Dlink DWL-2000AP web configuration broken by javascript errors

I have just got hold of a D-Link DWL-2000AP wireless access point.
Got it talking to a laptop with an Orinoco 802.11b PCMCIA card within
a few minutes with it's default settings.

However, I've found it impossible to change any of the access point's
settings via the web configuration, apparently due to a javascript
error on the pages served up by the browser, which looks like this
in the javascript console:

Error: form1 is not defined
In http://192.168.0.50/public.js, Line 6,

I've tried galeon, mozilla & konquereor as supplied with RedHat 8.

Anyone had similar problems ? Should I be looking to upgrade my browser,
the access point's firmware (it's HW: B1, FW: 1.7) or is Windows & IE the
only way (arrgh) ?

For more detail:

Here's the start of a typical page:
<html>
<head>
<title>DWL-2000AP</title>
<meta HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<script language="JavaScript" src="public.js"></script>
<script language="JavaScript">
function check_auth(){
var auth_type = 0;

if (auth_type == 2 && form1.wep_type[1].checked){
alert("The Encryption can not be disable when the Authentication Type is in the Shared Key mode.");
return false;
}else{
return true;
}
}

function send_request(){

if (check_key() && isHex() && check_ssid() && check_auth()){
form1.apply.value = "1";
form1.submit();
}
}
</script>
</head>
....

The page body then contains things like:
<input name="wep_type" type="radio" value="1" onClick="form1.submit()">
and
<select name="wep_key_len" size="1" onChange="form1.submit();">
but I don't know enough about javascript to know whether their code or my browser
is broken.

Thanks for any advice
Tim

It's OK... Opera seems to have no trouble with it (apart from
needing to hit reload to see to the new settings once the AP has
flashed itself).

(Unfortunately I didn't try Opera first... oh no, the first thing I tried
was updating mozilla and galeon using up2date and now they both segv on
startup.. more ARRRGH!)
