Firefox 3 bug
in [Mac Applications]
|
From: Heli on 18 Jun 2008 09:02 There seems to be something wrong with the character encoding of Firefox 3. It does not stick to the values set, but need changing each time the browser starts up. Have a look at this page: http://radio.weblogs.com/rankingsByPageReads.html Scroll down and you'll see some question marks. Maybe it's only Macs, but there is no way to set the prefs differently. It keeps changing back.

I don't have Firefox 3 (still using version 2), so the page renders fine here. Why don't you report this to the Firefox team: <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/> -- Please send all responses to the relevant news group rather than directly to me, as E-mail sent to this address may be devoured by my very hungry SPAM filter. Due to Google's refusal to prevent spammers from posting messages through their servers, I often ignore posts from Google Groups. You'll need to use a real news reader if you want me to see your posts. JR
