(Whiteboard: [LAYER])

on this page click the pulldown menu and you should notice that the contents on the left side disappears.
Which pull down menu do you mean? (I count 4 HTML SELECT boxes). What content disappears--pictures, text, all? By "disappears" you mean replaced by grey space? Which build of Mozilla are you using? What Platform/OS? Thanks.
Looking at the source of this page, I noticed a few things that may be causing problems. First, is this input tag: <input type="hidden" name="SourceQueryText" value="(mag <contains> rb) and ((page <contains> 01) or (page <contains> 1))">. It contains the less than and greater than characters, which I believe are illegal in attribute values. Second, this page makes use of document.layers and document.all which will not be supported in mozilla. See http://sites.netscape.net/ekrock/standards.html for more information.
moving this to HTMLForm Control the pull-down menu under woman.com shoping is causing the bug. I agree with dan about the .layers being probably the source, and therefore a invalid bug

Per an email from adhati: "If it's an invalid Layers tag formation, why does netscape 4.7 diplay it just fine. NS 4.7 supports the feature but not NS 5.0???" rickg, could you comment please. Is this behavior valid with Gecko?

The page does use layers in it's script; 5.0 doesn't support layers due to it's proprietary nature (we suggest using CSS absolute positioning instead). There are also bugs in the code as pointed out by dan and doronr. Reassigning to harish for triage of the remaining problems.

I've snet them feedback on the layers problem, so if it turns out that that's the only problem on the site, you can mark this INVALID.

MMM...I clicked the pulldown menus ( all of 'em ) and nothing unusual happens.. In other words..contents do not disappear! Am I missing anything?
