Title: Front page Problems with Firefox .9.1
Post by: schild on July 20, 2004, 11:49:08 AM
Can I get a roll call of who can't view the front page and a description of what happens. If someone posts the same problem before, just chime in and say 'I have the same thing happening as x.' It's tough to find the problem seeing as I can view it with 4 different browsers.

There's a front page?

Just kidding, fine here. Win2kPro, using IE 6.0 to view.

Bring the noise.
Cheers............

Not so with Firefox 0.9.1.

I've said so on another thread, but it tries to download the front page like it's a file, rather than as a page.

Front page looks fine.

Running IE on Mac OSX at work. As always, cant click on the "Forums" link. So I usually just go directly to the forums while at work.

Front page works for me, but for some reason my "click to go to place you last left the thread" buttons keep resetting after I read one thread. Don't know what that's all about.

Ok, I upgraded to .9.1, and sure enough, it tries to download the page. It's possible that Firefox is misinterpreting the php code. I'm gonna search through some of their dev files and see if it's already been address. But I can pretty much assure that this is not a server side issue.

Firefox 0.9.2 is fine.

Seeing as how it's a security update to 0.9.1, everyone should be updating to 0.9.2.

Do you mean the little yellow 'new posts' icons? I am experiencing the same thing...

XP Pro IE 6.0 SP1

Don't touch the yellow icons, they are bad juju. Click on the white paper icon on the right side. Frankly I dislike the way phpBB handles new posts and it would be nice if it could take me directly to the newest message (for me) of a thread just by click on said thread.

It brings a tear to my eye to see so many using Firefox.   What an enlighteded group of beautiful people you are.  I love you all.

My Firefox and your website have no issues anymore.

I initially updated Firefox .8 to .9, and was very unhappy with the browser.  It looks like my call of giving Firefox .9 a month or two of being out, before downloading it, was right.

When I initially designed the front page I tested it in both Firefox and IE, and let's just say that IE is a finnicky bitch when it comes to coding (I wish everyone used Firefox).
