Don't be silly. I never had a problem with JavaScript in Firefox and I never read that anybody had one. If the JavaScript on the site "doesn't work" this usually means that the script is broken. Furthermore, as already said, I can't see why it would be the fault of FreeBSD developers/contributors when Mozilla software doesn't work. If you want to get help you should perhaps give more detail about what problem(s) is (are). After all, if you don't like FreeBSD you don't have to use it. Jona
