Title: Weird Firefox Bug
Post by: Funt Solo on 17 April, 2007, 11:42:20 AM
I've only noticed this since the site came back online after that whole server-down fiasco recently.

Sometimes, when I hit Return (in the box I'm typing into right now), but more often when I hit Return twice in quick succession (to start a new paragraph) the browser crashes.

This only seems to happen in Firefox, and only on this site, although it might be a Firefox-textarea issue that I just haven't come across in any other site.

I'm using firefox and haven't found any problems(bar the usual ones caused by my slow-ass computer).

Use a decent browser like Opera ;-)

Nope. Not experienced that one.
Which version of Firefox are you using?

::"Which version of Firefox are you using?"

Firefox 2.0.  (Oddly, it happens at Uni, on their pricey laptop, just about every day, but only happened once at home on my years old desktop.)

It only seems to happen when I'm typing really fast (cos I got skillz), and bang return twice in quick succession immediately upon reaching the end of a paragraph.  Maybe I should just slow down.

Ho ho @ "switch to Opera".  I suppose I should at least have a shot of Opera at some point in my life.

Och, this whole Opera/Firefox thing is nonsense.  They're both pretty good browsers with some differences (add-one for Firefox, functionality for Opera - if you're on dial-up, definitely Opera).

Hmm. I'm using v2.0.0.3, and I've never had that happen. Could it be a conflict with some other background app?

I've had my firefox hang up a couple of times on this site too, come to think of it.
