was wondering if there's a way to remove the "Mozilla Firebird" text underneath Internet?

November 1st, 2003

For those of you that seem to like the Tab Browsing in Firebird try this extension
Tabbrowser Extensions
It's extremely useful, It does many things including opening the tabs you had open when you closed Firebird (session recovery) and much more.
For other extensions (or if you don't trust the above link) go to Mozilla Firebird: Extensions

Oh, and if you want to see the table rendering bug in Firebird/Mozilla fixed please vote for the bug at
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215857
otherwise it may never be fixed...

Thanks for the tips, and welcome to NTFS.org

One thing you could do DFX is to put a shortcut there instead.
go to "takbar and Start menu Properties" (right click on the start button and go to properties) click Customize
uncheck both items in "Show on Start Menu" then ok twice...
then just create a shortcut in a folder somewhere to Firebird (right drag the Firebird executable and go to "create shortcut here") rename and modify the shorcut to how you want it then drag it to the start menu... repeat for whatever else you want there...
you have to keep the original short cuts though, I just use a folder in "c:\Documents and settings\user\".

Sorry about the simple instructions, I am used to assuming people are dumb, It's my job

Orbitz expanded theme,

we made the entire thing w3c compliant, and the bug went away, if its still showing for you, then i dont know. For the majority of the users its gone now.

November 1st, 2003

Still isn't rendering properly for me..

..
It's not your fault it's a Mozilla/Firebird bug, see http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215857
It comes good with a refresh...

Here is what it looks like for me on first load..

November 1st, 2003

and for orbitz NOT expanded..

**NetRyder** · November 1st, 2003

Right. The frontpage problem still exists for all four themes. Even W3C-compliant pages will render incorrectly until the Firebird bug is fixed.

**X-Istence** · November 1st, 2003

Weird, it fixed the bug for a lot of people that i know that had the bug appear just on orbitz expanded.

:confused:

Don't forget to clear your cache, or else it'll continue to load the old page.

What I don't like about Firebird is the lame feature set. I have to search for plugins for the simplest features

Which browser includes all of these things, without having to install plugins or third party applications?
