Help troubleshoot dmv.ca.gov/pubs/pubs.htm

Hi. I can't figure out why the pulldowns at http://www.dmv.ca.gov/pubs/pubs.htm don't work. (They don't start a download.)

For example, if I pull down the first pull-down and select the first real entry (for the California Driver Handbook PDF), nothing happens; nothing downloads.
I've whitelisted ca.gov, and there don't seem to be any other objects (e.g. flash-type stuff) on the page. The NS logo is just a blue S.
I'm able to download the files from Safari (where I don't have NS installed).

Can someone attempt to reproduce this?

I've gone through the faq and read this before posting stuff (but no, I haven't tried a development build, as I'm betting this is user error. :-)

I am running Firefox 5.0 beta, with NoScript 2.1.0.5.

Oh, and thanks to the folks who volunteer to help folks like me. (And yes, I've done the same for other apps, which is probably why I would even think to make a comment like that! :roll: )

It works for me as soon as I "Allow dmv.ca.gov".

It also works for me, it so happens that I had to make an appointment online today, so I KNOW it worked fine.

Thanks, both of you.I'll do some more thorough testing (clean Profile, latest dev version of NS) and post again.

I can't do that because I've allowed ca.gov, so I'm betting that's not the cause of the problem.

That's not a valid test, because it doesn't have an equivalent pull-down. There is a pull-down at https://www.dmv.ca.gov/foa/clear.do?goT ... aleName=en but it works for me too; it doesn't rely on any action taking place simply due to the selection from the pull-down; instead, there's a submit button on that page.
