get directions from one address to another.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to maps.google.com
2.  Fill in an address to locate on a map
3. Click the "Search Maps" button.  Nothing happens.
Actual Results:  
Nothing

Expected Results:  
Map should change to the address I am trying to locate and there should be a marker on it.

I tested Google Maps and it works fine for me. Have you tried:

- Firefox's safe-mode to exclude extension/theme problems
- a new profile
- a reinstall in a new empty folder?

This is a mass search for bugs that are in the Firefox General component, are
UNCO, and have not been changed for 500 days and have an unspecified version. 

Reporter, can you please update to Firefox 3.6.10, create a fresh profile,
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/managing+profiles, and test again. If you
still see the bug, please update this bug. If the issue is gone, please set the
resolution to RESOLVED > WORKSFORME.
