Firefox and Javascript edit

When I try to open up some forums such as the one on the Kansas City Star for the Chiefs, I get a Javascript Application pop up edit that says Picking Up Style Sheet. Is there any way to get this pop up from appearing. I already tried installing Java 2 Runtime Environment Standard 1.4.2_05.

Is there a setting somewhere that I need to change or is this just a thing with Firefox.

Looks like poor programming to me, happens to me too...
When I view the source of the page, they are using a full URL to link to their style sheet (CSS).

{{link rel='stylesheet' type='text/css' href='http://www.kansascity.com/css/palette/kansascity/en/global.css'/}}

I have been to many MANY pages that use style sheets, including mine, and I have never seen this before using Firefox. Style sheets should be referenced through the folder structure of the site, not a URL (i.e. h t t p : //.......).

Not sure if there is a setting to ignore or correct this, but it should really be the developer who created the page that fixes it.
