[WEB STANDARDS COMPLIANCE] Bituach Leumi - an Internet Explorer Holdout

[Omer Zak]

Today I tried to browse to the payments site of Bituach Leumi at:
https://b2b.btl.gov.il/b2b/framesetlogonanonymous.asp

The Enter (כניסה) button does not work for Firefox 2.0.0.19 (my browser
version).  In fact, the Web site rudely proclaims support only for
Internet Explorer (not even beta versions).

I think this Web site can qualify for the Oxymoron of the Decade.  They
are probably strict about browser support due to qualification testing
due to security concerns, yet they chose to support a browser notorious
for its security vulnerabilities.

Of course, there was no contact information in the page itself.  Their
Webmaster/s may be having a clue and are trying to hide from the deluge
of angry phone calls and E-mail messages...
