FIREFOX IS A PIECE OF CRAP.
Firefox is becoming worse than I.E. Open 15 porn pages with videos and your computer goes to shit. It hangs, it's slow, a pain. I do it on I.E. and it doesn't give me any trouble. I have top of the line PC with 4 gigs of ram.
For god's sake, Firefox hasn't even gotten his bookmarks together yet! There are a lot of issues with restoring bookmarks, especially problems with "Bookmark Toolbar Folder" which doesn't get restored to the appropriate place. That's just plain basic programming stuff. I doubt FF is that secure. I'm using I.E. more often now. Probably will uninstall this piece of firefox crap.
FF3
I was part of the download day and i use FF3 to download huge files from my gmail to desktop but browser hangs up and message pops up saying preparing to send error message. i had to re-start FF3 9 times to finish downloading. Never had this problem with FF2.
Firefox 3
I have found that in all my websites .. which view perfectly in firefox 2 IE and safari are viewing improperly in Firefox3 .. Basically any where i have flash embedded on a site firefox 3 is creating a extra space below the swf file .. so on sites where i had the flash matched up perfectly it messes up my whole site .. example top logo on this site http://www.winshipandwinship.com/ on other sites the dmaage isnt as bad but still creates a space below each embeedded flash movie that firefox 2 did not .. here are some expamples .. compare them to IE safari or firefox 2 .. and you wont see the extra spaces http://www.fairgroundhomes.com/ http://www.casperworks.biz/ http://www.wyomingprofab.com/ this is just a few .. all these sites view great in the old firefox as well as the other two browsers .. I have more examples of my work at http://www.waveswebdesign.com I use dreamweaver to embedd my flash .. if anyone could help me figuer out the code issue or whatever i can do to fix this problem please help me .. please .. i might not be the best designer .. but i cringe when i see my sites break apart on the new firefox.
fixed it
add this to your css and you should be right:
object {
display:block;
}
It really works..
That was a really cool solution..
I had similar problem, and it worked for me :-)
My flash deisplays properly now...
THanks dude !
CSS code worked
The code definitely worked. But my layout looks distorted. The "object " preference duplicated my .swf files in my layout. Any suggestions?
Firefox 3 - Spacing issue with flash
I am having the same problem as Anthony Marcil. Underneath my embedded swfs, extra 5px of space is being added. I've combed through the code over and over and can't figure out why this is happening. I am using swfobject to embed my flash and i know that it's something to do with this, as i have other pages that use a different embedding method and they don't have the space.
i would be extremely pleased if anyone could offer any suggestions.
Amazing Webpage Emailer not 4 Firefox 3
From my searches on the net, I've found that jkn.com's Amazing Webpage Emailer doesn't work anymore with Firefox's "Upgrade."
It's been a godsend in the past allowing me to email clients what I have discovered for them. I'll bet that many other users of this service resent the loss of this very popular service. Any feedback will confirm my thoughts.
Any quick fixes to this problem would be appreciated as well. There are truly a lot of smart people out there... just not at Mozilla.

I was a part of the guiness world record
Well whenever there is a new release, some hackers will find a way to prove vulnarabilities. So go ahead and accept the newest version. Oh ya.. i had blogged on this new firefox 3 in my blog http://blog.kannada-greetings.com/?p=14
thats exactly why
I am waiting to download.
Wanted to be part of the download day record etc but at the samtime you have to think about vunerabilities and plugin issues.
Why not?
The same flaw is also apparent in FireFox 2. No need to wait...
Not to mention FF beats the
Not to mention FF beats the hell out of IE or any of your other options on any given day.
Security flaws are inevitable, and there will surely be more... download FF3 with confidence.. and knowing the most browser vulnerabilities are due to user stupidity.
"and knowing the most
"and knowing the most browser vulnerabilities are due to user stupidity". You are dumb man. FF is becoming another IE and will be in the gutter soon. Don't kid yourself.
Agreed
Mozilla did a Microsoft and released the software way too early. Another IE in the making for sure! ServicePack 2 anyone?
