Giles et. al:

Thanks so much for finding this problem! In my desperation to access the
library site, I'd even tried installing Firebug to determine what the
problem was. Now it's good to know that it is not an application layer
issue.

I should note that President's Choice Financial's online banking site
(https://www.txn.banking.pcfinancial.ca/) is also afflicted by this
problem. I have written them a note through their feedback form.
