This is a regression from Firefox 2.

Summary: Javascript mistake → Menu names on festo.com are only visible when hovered
DOM Inspector shows that the page uses "color:transparent" for the menus. That will, of course, make the text invisible in any browser that supports the "transparent" color name. http://www.festo.com/INetDomino/repository/menu.css

The same thing happens in Safari. I wonder what the site author was thinking. This is the second site I've seen that used color:transparent and broke as a result, but the other one is already fixed.

Thiemo, do you work at Festo? I noticed you have a Festo e-mail address; if you work there, please pass this along to the Web site team. Comment 3 explains how to fix the problem.
