Problem using the forum (osX)

Post #1by ElChristou » 10.06.2007, 13:31

Strangely I just upgrade my Camino Browser (firefox for Mac) to 1.5 and the buttons (bold, quote, code, etc...) of the posting form don't work anymore... any suggestions?

It's probably a Camino bug.. FWIW I use plain Firefox, not Camino and Firefox has always worked.

Yep, I'm almost sure; Safari or Firefox just works fine... too bad, Camino is just great... :?

Why you guys don't stay with Safari ? It's just perfect.

Agreed. It fits in much more nicely with all of Mac OS's background services than Firefox or even Camino and it markedly faster.
There is even a decent slew of plugins to be found for Safari these days.

Unfortunately Safari is less compatible with various web sites.

Well yeah, but that's getting better (and only will keep getting better) as we keep using the app.

Chris, apparently you can do something to fix this kind of problem (it's not a Camino bug); see:

I'm presently testing Safari 3 beta, really amazing how fast is this browser... 8O 8O

Btw, it's also available for Windows, but don't forget it's a beta... (possible bugs)
