When I disable input elements the text is taking the font color: "#000000" in Firefox. This is not happening in IE. Please check the below page in IE and Firefox. Let me know how to give it a gray look as in IE. test ...
I'm not sure if this a settings problem or an HTML problem, but on a page layout I'm working on, Firefox does not render the stylesheet immediately. Meaning for maybe half a second I can see the unstyled page, then the stylesheet kicks in and it renders as I expect. All my stylesheets are in external css files loaded in the head tag. I'...
I've noticed slight spacing differences in HTML rendering between these versions in Windows XP. Is the box-model interpreted in a slight different manner? ...
Hi folks, if I open a connection to the server from firefox browser, and then I open a new tab within the same instance of browser to make a connection to the server, is it considered one session to server or considered as two diff sessions? Thanks ...
How can I test my website in multiple versions of firefox? I have v2 installed. Now no matter where or how many times I install FF3, it always executes ff2.. I checked the interweb and it seems there used to be a MultiFireFox tool that could run several versions. It was for apple and I'm on windows. Furthermore all the links to it are d...
I'm wanting to keep the font size of a navigation menu the same size for all browsers. I set the font-size of the navigation menu text to a specific pixel size. In IE this works, but not in FF. The problem is, if a person changes their browser's font size, then it completely ruins the menu layout in FF. Is there a way to adjust thi...
I have a web application that I'm working on for work and its not very Firefox friendly (design was made 2 years before I started with the company). There are some CSS issues that I am having problems with and I can't use a CSS Reset because the page design is pretty much set in stone and it would cause more work then I need right now. ...
Hi! We've recently implemented Amazon S3 in our site which led us to change the way we handled images. We used to call a controller /fotos.php that would read the file from disk, record some statistics, set headers and return the contents of the file as image/jpeg. All went OK until S3. Fotos.php now does a 302 redirect to the resource...
I've been learning the new ASP.NET MVC framwork lately and I've developed a test site for a friend who runs a "light café" in Sweden. The plan is to release it within a week or so after performing some final adjustments and fixing some security issues. Yesterday I published the site to a webhost running IIS 6, so the first thing I had ...
Hi, I'm trying to load an image from the Firefox cache as the title suggests. I'm running Ubuntu, so the location of my cache is /home/me/.mozilla/firefox/xxxxxx.default/Cache However, in the Cache (and this is on Mac, too) the filenames are just ridiculous combinations of letters and numbers. Is there a way to pinpoint a certain file? ...
Hi When I visually scale an image, firefox 3 blurs it. Firefox 2 and other browsers don't, which is the behavior I expect. This is especially lame for creating a webbased game using png or gif sprites. For example, when showing a 100x100 image in firefox 3 like this: <img src="sprite.gif" width="200" /> or <img src="sprite.gif" sty...
Hi there. When I try to start Firefox using Process.Start and ProcessStartInfo (.NET) everything seems to work fine. But when I specify a username and password of another account (a member of Users), nothing seems to happen. The same code works fine with Calc.exe or IE. This is weird. Any ideas? Here is the code: System.Diagnostics.Pr...
I'd like to learn how FireFox works behind the scenes. I'd like to understand the source code and the different components but the code-base is rather large and I'm not sure where to start. I'm wondering if there is some sort of walk though written up by anybody either from the firefox team or from outside the community. I've looked ...
While adding some very basic script tags I found a wierd "bug" in firefox (as well as IE) I added these two lines of code to my .htm page <script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery.js" /> <script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery.corner.js" /> To me as well as opera and chrome they look like ordinary script tags however to fire...
I understand (I think) that XmlHttpRequest objects adhere to the "same-domain" policy. However, I want to create a simple (POC) local html file that downloads XML from a web server and does something with it (let's start with a simple "alert()"). Is it possible at all? Do I need a special Firefox config option? The server from which I'...
I want to scrape the user pages of SO to give the owners of my toolbar the updated information on their questions/answers/etc... This means I need to do this in the background, parse the pages, extract the content, compare it with the last run and then present the results either on the toolbar or the status bar, or alternatively, on a p...
I'm working on a Firefox extension. I'd like to make it auto-install in the far right position on the nav bar when a user installs it. As it stands, a user has to go to View > Toolbars > Customize... and drag the extension to the nav bar once it's installed. I'd like to eliminate this step. The extension is here: http://madan.org/ticker...
I understand that Firefox addins can be created in Javascript and Chrome. How do they run advanced graphics applications such as CoolIris ? ...
I can't figure out if this is a bug in Firefox or an anomaly with the website as it only seems to occur through a specific sequence. TLDR steps below If you visit the main page (link below) and then click on the quotes link it will send you to a page called quoteconfig.aspx which checks for javascript and then redirects you if it's ena...
I'm trying to write javascript to find page elements relative to a given element by using parentNode, firstChild, nextSibling, childNodes[], and so on. Firefox messes this up by inserting text nodes between each html element. I've read that I can defeat this by removing all whitespace between elements but I've tried that and it doesn't d...
