Firefox 4 Not Showing Text in Input Field

When new users visit applesliced.com, a jquery popup appears to request the users zip code. Prior to Firefox 4 (and in all other browsers I have tested), this popup loads quickly and flawlessly.

In Firefox, the "Save" image (input type="image") frequently hangs and the Input text field (input type="text") hangs for several seconds before the user-entered text can be seen. I have tried three different jquery plug-ins to display this popup. Input text fields elsewhere on the site work correctly, but for whatever reason when an HTML "input" is loaded there is a delay in rendering.

Once a user enters their zip code, you can recreate this problem by clicking "My Zip Code (edit)" on the right side of the navigation menu.

Fixed. Removed the opacity mention from my style sheet.
