html5 video and firefox

So, I created a nice little html5 video player with a playlist and some jQuery transitions between the playlist view and the video view. It works great in Chrome/Safari. However, firefox is a different story. All the jQuery business works just fine; however, the videos do not display. Rather, I am left with a grey-x. I've tried switching...

The problem is: I want to use one object id, such as id="MyObject", which will be defined in both object tags (for the ActiveX or NPAPI) so that my Javascript calls the object MyObject dir...

Image scaling by CSS: is there a webkit alternative for -moz-crisp-edges?

I have an image that is 100x100 in pixels. I want to show it twice the size, so 200x200 and I want to do it by CSS and (explicitly) not by the server. Since a few years, images get anti-aliased by all browsers instead of doing a by-pixel scale. Mozilla allows to specify the algorithm: image-rendering: -moz-crisp-edges; So does IE: -ms-...

Why doesn't ASP.NET (3.5) always load an external javascript?

I have an external JavaScript in an asp.net 3.5 project. While writing different functions, sometimes the JavaScript is loaded into FF and sometimes it is not (based on FireBug) and the JavaScript does not run. Even if there is an error in the JS it should still load or be visible to the browser, right? What is the logic behind when i...

Hi I have created a newly designed site that went live just last week. I have had reports back from a friend of a friend that it crashes in Firefox. They haven't passed on what version they are using, but hinted that it was on the mac. I haven't been able to recreate this crash at all, and wondered if anybody out there either experienc...

Editor for firebug or 'how to embed a custom editor' in a firefox tab?

Firebug is great for javascript development, but doesn't allow to edit the code (the 'edit html' in the firebug is not usable, doesn't save the file and even if it did, it is just an plain text editor without any coloring). I usually have my editor opened next to Firefox, but the constant switching feels aarrgh! To have the editor insid...

Problem mixing overflow-x, FireFox, and Javascript.

First of all, this problem only happens in Firefox. Check this example page to understand the problem: -removed- Select any page besides home. The window will scroll to page. You can then scroll down using the mouse wheel. This works fine. BUT if you grab the scroll bar on the right with your mouse it will jump back to the "home page" ...

This isn't really a question, just something I struggled with on my own and thought others might appreciate a solution. If you try to apply a border and rounded border radius to a div containing an image in FireFox, you get rounded div borders with a square image sticking out at the corners--rather unsightly. Solution? Apply a desire...

Opening a bookmarklet in a sidebar--having it close (through javascript?) after the bookmarklet runs.

Can I have a bookmarklet run (javascript) and close the window (in this case actually sidebar) at the end of the script? I've been reading around and haven't found out if it isn't possible, but it looks bleak. (>_<) If not through a sidebar, could I do it with a tab? ...
