Style changer not working in Firefox

I'm not sure whether it's my customisation that has mucked it up, but I can't get the style changer to work with Firefox 2 under Windows.

E.g. http://pbolchover.smugmug.com/gallery/3714365_ydCuS

(Update: it also appears not to work when I view the gallery via
http://www.smugmug.com/gallery/3714365_ydCuS
so I don't think that it's a problem with my customisation.

Nor does it work with a friend's non-customised account:

    I've had extensive problems with FF2 and the style changer in the last week or so. Works fine in IE or Safari, not in FF2 at all. It's not just my gallery. It won't even work in the Smugmug popular photos view or any other people's galleries I try. Something is busted.

    You must of visited a site with the old slideshow using a keyword or popular
    source. The only way to fix is delete your Smugmug cookies.

    I've seen the same thing, the style picker doesn't work and you're sturck in
    another style then Smugmug.

    Thanks. That fixed it.

    That's a pretty evil problem that's going to strike many, many regular users and they will have no idea why part Smugmug is busted.

    It worked with the olde slideshow until the new security was released...

    (It's just a pity that there's still missing functionality in the new slideshow)

    Uhhh, but it isn't retired right? It's still in many user's pages. You may not recommend it anymore, but it's still out there being used.

    And thus, it's easy for a random viewer to get their Smugmug cookies hosed just by browsing a Smugmug gallery belonging to someone else. This is an unfortunate situation. I wish you guys could do something better to either force it to really get taken out of people's pages or to make it not cause the problem it is causing.

    It is fixed internally and in testing.
