Doesn't work in Firefox 3.6.16 either, or in Opera 11.00 or Safari 5.0.1 for that matter.

Either your JavaScript is something that only IE can read or the fact that the other browsers are rendering your web page in the Quirks Mode is causing that issue.

Microsoft FrontPage 4.0 just does not create pages that will view properly in anything except for IE8 and earlier versions.

Document.layers and document.all are not supported by Firefox.
That is a very old script that doesn't work in modern browsers that use document.getElementById 

if((navigator.appName == "Netscape") && (parseInt(navigator.appVersion.substring(0, 1)) >= 4))
 doc_els=document.layers
else
 return
