Thanks for the link.

Specific or not, I'm sure such an article would interest any web site
owner it is written about.
It was just very difficult for me to fish the link from the mailing
list archives back when it was mentioned the first time around through
a mobile phone.

Forwarded.

Click on the "כרטיסים ותעריפים" which opens a new page and you have the menu 
options on the side. At least that's what it does in Iceweasel - Lenny

Re: contacts at Israel Rail

As much as I have tested the israel railways site it seems to work with
firefox.
During my position as W3C office manager in Israel, I mat with the guy
responsible for the site and he was willing to help if there are any
problems.
I can contact him again if needed.

Unfortunatly due to reorganization of ISOC-IL they decided to fire me from
the job and currently it seems that although there is a formal contact
person for W3C office, there is no work done.
However, when doing any work connected to website standards, please CC
off...@w3c.org.il.
So they will see that something is done although they are not doing
anything.

As a user, I don't really care if the JS code is "not too brilliant" as long 
as the site is usable from the major browsers. I think that we (as Linux 
enthusiasts) should be focusing on fighting the IE-dependency of Israeli web 
sites.

TheDailyWTF.com had an article about how bad the code of the Israil
website is. I posted it here a week or two ago.

Hi Amos,

The most basic issue I see with FF, the menu is hard to click as it tends to
disappear before you can reach the submenus.

Go to כרטיסים ותעריפים

and then try to move the mouse to any sub items, the menu goes away
