See the blog post for a working example of problem code: http://jpgrace.com/blog/2009/12/firefox-bug-hover-cannot-bind-to-a-classname-with-css-in-html-4-01-transitional/
I've tested this in multiple versions of FF and on both Mac and PC.  All versions of the Firefox browser exhibit this bug.
Version: unspecified → 3.5 Branch
html 4.01 transitional without full url triggers quirks mode

In that case it is a known behavior:
