NWC: Maybe Firefox requires quotes around the attributes, in the page HTML? Just a guess. I don't think it's a matter of popup blocking, since Firefox permits on-request popups, unless the user has a stricter rule in force.

I recently discovered that Select Option doesn't script the same way in IE5.1-MacOS9 as it does in IE6-W98. Although that doesn't seem to apply here, it may well be that for Form Input, Firefox is enforcing an HTML or JavaScript rule that IE allows to slide. On one of my pages, scripting worked just fine in all but Gecko-based browsers - because Gecko was very strict. Fortunately, the Gecko browsers can use a script debugger that point to the exact line of code that causes the problem.

i meant to say that the page opened in the same window, instead of a new window

Yes it does open properly.
Please check the options of Firefox!
You may want to change the default value of some options there (For me, typically allowing to type the name of links instead of cliking, since it help to automatize things).

It seems that on NWC as in Firefox you tend to ask before trying yourself.
