if you go to http://www.saab.com, and choose USA, Mozilla ends up displaying a
blank page. Both Netscape and IE display the page correctly.

I think it is a Java-related problem though I'm not 100% sure.

From Java debug screen I get the following:

Error: ref.layers have no properties

Source file: http://www.saabusa.com/js/dhtml/dHtml.core.Funcs.js
Line: 193 Columnn: 0

This never worked in all prior versions of mozilla as well.

This is Mozilla version 0.8, Win98.
I see the same thing with Linux build 2001021606
The site tried to fix their JS for Mozilla/NS6, but did not do a very good job:

function initBox(nestref) {
	if (!Box.set) Box.set = true
	if (is.NS) {
		if (nestref) ref = eval('document.'+nestref+'.document')
		else {nestref = ''; ref = document;}
		for (var i=0; i<ref.layers.length; i++) {
... and so on
