Hang While Adding Printer from Web Interface

My OpenSSL on the Solaris box reports...

  $/usr/local/ssl/bin/openssl version
  OpenSSL 0.9.8c 05 Sep 2006

Also, and this should narrow things down...

I browse from an OpenBSD desktop using Firefix 1.5.02.  The browsing is generally good with Firefox, and in the case of my CUPS server, https URLs seem to work with the exception of the one printer add page I described.

Strangely, watching the logs, I see that the POST operation from clicking the 'Continue' button doesn't occur until after I hit the 'Stop loading' button of my browser.  Then, finally, the admin.cgi starts, then cups-driverd starts, and a 'Content-Type: application/ipp' page is written by cups-driverd.  The odd thing is that the POST never happens until I stop the page load.

Now, I went to Windows machine and repeated thes steps using IE - it all works fine.  It also works fine using Safari on a MscOSX box.

So now I'm thinking that my Firefox doesn't work/play well with my CUPS installation.
