Details

This is a regression from 3.X. Load http://www.bankofamerica.com and try to use the "Bank | Borrow | Invest | Protect | Plan" toolbar to navigate the site. With FF3.X a menu appears on mouseover, in FF4 nothing happens. The error console reports an error assigning a value to an undeclared variable. Spoofing the user agent does not fix the issue. It seems as though FF4 is requiring a more strict interpretation of JavaScript than FF3.X.

Jerry, bankofamerica.com is incorrectly using the 'use strict' clause in one of their site JS files. This would have gone unnoticed in Firefox 3.6.x but in Firefox 4 and Chrome 11, means the site breaks. BOA need to fix their site - and I've contacted them (in the bug this has been made a dupe of) by email but got no response. Unfortunately banks tend to ignore anyone that isn't a customer - it may be that you will have more luck if you contact them and link back to bug 639190. Thanks!
Unfortunately, they ignore customers also. I've let them know, but it's unlikely that their call-center folks even understand what I'm saying.
They have a nice "feedback" link on bottom of this page: http://www.bankofamerica.com/onlinebanking/index.cfm?template=browser_help_and_tips#browserhelp (apparently appears only at first load)
