Well, that page did not work for me with Firefox ESR 52.6.0 (64-bit) on my
Wheezy system, even after enabling Java and Javascript and disabling NoScript.
Such a failure is unusual for me--occasionally, I have found a few pages with
a similar problem, and without knowing exactly, I attribute the problem to the
webpage using more advanced features than my version of Firefox can deal with.
I may try the same page later on my Jessie (iirc) system with a more up-to-
date Firefox. (It is a pain / frustrating to type in that information and
then have it fail to do anything, but this (the subject of the petition) is an
important issue.)
