It works fine with Firefox 6.0. It's possible that your version simply doesn't work with that site. Have you tried any of the options in FF Preferences, such as deleting cookies, caches, etc?

"Works" fine in FF 5.0.1 and Lion. I use the term very loosely as that "Enter" link is both stupid and redundant. Why make a user click another button just to see what's on your site. "Hello! I came to your site and you won't show it to me. Why do you have the "door" closed?
And secondly, the wind then opens full-screen! There may be a javascript doing that or it may be the "feature" in Lion. Either way, it is imposing the developers desires instead of the viewers/customers/users wants. Who gave them that right? rant.gif

OK, the stupid "closed front door" page does not work with javascript disabled. That's fine by me, however, since it seems to enable so much other unpleasant behavior. But make sure you have javascript enabled and see if that helps. You may also have some javascript protection Add-ons that are preventing the javascripts from running. With so much progress being made with CSS3 and html5, the days of javascript dangers and overuse are hopefully ending. clap.gif Of course, that won't mean much as long as web-designers rely on what they thought they had to or could do. rolleyes.gif

With FF 6, I get that behavior in Snow Leopard.

They're probably in the FF plist, if what you are saying is that you keep your site passwords in FF. I use an app called 1Password made by a great little <Canadian company> that does that and so much more, and it keeps them available, no matter what browser I might be using. clap.gif

By the way, what is "safe mode" in FF? dntknw.gif

1. Am I wrong in remembering that you seem to be having many problems with FF?
2. Is it always the same version?
3. Have you tried any suggested actions:
    A. Move the FF plist out of its normal location which will force FF to create a new one.
    B. Log in to another user account.
    C. Reinstall FF or make sure it is the latest version that will run in the OS you have.
    D. Empty caches/set them to zero or as small as possible.

Once you click Enter, you're taken to a page that's all Flash. If you have Flash disabled, or if it's not installed, you get nothing.
