Don't lie to me. I'm using Mozilla/4.76. <about:mozilla> produces the
expected result.

Don't lie to me. I always have style sheets disabled, and (if I disable
Javascript until the main page has loaded, to get around the browser
blocking) I can read your documents just fine, with no choking whatsoever.
Ironically, reading your documents in 4.x with style sheets disabled (or
listening to them in a speech browser, or viewing them in Lynx, or ...)
reveals that you have eschewed structural markup in favor of entirely
visual presentation. Instead of <ol><li>, you have <div class="indent">
<div class="toc-entry">A. And instead of <h1>, you have <div
class="h1">!!! Deary me. That is truly breathtaking in its
missing-the-pointness -- not to mention taking more time and effort on
your part than just using the structural elements would have been.
Whatever you do, do not let Ian Hickson or David Baron see these pages,
or your safety cannot be guaranteed.

Don't lock particular browsers out of Web sites to do with Mozilla,
especially browsers which are previous versions of Mozilla, and
especially when you're wrong.
Don't put up a dialog when the user enters a Web page.
And don't break the Back button by using a non-HTTP redirect
<http://www.useit.com/alertbox/990530.html>.
Or, to summarize: Grrrr.
