I can reproduce your problem here with Sawfish and Metacity.  It looks
like BestBuy may have some bad JavaScript.  For example, Opera refuses
to draw the pull-downs with the following error:

Error:
name: TypeError
message: Statement on line 1: Expression evaluated to null or undefined
and is not convertible to Object: document.all.CamerasMenu

This may be related to why they don't work under GNOME.  That said, I
have no idea why they work in other desktop environments.  Have you run
this by the Mozilla or GNOME developers?
