print pageAnybody else with FF3 problems?
Hi,
I really liked Firefox for a long time. It was faster and had a lot of nice plugins that makes life much easier. Especially for web development. But I have a very strange feeling with version 3 at the moment.
It's proclaimed a final version but it has so much problems, not only with TYPO3. First of all, many plugins don't work anymore. Well, this will change very soon of course. But on the other hand I can't imagine that so much in the API has been changed. Anyway...
The second point is, that TYPO3 does not work very well with FF3. The annoying frame problem was fixed with the last releases of course but there still some issues open and I don't think that it is a problem of TYPO3. For example, when I edit a news entry with HTMLarea it's impossible in FF3 to change the focus of the input field as it is locked inside HTMLarea (Not that I can see where the cursor is but the characters appear). I never had such problems in FF2 or any other browser.
Maybe it's a combined problem of HTMLarea and Firefox and it might be not that big issues for other users. But for me it makes Firefox not usable at the moment. Especially for this page. I hope that some fixes will come out soon to get rid of this annoying bugs.
Greets,
Thomas

Maybe need to wait ver. 3.1
Now I uninstall FF3 and install FF2.

I also have more or less big problems with FF3.
In one T3 4.2 installation everything is ok and in another it`s not ok... I don`t know why. Seems to be a JS Problem (uncaught exception: script.aculo.us requires the Prototype JavaScript framework >= 1.6.0)
I´ll use the FF3 atm only for surfing, for working i have installed a FF2 Portable Edtion...
Cheers

There is no way back... I have installed FF3 upgrade all my TYPO3 installations to 4.2 and 4.1.7. Dont have any problems currently. Of course there something like 3.8.x exists and I have Opera for it.
Any way more and more people come to FF3 and compatibility problems usually solved by web-applications developers (HTMLArea, TYPO3, etc.)
Currently I have almost all my FF-extenstions back - Firebug, WebDeveloper, FlashGot, ScrapBook, Foxmarks, etc.
I vote for FF3 8=)

I have had very _few_ problems with firefox. Biggest one I could remember was fixed in RC1 (contacts not showing in gmail) ... But other then that, it works fine.
On the other hand, I don't work in the Typo3 Backend on a regular basis.
PS: Thomas, I thought you despised WYSIWYG editors?

I absolutely accompany to you!
I have to work a lot with TYPO3 "Dinosaurs" (3.7, 3.8) and it is not possible to work with FF3 and the TYPO3 backend in this releases.
Ok, it might be a HTML/Javascript issue of TYPO3 but nevertheless it is annoying.
