HTG/Firefox - Edit box limits
(18 posts)
Ya, Firefox does not even let me log into the HTG Forum. I must have missed a "Plug-in of the day" somewhen last year. It remembers my ID and password, but refuses to log me in. I like the idea of a second browser especially when I want to look something up in the middle of a Forum posting. I may try Opera for that instead because AOL also has it's flaws.
That's very odd that Firefox doesn't work for you... I do almost all my testing in Firefox, and I've got 4 different Firefox installations that I use for testing, never seen an issue.
I also test the entire site in Opera, Safari and IE6 / IE7 and even IE8 (there are a few issues with the site in IE6 and 8)
It really gets to be a pain for a website owner that there are so many browsers... far too much testing required.
Yep, it is.
I like Firefox as there are a lot of useful extensions, advanced features and customization I can do with it.
I think Internet Explorer works just fine also for normal browsing when you don't need a bunch of extra things.
I used Internet Explorer 6 for quite a while until Firefox came out and many people said it was better then Internet Explorer.
The main things I like about Firefox over Internet Explorer is the Tab Browsing, Find as you type and Spell Checker.
If I hadn't found so many useful other features and extensions after switching to Firefox I probably would switched to Internet Explorer 7 + IE7Pro.
I still use Internet Explorer 7 + IE7Pro when I can't use or don't need Firefox.

Can you give an example? It always seemed just as easy to use in it's default state as Internet Explorer to me.
