Hi,

I've had problem one some, but I don't use the forms list so not sure about 
3. For 2, it's the way firefox formats everything. Like, in IE, if you go to 
a pages navigation links, you may notice a blank line between each link. in 
firefox, pressing down arrow reads you the next link, without saying 
"blank." So this is a firefox thing.
