After updating, Firefox works fine, except that it won't open one particular page: http://mojheroj.com. It doesn't even try to load it, just displays a blank page. After checking with some friends, they seem to have the same problem. The page works in IE8 and Chrome, as well as older versions of Firefox (I checked on 3.6.8) and it works on 4.0 beta 7. I tried clearing the cache, reinstalling, opening the page in safe-mode, checking my code, but nothing helped and I'm at a loss. The website in question is mine and I need it to work in Firefox, so please help me. It's done in Joomla, with some jQuery. If there is something I should change in my code to make it work in Firefox again, I'd really like to know. Thank you.

Try posting at the Web Development / Standards Evangelism forum at MozillaZine. The helpers over there are more knowledgeable about web page development issues with Firefox.

Looks like a problem with the server configuration.

With a Firefox user agent I get: 

Status: HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error

It works with an IE user agent.

Thank you both for replying!

@the-edmeister: I will try asking in that forum, thanks.

@cor-el: Do you have any idea what could be causing a problem with the Firefox user agent? Is that something I can solve on my own or do I need to get in touch with my hosting provider and have them fix something on the server? I'd really appreciate if you could help me solve this! But if you can't find the time, you've already helped me a lot by pointing me in the right direction. Thank you.

Just yesterday I updated to Firefox 4.0, and Java version 25, in going to a dealers site to look through his inventory, I get and error showing that jQuery needs to be used to run the script on the site. I have Vista SP2 64Bit Home premium and a 6GB memory. Ran same test on this site, with IE8, Opera, Chrome, and they all failed. The site: [ http://www.jarrett-gordonfordofwinterhaven.dealerconnection.com/ ] using new vehicle tab, and search inventory takes one to another page, where you click on the link for all his show rooms, and the error shows up with script shown on that page. In discussion with dealer, he said it works fine with IE9, so loaded it into my pc and now it works, but none of the other browsers will. Is it some thing missing in Firefox or others as well.Even using the add on allowing it to think it is IE, and it fails. While this is not a serious matter for me it could be a problem if any other web sites utilize a similar set up.
