The website does not use any DHTML, so I don't think you are having a
browser specific problem. If you are referring to the API Docs, they
are back up. Sourceforge was having some server problems that caused
the nightly build to stop mid-stream before the api docs were built.
What examples are you having problems in in Mozilla? I plan on
working on some of the bugs and wading through the patches this
weekend for mozilla.
