For Firefox lovers!

Is it just me or does this forum perform differently with firefox and IE. e.g When I try to put a hyperlink in - on firefox you can't highlight a word and click the hyperlink button then type in the link. Instead you have to type in the word, and the URL. Also the link appears at the bottom of the page not where the cursor is.
-on IE I just highlight the word, type in the URL and there it is.

Is there a add on to fix this?

Works fine for me

Are you using IE tab within firefox as it will work fine if you do that. But try add a link in IE and then in firefox with no IE tab and you will see the difference.

Also I got myself Deer Park Alpha 2 and now my spell checker can't work. The pop up is too small that I can't see the spelling checking stuff.

Anyway I got myself 2 more extensions.

Foxy Tunes

Colourful tabs

It works for me in both a firefox or ie tab.

Ok this is what I mean. In firefox if I try and highlight "here" the following screen appears.


Whereas in IE when I highlight "Here" this is what appears.


What I would like is for firefox to be able to do what IE can do.

Lol, its a werid thing, I downloaded Opera and it does the same thing. If only I could get IE 7 beta 2 working.

Anyway I'm very happy with firefox, I love these extensions you can have.

After getting Norton to allow Firefox (and it took a while) it is significantly faster! Now I am getting some add ons

Where do you see the speed increases? I find the PC forum's load faster with firefox.

A skin for firefox. It is possible, but don't look at me, I'm already doing enough coding. Also I don't have the right tools to create one (dodgy excuse, but true), ie. C++ compiler.

There is a new version but its a beta. Its called Deer Park Alpha 2 aka version 1.6. I've got it cause I love new stuff
