Yep, I tried it with FF4 and got Ford as well. FF3 was fine. Very strange.

It does look like an FF4 incompatibility. I don't know much about a browser named for an old car's bumper.

Remember when we used to always be able to say "Blame Microsoft" and were almost always right to do so?

I know it's not quite the same, but I STILL feel the pain of all the work I did on iHub to accommodate WebTV, so I hope nobody's too bugged if I just wait this one out and let the browser folks fix it.

More and more sites are using Flash these days for rendering the whole friggin' page. From a gee-whiz perspective, it spins hell outta the prop on my beanie, but I'm getting mighty tired of having to fight FF's too-aggressive caching of such pages.

For all I know IE might have the same problem since I'm sure it's really Adobe's problem. But since letting someone else use my computer once (and only once), I've been unable to get any Adobe product to work in IE.
