I reported this for 3.6.14 but it's still a problem in 3.6.15, so I'm posting this separately to ensure it is seen by the FF tech folks. Onload Javascript routine is still not working when the page reloads, yet the reset button that runs the same script does work. Onload also works in IE8, so this is a Firefox bug. This is a problem for my website's order form, so I hope this can be fixed soon!

I've recently come across a reoccurring problem with Javascript hyperlinks at various websites, and it's become quite an irritant.

I encountered the problem for the first time at allclassical.org, at their Listen Now tab at the top of the page.

This is the relevant code in the source: <a onClick="javascript:window.open('http://player.abacast.com/allclassical/allclassical.html','allclassical','height=450,width=620,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,toolbar=no,status=no,%20resizable=no')" href="javascript:;">

Click ToListen Now</a>


Clicking the link does nothing. The problem is not restricted to allclassical.org; I've noticed the problem at other sites as well. Anywhere there's an onClick link, the content behind it is unobtainable.

This is the first time I've ever had a serious (seriously exasperating, anyhow) problem with Firefox...and I've been using it since back when it was Netscape. Something weird is going on.

I really don't think it's my system at fault. I've just got through reformatting my hard drive and reinstalling my OS. Afterwards I noted that initially the Listen Now tab at AllClassical was working, but after installing Java Runtime Environment and other software the problem represented itself.

I'm running WinXP w/ SP3 on a relatively new Gigabyte AMD (Phenom II X2) system, with 4 GB of Corsair memory.

I really wish this problem could be solved. Firefox is my favorite browser, mainly due to how bookmarks are allowed to be handled.
