javascript tab not working

I use Intel's Integrated BMC Web Console at work to manage installs, etc., for systems. As of Firefox 38 the tabs at the top, e.g. "Server Health", "Configuration", "Remote Control", no longer work. This works fine with Firefox 37. I also tried it with 39.0b3 which seems to have the same problem as 38. When I mouse-over the tabs the labels do switch to bold and brighten showing that I'm over the tab, but nothing happens when I click on them.

Sorry, forgot to mention that I'm running Firefox 38.05 on Ubuntu 15.04 but I'm seeing the problem using 38.05 on Windows 7 as well.

Do you see any errors in the Browser Console (Firefox/Tools > Web Developer)?

When I open the Web Console it shows:

Use of document.createAttribute() is deprecated. Use element.setAttribute() instead. header_imp.js:360:0 Use of attributes' nodeValue attribute is deprecated. Use value instead. header_imp.js:361:0 Use of setAttributeNode() is deprecated. Use setAttribute() instead. header_imp.js:362:0 TypeError: oLeftNav is null

Using 37.0.2 it works fine, i.e. same URL same everything, just different browser version.

Examining the element I see:

<a id="STR_TOPNAV_SYSTEM_INFORMATION" class="buttons" href="javascript:void(0)" lNavObj="SYSINFO_LEFTNAV"></a> | <a id="STR_TOPNAV_SERVER_HEALTH" class="buttons" href="javascript:void(0)" lNavObj="SRVR_HEALTH_LEFTNAV"></a> | <a id="STR_TOPNAV_CONFIGURATION" class="buttons" href="javascript:void(0)" lNavObj="CONFIG_LEFTNAV"></a> | <a id="STR_TOPNAV_REMOTE_CONTROL" class="buttons" href="javascript:void(0)" lNavObj="RMCNTRL_LEFTNAV"></a> 

       </td>
   </tr>

I'm not sure what else to look at. If there's more information you need, just let me know.

Sorry if there was a double post, Safari seems to be doing odd things...
