Firefox/Flash won't Autoplay on AJAX load unless page is visible

I have a music site that uses a flash program to play music.

Firefox extension, toolbar placement

Hi, I'm brand new to Firefox extensions and am trying to update an old extension (that worked with Firefox 2.0) to have it work with 3.0. Everything seems to work, except the toolbar appears below the statusbar (which it does not in 2.0).

Alternative to Fiddler ?

Hi I use Fidder to test bug fixes directly on non development environments.

CSS for Disabled Textbox (Prevent "graying out" in Firefox/Chrome)

Is it possible to set CSS for disabled textboxes? I don't want the automatic gray-out in Firefox/Chrome.
