page 1 of 1

Obviously we all agree that Firefox is a much better browser than IE, the question being that does your firefox display your homepage of MT correctly?
Well, if you are subscribed to some groups, the firefox will display the boundary out of bounds, try view my homepage in firefox for a good example. Also, the header has some unexpected formatting even though the HTML code i wrote is right
I have tried viewing my homepage via IE, its normal. but Firefox displays weirdly

If you want an answer.

I mostly check MT in firefox when repairing the MT servers. IE is just fscking crap.

hmmm, yeah there's a prob wit theuserpage, but when it comes to browsing mt, firefox tops ie, just one reason, tabbed browsing..firefox doesn't eat that much RAM as opposed to IE because ff doesn't need to open new windows..

I don't agree with you, that IE is worse than Firefox. After some time my Firefox doesn't display any site correctly anymore. Some how it doesn't work anymore after some hours... But MT is made for FF so I guess Firefox is better in displaying MT.

well, firefox is better in terms of features and spyware protection, and rock solid tab browsing, plus anyone got the Mouse gesture extension for firefox, its so freaking cool!
but i admit firefox has problem vieiwing MT and asian language websites,

with same font size and same text...
i tested it myself.. IE is a little crowded but havent seen any difference viewing this thread in FF and IE...
ive used FF once before when IE just got dumb.. and never changed back..
i benefit in the using TAB system in FF.. but i like the alt+tab feature in IE...
does anybody know how to do that?? i dont have a FF user manual...
i need help.. newbieALERT!!!

alt tab feature can be closely emulated by using mouse gesture as an extension in firefox
just go to ww.mozilla.org to download it
for example, go to the next tab would be up>right, just move your mouse, thats freaking kewl

im downloading it now... its that easy? cool!! thanks for the info

d-(^_^)-b --- TWO thumbs up!!!

welcome, all credit goes to shinsengumi, he is the one who showed me, there are custom gestures as well, so you can define it to your own liking

Just press Ctrl+Tab...
But the Mouse Gesture extension is indeed cool. :)

i never visit MT with IE (because I don't ever use it, except for Windows Updates -_- ), but I made the experience that FF displays many sites better.

well i dont use IE besides asian sites
IE is better in asian sites because FF is using a different encoding scheme
you can spoof firefox to do windows updates too

I actually prefer IE, I never got the hang of tab browsing. I use IE for everything. *shrug* No matter how many people say FF is better, I'm not to keen on it. I only ever use it if I'm bored and feel like a change.

Hey, looks like the skins image server is back... I've got my normal MT skin back! I've never had problems using Firefox, except with those sites that are written in Microsoft's horribly mangled version of the W3 standard. It's also possible to write a page that fully complies with W3 and not have it render properly in IE >_<

As for MT, isn't FF the recommended browser? I think file submissions had some issue when done in ie...

I havent tried Firefox on here yet Im still using IE cause I installed Firefox and I couldnt tell what was what cause my OS defaults to Japanese so all the menus were in Japanese. When I finish off my userpage Im gonna reinstall Firefox to upload it at least.

was it in japanese before you installed firefox?

i use both firefox and IE for some reason... but MT's always been displayed properly when i use IE. i only really use FF if i expect to be opening lots of pages since it doesnt crowd my taskbar

yeah that is what i am experiencing right now, i have no idea why tho

I've no problem to display MT interface.. I use Firefox and Mozilla and it well done

I use FF, because its faster in uploading all web pages with noticable differences on MT between FF and IE. Only had one problem with FF and that was after a Windows update >=( , thank you uninstall :)

with me IE fine but FireFox not fine like IE.mine FF is ff1.0.7 it display MT slow than IE and hearder image not show up right way, and not display MT right wat. this reply writed in Netscape 8.0.3.3
this program work find with MT i set the the side display like way firefox do, it just like you.

well I always use firefox to surf the web as it you can do stuff on FF that you cant do on IE, I use FF to when looking through MT and it works fine for me, though for some reason I can't hear the music that have on my MT userpage when I use FF
