Firefox with broken QFlags...
FF1.5 works great except it would not load QT (QuickTime) banners properly. For example, at CNN.com, the head banner and several major windows driven by QT would not load except displaying a broken QFlag. Yet in TOOLS/OPTIONS/DOWNLOADS/EDIT ACTIONS the browser shows QT plug ins galore. Anyone know if there is initiation or java (.ini or .js) file that needs to be modified & if so, can anyone help out on how, what, & where? Thank you.

I'll take a guess though. One of the things QT does is to grab the file association for swf files, which, properly, should be handled through the Flash plugin. Control Panel>>Quick Time. Make sure QT is not grabbing the swf association.

It worked, 98%. Most of what did not load on CNN loaded after I disassociated swf. Good call. However, that one panel in middle right hand column under MORE NEWS titled WATCH VIDEO is still incorrectly associated. Any suggestion on what extension should I disable? I have not tried disabling all yet but that is an experiment. Thank you. Leonidas Jones wrote: > USA wrote: > >> FF1.5 works great except it would not load QT (QuickTime) banners >> properly.

I was referring to the "file" extensions in the Download Actions dialog box as in dot swf. Sorry I should have been clear. I fixed it. I just uninstalled QT7. Everything works now & that CNN page loads fully as it does like my other browsers. The Download Actions box is now only half a page as compared with 3 pages before. I am considering adding back QT but an earlier version instead. Not sure yet, just going to cruise in FF for a while. Thank you very much.

Firefox within Firefox
For a short time now (likely since upgrading to FF 1.5.02) I've noticed that when running a Firefox session, ZA will popup a notice that Firefox -- verified the same exe as the running one -- is "trying to access the internet." This is confusing because it's already accessing the internet, thanks much. However, the destination IP is always along the lines of 206.141.192.60:DNS, which translates to dns1.chcgil.sbcglobal.net, part of my ISP. So I've been saying yes.

Firefox add-on "slogger" no longer supported with Firefox 3.x
Hello everyone, I did some research on my own to find a replacement or a way to make it work with Firefox 3.x since I found it so convenient. Since this was not really successful I turn to the group if anyone has advice :-) slogger is an add-on that (as I configured it) keeps a monthly log of URLs that I loaded (with timestamps) and a text-only-version of the pages (named with the timestamp) so that I can do full-text-search. Whenever I didn't remember where I had been seeing some information I searched through these logs and I did find what I was looking for quite often (I wrote a BAT for it since I use it quite often). And I was able to quickly see where I've been when including the availability of removing noise via grep... Of course now that I have FF 3.0 and it doesn't work anymore I can simply start googling for what I'm searching but drilling down what I have already done before (and don't remember exactly when) is frustrating. These are the things I found so far: How-to to make slogger work with FF 3.0 (but only when triggered manually which is useless): http://firefoxjourney.blogspot.com/2008/06/enable-slogger-0620061221-with-firefox3.html Another add-ons I will try some time: WebMynd: https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/6416 Breadcrumbs: https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/2954 -- Armin ...

Upgrade to Firefox (Firefox 3)
Name: Bill Dunlop Email: billdunlopatpostmasterdotcodotuk Product: Firefox Summary: Upgrade to Firefox (Firefox 3) Comments: Taking up your offer to 'upgrade' to Firefox 3 is possibly one of my poorer decisions- my principal issue is with the browser which not only added two (or was it three?) bookmarks not loaded into my browser bar, but deleted several. I use the browser for online news and professional purposes, with the FT, Independent, Guardian, Herald, Scotsman and Aljezeera, in my browser along with University of Edinburgh home page, postmaster.co.uk (email provider of choice, especially after Yahoo's betrayal of Chinese dissidents), abebooks.co.uk and a couple of others. All of these I use regulalry, and it's a real pain to discover Firefox 3 can't hold all of these at one time. This is not an upgrade, it's a down-grade presumably based on a Joe Public lacking interest beyond a sheltered life of mundane trivia.

Firefox 3.0 has broken the little AppleScript support remaining in Firefox
Name: James Yost Email: mrpersonatearthlinkdotnet Product: Firefox Summary: Firefox 3.0 has broken the little AppleScript support remaining in Firefox Comments: In previous versions of Firefox there was slight AppleScript support. Version 3 has broken what remained (i.e. properties of window n).

Firefox within Firefox
For a short time now (likely since upgrading to FF 1.5.02) I've noticed that when running a Firefox session, ZA will popup a notice that Firefox -- verified the same exe as the running one -- is "trying to access the internet." This is confusing because it's already accessing the internet, thanks much. However, the destination IP is always along the lines of 206.141.192.60:DNS, which translates to dns1.chcgil.sbcglobal.net, part of my ISP. So I've been saying yes. But I'm wondering why of a sudden this access is taking place, or being questioned, or what...

Firefox witrh broken QFlags?
My FF1.5 works great except it would not load QT (QuickTime) banners properly. For example, when I am at CNN.com, the head banner and several major windows driven by QT would not load except displaying a broken QFlag. Yet in TOOLS/OPTIONS/DOWNLOADS/EDIT ACTIONS I show QT plug ins galore. Anyone know if there is initiation or java (.ini or .js) file that needs to be modified & if so, can anyone help out on how, what, & where? Thank you.

Firefox add-on "slogger" no longer supported with Firefox 3.x
Hello everyone, I did some research on my own to find a replacement or a way to make it work with Firefox 3.x since I found it so convenient. Since this was not really successful I turn to the group if anyone has advice :-) slogger is an add-on that (as I configured it) keeps a monthly log of URLs that I loaded (with timestamps) and a text-only-version of the pages (named with the timestamp) so that I can do full-text-search. Whenever I didn't remember where I had been seeing some information I searched through these logs and I did find what I was looking for quite often (I wrote a BAT for it since I use it quite often). And I was able to quickly see where I've been when including the availability of removing noise via grep... Of course now that I have FF 3.0 and it doesn't work anymore I can simply start googling for what I'm searching but drilling down what I have already done before (and don't remember exactly when) is frustrating. These are the things I found so far: How-to to make slogger work with FF 3.0 (but only when triggered manually which is useless): http://firefoxjourney.blogspot.com/2008/06/enable-slogger-0620061221-with-firefox3.html Another add-ons I will try some time: WebMynd: https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/6416 Breadcrumbs: https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/2954 -- Armin ...

Cut/copy/mousewheel broken. Workaround:rename firefox.exe. Suggests unknown spyware targetting firefox.
Automatically updated to firefox 1.5.0.2 on my machine at home. System is windows XP SP2. Problems started around then though not sure if this was the trigger. My problem was cut/copy not working at all, scroll wheel on mouse not working at all. Tried reboots, uninstalling, removing profiles and reinstalling version 1.5.0.1, 1.5.0.2, 1.8, 1.0.5, and 1.0. Tried the new.net removals. Tried changing user.js. None of that worked. The above steps did work. Found a fix that seems to work reliably. At least one other person who had this problem also found this worked. 1) Close all inst...

Upgrade to Firefox (Firefox 3)
Name: Bill Dunlop Email: billdunlopatpostmasterdotcodotuk Product: Firefox Summary: Upgrade to Firefox (Firefox 3) Comments: Taking up your offer to 'upgrade' to Firefox 3 is possibly one of my poorer decisions- my principal issue is with the browser which not only added two (or was it three?) bookmarks not loaded into my browser bar, but deleted several. I use the browser for online news and professional purposes, with the FT, Independent, Guardian, Herald, Scotsman and Aljezeera, in my browser along with University of Edinburgh home page, postmaster.co.uk (email provider of choice, especially after Yahoo's betrayal of Chinese dissidents), abebooks.co.uk and a couple of others. All of these I use regulalry, and it's a real pain to discover Firefox 3 can't hold all of these at one time. This is not an upgrade, it's a down-grade presumably based on a Joe Public lacking interest beyond a sheltered life of mundane trivia. I suspect it may be time to find a web provider which can provide a real service rather than limit choice and diversity Browser Details: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.9.0.1) Gecko/2008070208 Firefox/3.0.1 From URL: http://hendrix.mozilla.org/ ...
