Firefox + the CM

Wondering a couple of things.

1. Just started using Firefox, and I've noticed that the buttons above the reply screen (B, i, u, quote, img, url, etc...) don't work like in IE. When I select the text that I want to put the tags around, and click the button, it just puts the first tag at the end of what I've highlighted.

For example, if I want this:

[ i]and the monkey press the button[/i]

I get this

and the monkey press the button[i]

(and, since I have an open tag, it'll just throw the closing tag at the end of my post).



2. Also noticed that the spacing seems weird on some things. For example, the threads and forum pages all have a side scroll bar at the bottom (which only actually scrolls a negligable amount). Which doesn't make sense, since the board is flexable to different sized windows...



Anyone know why these things are like that, and/or if there's any way to fix 'em?

Thanks. :mrgreen:

Well, I'm still wishing someone would tell me why Firefox won't show my background on LJ.

Nikki, you want to contact hostrocket and see if there is any kind of upgrade or support for firefox users?

I think the stupid scroll bar is at the bottom because you have a small monitor.
I use firefox and here there is no scroll bar but when I'm on a smaller monitor there is one.

Get over it. :P

I doubt there's a fix for Firefox... cept to stop using it. :P

And, actually, I get the horizontal scrollbar on everything, too... it's cos of my small res. It drives me batty, but I deal with it. :nikki:

I don't have a small resolution (or monitor, though the size of the actual montior doesn't mean anything).

For whatever reason, this thread doesn't have a scrollbar at the bottom. I wonder if it fixed itself overnight...? :lol: :freak:

Nope, still got the scroll bar in some threads. :freak:
