|
There are times when I go to the forums, that when I try to go back to the Queue/Played screen, the hyperlink is a little befuddled, to use a technical term To be more precise, it seems to be adding the ad clickthrough refferal link to the pages link
Link.
This is happening with Firefox 0.9.3 under WindowsXP. I'll check with Linux soon. Anyone else experiencing this? |

This is happening to me to (though not every time -- and reloading seems to help). Firebird 0.7.
I've also noticed that the drop-down menu selection on the Request page doesn't seem to work in Firefox 0.9.x. (i.e. I click on one of the album or artist letters on the drop-down menu, but it doesn't load the relevant page). I've had to use the search field to get the album info. |

Using Firefox 0.9.x, and I do not have the problem with the drop-down menus. Sometimes, I have to wait for the page to fully load before they work though. I also have to wait for a full page load before I can select an album.
As far as going back to the Queued/Played page from the forum pages goes, I tend to open up the forum pages (as well as the Requests page) in seperate tabs. I know it doesn't fix the problem, but I don't have to deal with it then either. _________________ "insert your own clever quote here.... I'm too lazy to do it." |

This problem is caused by the tabbed browser extentions plugin. |

Ah cool...thanks, Cocles, guess I'll just live with the issue. As annoying and buggy as the tabbrowser extension can be, it's still one of my favourites. |

Well, just for the record, the only extensions I have installed are Firesomething, Basics, Popup Count, Linkification, and GMail Notifier. |

Filmgoer,
Firefox PR 1.0 was released tonight, and having installed the newest tabbed browser extentions plugin, the drop down menus now work perfectly. |

What does the tabbed browser extension give you that vanilla Firefox doesn't?

What *doesn't* it give you is a better question
My favourite is the ability to Undo closed tabs...very handy if you happen to accidentally close a tab and then realize that you want it open again.
You can lock tabs so that the URL doesn't change in them, you can set an auto-refresh for a tab, you can use the right-click menu to close all the tabs or to only close those to the right/left of the tab you have selected, you can also change the permissions for a tab (disabling Javascript/Java/Auto-refreshing/Images/Frames).
There are lots of other things that it allows you to do, but these are the ones that I find most interesting/useful.
Those interested can find the extension at Outsider Reflex |

Thanks for the tip filmgoer. I'm a fan of Session Saver myself. I'd point you to MozDev but it seems to be down at the moment.
