ASP.NET MVC form submitted in FF/Chrome, not in IE

Hey guys, I'm going slightly insane here. I've been trying to figure out what is the problem for the past 24 hours, but I simply can't figure out what is wrong. I have an article submission framework. First the user inputs some article text fields, then he uploads 2 pictures, then he crops them. The problem occurs when I try to crop t...

Firefox popup locks up parent until it's closed

I have a page where I open a popup window and the original window is supposed to stay usable. In IE and Chrome, I can switch back and forth between the parent and child, but in Firefox, if I click on the parent window, focus goes to the child (which just flashes tauntingly). I look at Firefox's popup options, and the only one that seeme...

Can a Firefox/Thunderbird Extension modify a printed page?

I'm writing a Thunderbird extension that performs a translation of the current message on demand. The translation is appended to the HTML in the message view pane (so it is not persistent). Can a Thunderbird (or Firefox) extension modify the content sent to a printer? I'd like my users to be able to print the translations alongside the ...

HTML5: Firefox vs Safari... need help with some CSS

This is my first HTML5 site and I never expected for Firefox and Safari to be fighting! It's usually IE that I'm mad at. The header and footer both seem to be working just fine in both browsers. But the content area is shifted all the way to the right in Safari. If I add webkit css (first time having to use that as well), then Safari wo...

Max-height ignored in Firefox, works in Chrome and Safari

I'm making a slideshow of images with the class "Display". I want to limit the height and width of the image to a maximum of 80% of the window's, so that there won't be a need for a scroll bar at any normal size. Here's the CSS I used: .Display { max-width: 80%; max-height: 80%; } It works exactly how I want it to work in Chrome and...

problem with proprietary style names in FireFox when modifying styles through document.styleSheets

I am experimenting with changing some stylesheets from javascript I have come across a strange issue: When I set an attribute on a style rule it silently fails in Firefox if the property is one of their proprietary ones.

iframe in FireFox sometimes pops up a "Save As..." dialog rather than loading the frame

I integrate phpBB on my site using iframe. It mostly works seamlessly and all looks great. Sometimes, for reasons I haven't figured out, the following page will not try to load the iframe in FireFox (will work on IE/Chrome) but instead open the "Save As..." (or open/save) dialog indicating the .php file has been served as text rather th...

Firefox not registering onclick event handler

Below are two snips of code for assigning an event handler for an onclick event. Version One works in IE, FF, Safari and Chrome. Version Two works in IE, Safari and Chrome, but not in FF. In Version One, I register the event handler in the markup. In Version Two, I use a newer, and supposedly more robust, method for registering the event...

Is the Webkit inspector (developer tools) a suitable replacement for Firebug yet?

The Safari & Chrome developer tools (webkit inspector) seem to have become quite advanced. Although I'm very used to Firebug and rely on it for development, I'm really flirting with the idea of trying to just make a complete switch to Chrome (since I browse almost exclusively with it anyway) and just learn to get use to it's web develope...
