links with mouseovers not working
When I go to sites built by yellowpages.com using Firefox 5, the top navigation doesn't work. The link shows correctly, but when I click on it, I don't go to that page. This only happens on navigation where mouseovers are used. An example is http://blueeagleroofing.onyellowpages.com. I've tried the page on Firefox 4 and IE 8, and the links work as expected.
While troubleshooting, I restarted in safe mode with all addons disabled and set my preferences back to default. Neither of these changed the problem.

My buttons do not work with Firefox 5, and appears to be only Firefox 5. I believe I am experiencing the same as this poster.
Here is an example of the buttons not working in Firefox 5, http://bw3pg.onyellowpages.com.
I've had this site this and many other similar sites for years now. It has always been working in Firefox until Firefox 5. I've checked FF3.6 and the buttons are fine there. In addition to IE8 and FF4, I also notice the buttons work just fine with IE9, Chrome 12.
Firefox 5 supports a click() function, but doesn't allow to open a new URL that way.
Firefox 3 doesn't support the click and throws an exception that uses location = url;
function TG_doLink(url, target, args)
magicLink = document.getElementById("TGLink");
magicLink.href = url;
magicLink.target = (target ? target : "_self");
magicLink.click();
<a id="TGLink" style="display:none;" href="#">lnk</a>
