And what makes you think that it's a bug in the browser and not in the page if it works only ion IE8 ?

from the Firefox error Console:

Error: missing ( before formal parameters
Source File: http://www.procon.sp.gov.br/admin/htmlarea/htmlarea.asp?htmlarea=resposta&readonly=true&fontBodySize=10
Line: 132, Column: 18
Source Code:
 function document.onreadystatechange() { 

That is IE DOM synatx and not supported

You as user can of course report bugs here and we want such bugs reports.
For rendering bugs you should be sure that it's a browser bug and not a bug in the page as in most cases.

A good sign for a browser bug would be that it works in multiple browsers but not in Firefox or that it works in older Firwefox Versions but not in newer Versions. 
That you example only works in IE usually means that it's not a browser bug.
