I get error when accepting cookies as well it just has a dialog box with <dialog id ="cookieAcceptDialog" ^ in it and you can't click anything

 

[Electronic Punk]

Default theme looks well, boring?

 

[Khayman]

Fixed it! completly uninstalled everything then installed it again and imported the old settings manualy (this was the key)

Does the backup and restore utility work with 0.9?

 

[Geffy]

I havent got any version I can use, but I have got them all through BitTorrent and will seed them for 24 hours after they have completed

 

[Khayman]

Now i get an anoying error in Outlook 2003, when i click a link it brings up a dialog box that says "locate link browser". But it opens the link as well. And if i select the firefox executable in the dialog, it opens the link twice

There is a page on MSKB about it but it says its becuase you have netscape 6.2 as default and should upgrade to XP 🙄

 

[Electronic Punk]

Your browser is out of date please install XP?

Well, it convinced me!

 

[Khayman]

if i change IE to default browser its fine 🙁

thanks netRyder that was exactly what I was looking for

 

[Khayman]

I can't get damn TBE to enable the expert settings. Arggh

There is only "open in new tab" (which opens a new active tab, which it never used to) on the right click menu but no "open in new active tab"

 

[Khayman]

FOR **** SAKE. Now things open both firefox an IE. I've had enough of this

 

[Khayman]

I've had to kill many people, but i'm calm now

 

[Geffy]

argh, lookin at the number of patches for firefox 0.8 I am guessing its going to be a couple of days before I can get my hands on it

 

[gonaads]

Just wait Khayman... before you have a heart attack. 😛

Installed 0.9 and it's working perfect. Well, except for one extension (View in IE extension), it creates a nice XML error at the bottom of the screen...

 

[shaunj66]

Anyone know how to get rid of this horrible black bar around the top of my menus? 🙁 Just installed 0.9 with new profile... completely fresh install...

Assuming you are using Windows XP, it looks like an incompatibility with the Windows XP theme you are using. It's not an error in FireFox, instead contact the creators of your theme.

btw, looking at the font used it might also be *nix you are using. Again, this is a part of the skin of the Window Manager, nothing FF can do.

Thanks for the quick reply. That really sucks... and yes, I am using Windows XP with a theme. I'll guess I'll send the auhtor of the theme an e-mail. Thanks again Glaanieboy. 🙂

 

[Glaanieboy]

No problem 😉

My tabs continue to say (Loading) even after the page is done. I have 3 tabs open right now and they all say this.
