Not sure this will help, but:

This appears to be a bug in the current versions of Firefox; hopefully the next branch (starting with 1.5) should fix it, but until then here's a simple “fix”.  You need to disable autocompletion on that field.  You do it like this:

<input type="text" autocomplete="off" ... />

You can also disable autocompletion on the whole form if you wish:

<form action="..." method="post" autocomplete="off">

Please let me know if using this attribute solved the problem.

Using Firefox 1.0.7 with autocomplete="off" in my forms I am still getting:

Error: uncaught exception: Permission denied to get property HTMLDivElement.parentNode

This occurs whenever I mouseover the input element in the menu.

Is there any other work arounds or ideas?

I did more testing after I posted the autocomplete="off" solution, and unfortunately, the problem isn't related. Anyhow, autocomplete="off" solves other problems (but not related to our menu).

For now there is no work around, I am sorry about this... I hope next Firefox versions will solve this (because as I see things, it's a browser bug).

I was able to fix this based on http://jquery.com/dev/bugs/bug/222/

Context: I had been reworking v. 1.0 to work in flat mode. There were several bugs, including one in calendar-setup. The one relavent to this is found in the Calendar.isRelated code. I changed the code to:

while (related) {
if (related == el) {
return true;
}
try { related = related.parentNode; }
catch(e) { related = null }
}

So that when FireFox throws a Permission Denies, it exits gracefully. I have not tested this on any of the IE or previous versions of FireFox.
