I can't remember exactly what the issue was, but I think it had to do
with the way firefox loaded
javascript. They changed it in a very fundamental way. I think if you
check the most recent issues
(probably a few months back now) you will see the issue and the
explanation of what changed.

There may be a way to configure the way the Woodstock javascript is
loaded as a workaround
but I'm not sure since I can't remember what the fundamental issue was.

There is a configuration parameter called "bodyonload" or something like
that. You may
be able to set this value to workaround the FF3 problem, but I'm not
certain.
