PHPRunner General questions

Hi
I am a long time user of PHPRunner. I have a number of 5.1, 5.2 and 5.3 applications of various complexity that I can access with both IE8 and Firefox.
About two months ago I started looking at moving a 5.3 application to the beta of 6.0. I had a few problems the most important of which were that i couldn't get it to work at all on Firefox. I put this down to beta "issues" and parked the project until the release version of PHPRunner6 was available. Unfortunately I am still having the same problem - applications even very basic single table no security ones are not working in Firefox. The symptoms are that the page displays OK, but none of the controls are working (buttons, ajax search, drop downs etc.) - though the icon based links (edit/view on the list page etc. ) do work ok. None of these problems occur when using IE
Initially I thought it might be something I am doing wrong with PHPR6 - but I tried accessing the demos of the theme design winners - and I get exactly the same problem; works in IE, not in Firefox
Sergey has looked at this and can't reproduce it - the demo I posted to demo account works fine for him on IE and Firefox.
Obvious solution - it has to be a problem with my Firefox install . . . except that I have the same problems with four different installs on different networks, different PCs and even different operating systems. I have tried disabling all plug-ins and add-ons, clearing cache and changing javascript settings in the browser - still can't get it to work.
I'm stuck - its got to be something simple but I can't see it. If you use Firefox would you mind trying my demo account at http://demo.asprunner.net/mark_elkington_blueyonder_co_uk/clubm/ and clicking the Add New button - does it have a roll-over highlight and take you to the Add Page. If it does - can you use the Back to List button to go back.
Unfortunately my main phpr apps are used in a firefox environment so I really have to solve it and I just can't see what the problem is.
thanks for your help

Thanks acpan - hmm maybe it is the newer version of Firefox that resolves the problem. Does PHPrunner rely on HTML5 or CSS3 features?. Unfortunately the standard Linux installs we use throughout the office is based on the Version 3 strand which is still being maintained by Mozilla.
Anybody tried the demo with a Version 3.6.N Firefox?.

Working fine here.
Firefox 7.0.1
Roll over and back to list work fine as well.
Good luck.

Thanks everyone
It was the version of Firefox the latest version on the "3" thread 3.6.23 was released in the last few days. This does NOT work with PHPrunner6 applications. This is a pity as many organisations are still using this produc thread (it comes as standard as part of supported Linux installs).
It seems to work fine with 7.0.1 on Linux, Windows7 and XP.
All I have to do now is persuade my organisation to update 2000 desktops to 7.0.1 ;-)

We are looking into the issue with Firefox 3.6.23. Hopefully this is something we can fix quick.

Many large companies are still using older versions of Firefox on a Linux exclusive distribution and to maintain relatively old application support (SAP, Java 1.5, etc.). For example, SESLinex, which runs in the Health Service of Extremadura in Spain and serves more than 5000 computers.

It is unfortunate that the applications generated by the new version of PHPRunner not be used in them.
