go to http://club.dx.com/reviews/photos/46136/add

Click the orange "browse" button next to select image. On Chrome and IE it opens a file picker box. On firefox it returns href="javascript:void(0);"

I have duplicated this error using windows XP with firefox 18.0.2 and 19

I saved the source code of that page in chrome and firefox and Winmerge says the files are identical.

I restarted firefox in SAFEMODE and the problem is still there. I created a NEW PROFILE and the problem is still there

It works if I click the input field and the left part of the Browse button and you get the tooltip, but not if I click the right half of the Browse button and you see the javascript:void(0); pop-up.

There are two input fields and the first one has type="file" and z-index:2 that is used to select a file.
The second input field is a span with class="fakefile" and z-index:1 with a second input field and a Browse link to style the appearance of the input area.
The first field end halfway on the Browse button on Linux.

So this looks like an example of bad page coding. 

<span class="con pr">
 <input name="PicName[0]" class="file required maxImgSize" title="Please select an image (png, jpg, bmp, gif)" type="file">
 <span class="fakefile">
  <input class="text">
  <a class="browse" href="javascript:void(0);" alt="browse"></a>
 </span>
</span>

Note that on Linux the width of input fields is usually determined by the number of characters and the the font-size and in the case the first input field isn't wide enough to cover the fake input field and browse button. The width setting (174px) in the CSS code doesn't seem the get honored.
