Can't load bookmarked banking login page
I am trying to load my banking login page (https://ib.nab.com.au/nabib/index.jsp) but it won't load in firefox without the main banking page open (http://www.nab.com.au). I assume there is some sort of security in place which is causing this. I am able to load the login page only without having the main page open in safari which shows it is possible.
I have forced the login screen to open in a new tab (changed setting for browser.link.open_newwindow.restriction to 0 in about:config), it previously opened in a new window.
I am using firefox 29.0.1 on a Macbook Air (OS X Lion 10.7.5).
I tried disabling all browser extensions as well to see if that changed anything but it didn't.
I would like to keep using firefox but at the moment safari is easier to use. Is there any way around this in firefox so I can go straight to the login page from my bookmark without having to go via the main banking page?

I tried it and had the same results. So it's likely a web site issue. I did notice that https://ib.nab.com.au/nabib/index.jsp opened in a new window from the main page. After you are logged in, do you work on the same page as the login, or go back to the main page?
There is script like this running on that page:
// Force this page to only be opened within the Parent frame,
// and NOT within any iframe.
if (window.parent != window.self) {
window.parent.location.href=window.location.href;
}
isSafari = (navigator.appVersion.indexOf("Safari")!=-1);
// PD - Special handling of Safari which does not set the window.name properly
if (!isSafari) {
if(!window.opener||window.name!="ib") {
location.replace("http://www.nab.com.au/");
}
}
Thanks for your help.
Fred after I log in, I work on the same page as the login
cor-el, does that script mean safari will open the log in page on its own but firefox won't? I tried noscript which allows the login page to load on its own but then I can't log in
I have the same problem with 2 brokerage accounts. One firm emailed and stated that Firefox no longer opens their web site and they were looking into the cause. It has been a month and still nothing.
