There is a thread in OSM-talk http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk/2008-May/026384.html concerning the fact that the JOSM WMS pluging does not work with Firefox 3. The issue has also been raised in TRAC in the following ticket http://josm.openstreetmap.de/ticket/785. This is to move the discussion to this list as there may be people better able to address this issue then myself or those on the OSM-talk list.
The problem is a result of the mozilla bug report https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=379015 where the feature that JOSM uses in Firefox to dump Yahoo images has been removed in Firefox 3 as it "was not being used" and I have checked the Firefox 3 source code and it has indeed been removed. In the mozilla bug report Andrzej Zaborowski asked what JOSM should be using and Robert O'Callahan responded > > Use an embedding tool like gnome-web-photo. > > Or write a Firefox extension or a .xul app (launched using -chrome) that loads > pages, snapshots them using canvas.drawWindow, and uses toDataURL to produce a > PNG image Francisco R. Santos frsantos at gmail.com indicated on OSm-talk > I have a very basic prototype using a swing browser component > (the Cobra library) inside JOSM displaying an openlayers frame, > but didn't have time to continue it. > If anyone is interested to continue it, > I can give the sources or commit it to SVN.
