chatterbox old timer Posts: 377 09-17-04 2:42 AM	Tags : None For all you Firefox users - version 1.0 Pre-Release has been ... released Be wary if you use a lot of extensions, for most haven't been updated to be compatible yet. Web Developer and Tabbrowser extensions are though, so i'm okay It seems quite zippy and generally good. And it adds a very funky "Live bookmark" feature, which is really just an RSS reader built in to your bookmarks sidebar. www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/

Giddy with power part of the furniture Posts: 1668 09-17-04 5:47 AM Chris of all trades	lol I think the site said there shouldnt be problems installing over the top of 0.9 if you disable them then install... But like xeyr said they might no work afterwards, but is it really a shame that that doesnt work? Crazy lady lol

Giddy with power part of the furniture Posts: 2756 09-17-04 5:50 AM profile potentate	what I did wonder is why can't I use ezcodes with firefox - I mean I can use them, but can't highlight text and then apply? Its a PITA to go back and edit after the fact. Do I hacve something not set right? Also, I get annoyed that I can't scroll in the posting box. I have to click outside it and then scroll.

Giddy with power part of the furniture Posts: 1668 09-17-04 6:23 AM Chris of all trades	Yes it is a big pita I only browse CT&T in IE now because it's so bloody annoying that posting tools dont work properly in FF or Moz (I really could rant on! You should talk to Joey I'm sure he is just as annoyed) I know @ asked for someone to write a version that was crossbrowser and Phalen came up with one, I dunno if @ passed it on, even if she did it's not as though they are gonna install it... So it's not your FF And the scrolling thing is another FF thing, if you scroll to the end of the box, it doesnt then scroll the page What find bar

Giddy with power part of the furniture Posts: 2756 09-17-04 6:29 AM profile potentate	when you click "find" a toolbar opens on the bottom of your page (quite out of the way , nice not blocking the text you're searching) and you can type in a word and as you're typing it tells you if that word is anywhere, AND, you can set it to hightlight all instances of the word. Very cool.

Giddy with power part of the furniture Posts: 2756 09-17-04 6:44 AM profile potentate	yellow like a standard 'pen' hightlighter...very intuitive IMO. And what would happen if you had a black page? wouldn't show up that well. At least 99% of the population would never design a web page based on that yellow colour..

chatterbox old timer Posts: 377 09-17-04 7:22 AM	the ezcode highlight thing uses code that only works in IE, other browsers any ezcode stuff is always whacked at the end. One thing with FF - always uninstall the previous version before installing the next one. All your bookmarks and things get kept, but it avoids potential problems. But yeah, all the incompatible extensions I had just came up as "disabled". It handled them quite nicely.

I had one that randomly generated Lorem Ispum, one that automatically switched anonymous proxy servers, one that sycnhronised my bookmarks via FTP to an xml file so I keep work and home the same ...
