for sure. I do not ever use Google that I know of. The biggest spy on

Firefox 3.0 has broken the little AppleScript support remaining in FirefoxName: James Yost

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). The
Macintosh community would welcome more AppleScript support - At least a
"do javascript" command from AppleScript would help a great deal.

I don't know if this will go anywhere, but as both a die-hard Firefox

may or may not know, "firefox" is the literal translation of the Chinese

Firefox within FirefoxFor 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

thanks much.
However, the destination IP is always along the lines of

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.xHello 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):

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
