Starting Selenium with custom Firefox profile from Eclipse

Hi, I'm running Selenium tests from within Eclipse, but I can't load a custom Firefox profile. Most sources suggest I need to launch the Selenium Server like this: java -jar selenium-server.jar -firefoxProfileTemplate </path/to/template/> But when launching my test from within Eclipse it doesn't use that - the tests will run if the ...

Starting and stopping firefox from c#

When I start /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin on MacOSX using Process.Start() using Mono, the id of the process that gets returned does not match the process that firefox ends up running under. It looks like firefox quickly decides to start another process, and kill the current one. This makes it difficult to st...

[Firefox Development] Creating an addon to override cookies

I'm working on writing a plugin to change the value of a cookie to prevent log out. I was planning to have it so that on every page load the value of that cookies is changed to my value. Is this the best way to go at it? Is it safe? I'm mostly needing to know how other developers would go at it and what are the pit falls of my current id...

Firefox search plugin: varying result destination URL based on results returned?

I want to create a firefox search plugin with an autocomplete function. However I have a twist to the standard, "return a result and append to the URL" method. Depending on the result returned in the autocomplete how do I use a different "template URL" (or destination URL) when the user submits the search? Can you return a result and ...

Firefox & CSS3: using overflow: hidden and box-shadow

I'm not sure whether this bug applies to Firefox only or also to WebKit-based browsers, but it's really, really annoying. I've got a template/framework for my CMS interface, using box-shadow on a few elements with a width of 100%. Since this causes shadow on the right side of the element, a scroll bar appears. To hide the ugly scrollba...

jquery show effect shows background color while animated in Firefox 3.6

The problem: I have a site that has a large image for the body background-image. This image is cached and remains constant after the first load. i.e. clicks to different pages do not reload the background. That part works fine. For really large monitors I have the body background-color set to #CCCCCC. The problem is that i have some ...

Changing window.location.href in Firefox in response to an onunload event

Hi, I have a strange JavaScript problem using window.location.href, which apparently only affects Firefox (I'm using 3.6). Normally window.location.href would not be read-only, and this works perfectly in FF: window.location.href = "http://google.com/"; However, when I call a function in response to an onunload event (), this doesn'...

Link: http://dev.supply.net.nz/copper/index.php/site/talent/ The CMS is Expression engine, but that shouldn't matter in this case. Basically what you'll see happen...

Chrome not sending POST requests on localhost, Firefox works fine

I have copied the simple Django forms example exactly, running on localhost. The basic contact form example should submit a POST request when you click the Submit button. I'm running Chrome on Mac Snow Leopard, and whenever I submit the form, the page simply reloads with an empty form: I can see from the runserver output that it's not s...

Shift + Click of Linkbutton in Firefox opens new window instead of firing OnClick

I used C# to build a gallery of photos. Users can hold down shift and click to select multiple photos at once. I used the System.Windows.Forms.Control.ModifierKeys property to determine whether shift is being pressed in the OnClick event of a link button, but find that it only works in IE. In Firefox, Shift + Click opens a new window and...

FireFox 3.6 for Mac not reading cookie / redirecting properly

Hello, I have a nifty little cookie-based home page redirection scheme going for my website. Basically, the first time a user browses to the website, they are presented with two choices (Products vs. Machining Services). When the user clicks one of the two buttons, a JavaScript function stores a cookie with the appropriate choice ("pr...

Cannot change borderColor of TD

Using JS to set the background color of a TD is fine. But, setting the border color is problematic in FF 3.0.18 although IE 6 doesn't experience this. FF is problematic in that it requires the TD element to have an attribute style initialized to border-style: solid. Without that, setting border color of a TD won't work. Is this known bug...
