I just downloaded Firefox 3.6 today and I noticed in the list of new features they have an Orientation API that can detect the direction that your laptop/computer is tilted. This is clearly a hardware feature of some sort; So if you don't have the hardware to do so is there any way of simulating it so that you can test it out on your pr...
I hear that Firefox 3.6 adds support for the HTML local file API (Announcement here). Does this mean that I can access local files from javascript? Can anyone point me to examples for reading / writing local files? I would love to be able to read / write simple text files. Many thanks ...
I've recently been told by a colleague that Firefox 3.6 supports native drag and drop file uploads + image resizing from the operating system without any extensions or plugins required. Can anyone post a code snippet or provide a link which demonstrates this new functionality (as I couldn't find much on a Google search)? ...
So, in upgrading to Firefox 3.6, the CSS broke on input boxes. The padding has increased -- it might also be the font-size is somehow behaving different. Wondering if anyone else has seen this problem yet. Can't quite figure it out. HTML CODE: <form> <fieldset> <label for="inputField">Label</label> <input type="t...
Don't really want to blame mozilla on this one, i'm sure it could be me doing something silly but the page at: www. neverMindFixed .com the presentation will work fine on other browsers, just not the latest firefox. anyone clued up on this? Thanks! Si ...
I've noticed this issue in previous versions of Firefox whereby after scrolling sIFR links become inactive and need to be clicked in order to become links again. The fix for this was fairly straightforward and just required you to add 'fixFocus: true' in the sIFR config. Unfortunately when I upgraded to Firefox 3.6 this fix no longer wo...

Hi, I know this question may sound vague, but I have been debugging (PHP and js) our application for a day now and have not found any issues in the data generation. Our application uses xajax to generate lists based on data that we have in our DB. we have a list in particular that works on every other browser: IE 7&8, Firefox 3.0.13(Lin...
I am beta testing an application that includes a Firefox extension as one component. It was originally deployed when FF3.5.5 was the latest version, and survived 3.5.6 and 3.5.7. However on FF3.6 I'm getting the following in my error console: Warning: reference to undefined property Components.interfaces.nsIProcess2 Source file: chrome:...
Recently I updated my firefox to 3.6 and the silver light app on my web app has weird behavior. No button click happens in the silverlight app, it just gives it the focus and if we 'TAB' around, we can get the click working. But this is not like the previous behavior in FF 3.5.7. Very inconvenient for the unsuspecting users. This woul...
Hi, I have tried out the NPRuntime sample provided with the Gecko SDK 1.9.1 with the help of this link. It works perfectly fine with Firefox 3.6. Following the above steps I created a new scripting plugin (npmyplugin.dll). I am currently placing npmyplugin.dll in a folder other than Firefox/plugins. I am registering the associated mim...
This only seems to be a problem now with firefox 3.6 When you click anywhere on the page which is one big embedded silverlight object the little broken outline appears, the same as when you say click on a link. This is causing the page to go one pixel over horizontally and vertically which is causing scroll bars to appear. Any idea? ...
I'm developing an app and don't have to ever worry about IE and was looking into some of the features present in A+ grade browsers that aren't in IE. One of these features I wanted to play around with is javascript's let keyword I can't seem to get any of their 'let' examples to work in Firefox 3.6 (UA string: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; ...

I've noticed that in recent versions of Firefox, some images are displayed even when I disable images (e.g., Google News). Apparently this is due to images being embedded in the code using the "data:image" specification. Does anyone know of a way to disable these images from being displayed? The reason I'm posting this here rather than ...
I'm trying to use the mozrepl Firefox extension to give me a Javascript REPL from within emacs. I think I've got it set up correctly. I can interact with the REPL from emacs and can explore the document pretty much as described in the tutorial pages. The problem comes when I try to do something really simple, like get a context to a can...

I am using jQuery's ajax method to acquire a static JSON file. The data is loaded from the local file system, hence there is no server, so I can't change the mime type. This works fin in Safari, but Firefox (3.6.3) reports the file to be "not well-formed". I am aware of, and have reviewed, a similar post here on Stack Overflow: http:/...
