The browser keeps showing the original page. It just doesn't load.
More people with the same 'bug' experience? Or something i could do to

Now, since I've been using it more often the bug hasn't occured lately.
Could it have been old profile stuff that messed things up? And which

Does this/these apparent new Thunderbird, SeaMonkey or Firefox manuals

Just wondering, as so many of these manuals or instructions we see were

Far FAR too much has changed for many manuals to be of real value to

Bill Davidsen wrote:

I'll probably get my post taken down for this, but wouldn't it be easier
to provide a compatibility check disable in about:config that actually
WORKS instead of having some of us creating hacked xpi files and others
staying with old versions because they can't or won't?


First of all, I don't see why anyone would kill a post with such content.

The situation with SM regarding incompatible extensions can be
summarized as follows: First, there are two (10 ;-)) kind of extensions:
Those that declare compatibility with at least some version of SM (let's
call them used to work), and those that don't (let's call them
unsupported).

For extensions that used to work (like QuoteCollapse), you can simply
install the Add-on Compatibility Reporter from AMO. It is currently
compatible with all SM versions from 2.1 (stable) through 2.4a1 (trunk).
This has the added benefit over simply setting the compatibility prefs
yourself (which you don't have to remember to set anymore!) that you can
let the extension authors know that their versions still work with the
SM version you are using.

Unsupported extensions however are different. They cannot be installed
or enabled in SM at all unless you hack their install.rdf (or someone
releases a new, supported version of course). Sometimes that's
unfortunate since the author just blindly removed SM support from
install.rdf, but it certainly is the safest thing to do as a default. To
my knowledge, there is no extension that automatically hacks install.rdf
for you (which, in the case of a download/install, would have to happen
in between the download and the install!).

The system, as outlined above, is part of the Mozilla platform (i.e.
shared with Firefox). Consequently, any change to it needs to be made to
the platform code, which is under Firefox development ruling. I'd assume
that any request regarding install.rdf hacking (even pref-guarded) would
be turned down, so I wouldn't bother trying.

Currently there is a compatibility check which can be disabled, but setting it 
doesn't disable compatibility checking! That's kind of a waste. There was (is) 
also another check disable, which I can't find quickly in my notes, something like:

  extensions.checkCompatibility.2.1
or similar, which actually did something, but doesn't seem to any more (which is 
why I don't have it enabled currently). If there were a config to ignore 
compatibility checking beyond the first (major) number, it would at least give 
people a chance to try things.


I assume that the reason people work on Seamonkey is because they want people to 
use it, therefore an option to disable at least some of the checks would be 
really useful. This *is* use at your own risk software, and an option is WAY 
safer than having users fiddling inside install.rdf.

No. You won't lose much this way, but only if you use different computer 
names, the Tabs from Other Computers (from the View menu) feature will 
start making sense. ;-)

It works both ways. Normally, Sync runs in the background, but you can 
also trigger it manually (form the Tools menu or using the optional 
customizable toolbar button). When it starts a sync run, it merges 
incoming changes with outgoing ones and transfers the result back to the 
server (well, actually I don't know where exactly the merging happens 
but it works). You can disable syncing certain aspects of your profile 
(like bookmarks or history) per client, and each time you set up a new 
client, you can define how the initial sync should be done (under Sync 
Options: merge, replace local or replace remote).

I'm not sure what you mean, but as you can see from my message, there
are ways to customize the message.

Many of them are achievable by editing the mailnews.reply_header_*
options in about:config. It has been a while since I last changed mine,
but I suppose there is a reference somewhere -- let me see...

...yes, here it is:

http://kb.mozillazine.org/Mailnews.reply_header_*

I don't know if there is an extension/tool to help customizing it. There
might be; it doesn't look like it would be a big job to write one.

It's also possible to customize the signature, in two levels:

1. In the Account Settings dialog, you can create a custom signature.
2. You can also use additional software, like TagZilla, to add custom
taglines.

Re: Sync on SM 2.1 -- What is computer name?

2011-06-27 Thread Jens Hatlak

MCBastos wrote:

By the way, is there a bug to discuss the UI aspects of the Sync
feature?


Sync UI has its own Bugzilla Component under Product SeaMonkey. You can 
easily search what's there. But Bugzilla is not really the place for 
longer discussions, so here we go:



- Change the toolbar button graphic (it looks too big for the Default
Theme, and the animated version is ugly)?


It's what I was able to come up with in the short time I had. The 
alternative was to not have icons in different sizes and no throbber at 
all. If anyone comes up with better graphics our reviewers would surely 
like to see them, but if all that happens is that a bug is created then 
I fear nothing will change (similar to bug 22112).



- Provide an alternative, less intrusive feedback (like a statusbar
mini-icon) to show that Sync is working/worked/failed?


Sync had a status bar icon in the beginning but it was removed for 
several reasons (one was the idea that Sync should just work, the 
other that the status bar was replaced by the add-ons bar in FF). Now 
that the SM Sync UI code is under our control, we could of course revert 
that decision, but to me that's not a top priority and maybe we'll 
switch to the add-ons bar at some point in time, too (active by default 
probably, acting like the current status bar, but with the ability to 
put customizable toolbar buttons like the Sync one there). You may of 
course file an enhancement bug for your suggestion.

I agree that SOMETHING is needed to show that Sync is working, preferably 
something that could be disabled (Don't show this window again). As is, one 
has no idea if Sync is working, how it's working, if it's stopped working, etc.


I love this feature!

For financial institutions, I have a separate SeaMonkey profile.  It
differs from my usual profile in two major settings.  For my usual
profile, I accept cookies only for the requested domain and I block
unrequested popups.  For financial services, I accept all cookies and
all popups.  Also, for one bank, I spoof Firefox without any mention of
SeaMonkey.

If you are on WindowsXP try playing around with the following preferences:

// use cleartype rendering for downloadable fonts (win xp only)
pref(gfx.font_rendering.cleartype.use_for_downloadable_fonts, true);
// use cleartype rendering for all fonts always (win xp only)
pref(gfx.font_rendering.cleartype.always_use_for_content, false);

Phil

Found the problem. Downloaded Firefox 5.0  Had the same exact problem 
with text in bookmarks and certain sites like slickdeals.net. Updated my 
video drivers. No help. Looked on Mozilla Firefox forum for some similar 
problems. Found one guy shut off hardware acceleration and fixed a weird 
letter spacing problem he had. Shut off hardware acceleration in 
Firefox. Problem gone. I expect the same when I reinstall Seamonkey 2.1 
or 2.2 when available.

Oh!  I am sorry for my previous rude reply.

The Mnenhy extension might help, but I don't think the current version
is compatible with SeaMonkey 2.1.

You might also look at the preference variables described at
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Mail_and_news_settings.  On that page search
for mailnews . reply (without the quotes).  Note that the actual
preference variables do NOT have spaces bracketing the period.  However,
these are only for replies and possibly forwarded messages.

Finally, you might create a signature that includes your desired
salutation.  Then, when you compose a message you just start after the
salutation and before the actual signature.

I have had good experience with the new Yahoo mail by using IEtab, just for

If you use the last suggestion (a signature that includes the
