Firefox failure to render a page

A large store chain has a website that all of their suppliers have to log into
every time they send in an invoice. I know -- seems weird to me too but I
guess when you're big you get to set the rules.
Anyway, this website is a secure (https:) site that, when you log into it using
IE on Windows, immediately asks you for your username and password.
But I will be damned if I can get it to work at all under Linux.
Instead of the username/password prompt that comes up under IE, I get this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="882T.xsl"?>
<Interchange Region="Atlantic">
<Msg_882_GROUP_1>
<G47>
<G47_01_373></G47_01_373>
<G47_01_613></G47_01_613>
</G47>
... this series of numbers continues on for several screen lengths, then ends
with
</Msg_882_GROUP_1> </Interchange>
And that's it. Game over.
I have tried this with Firefox and Opera, and even got desperate and installed
IE under Wine using the script here: http://sidenet.ddo.jp/winetips/config.html
Every time I get the same thing.
Any idea what's going on here, and how I can get Firefox or something to render
this page? It is obviously doing something that IE recognizes but Firefox
doesn't understand.
