I have a Silverlight control that tries to have the same background as the underlaying div, but I'm facing color difference problems in IE7/8: That doesn't seems to be a problem for Firefox. Does anyone has a tip how to solve this problem? I try to avoid using the windowless mode in Silverlight and alpha transparency as 1st) it's s...
In short, I'm trying to make a weather scroller that will display the weather horizontally for about 50 cities. The issue I'm having is that both IE and FF are making 2-3 lines worth of cities while Chrome keeps it in a nice horizontal line. So Chrome has 1 line scrolling with the weather and IE+FF have 2-3. I've pasted my current code ...
A table that extends onto multiple printed pages will have its thead and tfoot sections reprinted in firefox. This is usually great, however, is there a way to turn off this behavior with CSS?

I've never really had the need to use any drag functions until now, so let me fill you in on what I've discovered so far: Drag events are events that take place when the user is dragging an object. This is "proper" OS dragging, eg: hiliting some text and dragging it, or even dragging in something from outside of the browser. While dr...

I have come across a problem where, my asp.net code is being rendered differently on Firefox and IE. When I say differently, I mean, A linkButton in IE renders as anchor tags. On Firefox however, it renders as a span code example <ItemTemplate> <div id="<%#Eval("Id","{0}") %>"> <asp:LinkButton ID="ProductName" runat="server" ...

Like many programs flash their window on the taskbar / dock to alert the user to switch to the program, Is it possible to flash the Browser window using Javascript?

I've recently switched from storing session data in a cookie to storing it in the database. Now every POST request causes an ActionController::InvalidAuthenticityToken error. It only happens in Firefox, and only on my home machine (I tried it out at work today in the same version of FF and everything was fine). This leads me to believ...

Is it possible to switch firefox to use a different DNS than what is in the windows.host file? For example, I have a development site on a different server but I'm trying to copy content over from the live site so it'd be handy to have the live site in IE and the dev site in FF. I tried FoxyProxy but I can't seem to get it to work. Th...
Is the a way to programmatically open a URL in a new tab in firefox without firefox gaining focus? What I found out so far: firefox -new-window <URL> lets ff stay in the background, but opens a new window instead of a tab. firefox -new-tab <URL> opens <URL> in a new tab but gives focus to ff. EDIT: What I'm trying to accomplish is mak...
Hello all, I have a site that has a simple HTML button in a form. All browsers show this button correctly. However, in Firefox 2 and Seamonkey it appears just as a solid grey square that cannot be clicked on and that has no text. <input id="getaudiobutton" type="button" value="Get Audio" onclick="convert()" /> For those of you that h...
Is there a list of 'good' clean CSS hacks, which are certain to be future-proof? For example, zoom:1 is safe, as long as it's only served to IE, and you remember it's there. The very common hack of using child selectors is not safe because IE7 supports them. Using height:1% just feels dirty (but that might just be me). I know of ie7-...
I love Firefox and Firebug, but Firefox seem to have some problem with the memory. Both mine and 2 co-workers at the office have the same problem - Firefox makes or PC/Vista or MacBook Pro sweat like a polarbear in Afrika. Anyone else have this problem? And is there some solution for those of us who sell or kidneys before working witho...
