I checked in the Control Panel file associations and they're set to
open PDF
files with Adobe reader.

So why is it doing this?

There appears to be no file associations settings in the SM email itself.



With no more info than this I'd have to guess an errant add-in/plug-in
screwing things up.



On second thought ...

In SeaMonkey click Edit - Preferences - Browser - Helper Applications. 
Scroll down to PDF Document, click to highlight.  See what is listed in 
the action column.  If it says Use Windows Media Center that's the 
problem.  Click the down arrow on the right and choose an appropriate 
action.

If NO helper applications in SeaMonkey involve Windows Media after you
follow Mullen's suggestion, I would definitely disable the plugin via
the Add-ons Manager.

I know this has been addressed before but am wondering if any progress
has been made toward a solution of adding a close button on tabs in SM

or if the tab is at the far right just click the close button on the
right or middle click on a tab to close it but my middle click button
has quite working on my mouse and hate to buy a new one.



In the SM Modern Theme there is a close button in the right hand corner
of the Tab bar which will close the current Tab.  That's what I use, but
I know what you mean, Safari has the button on the Tab itself.

Personally, I'm content with either implementation.  Though I do find
that it's quicker to close multiple Tabs using the SM implementation
because you don't have to move the cursor - just click away.


I much prefer the Seamonkey implementation. The open new tab and close 
existing tab buttons are always in the same place. That's one of the 
reasons I don't regularly use Firefox, where the corresponding buttons 
move depending upon how many tabs you have open.


I haven't tried it in Firefox, but if I have more tabs open in a window 
than are displayed on the tab bar, I can get to the open new tab button 
in Seamonkey regardless of which tab I'm displaying. If Firefox's 
implementation works the same way as Seamonkey, I would first have to go 
to the right-most tab to expose the open new tab button and then click 
the button.

Works for me - tells me that 2.14.2 is available. I backed down to
2.13.2 and did Help|Check for updates:
Screenshot:
http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/221/screenshotfrom201212021.png/

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686 on x86_64; rv:16.0) Gecko/20121026
Firefox/16.0 SeaMonkey/2.13.2

Note: I haven't tried from Centos (yet). The above is from an Ubuntu 12.04.

Regarding update notifications; SeaMonkey may briefly flash an update
indicator, but doesn't seem to do the same as Firefox where FF pops up a
new window.


Sorry for the 3+ weeks delay.

I noticed on http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/ today that the 
32-bit version of SM 2.14.1 for Linux was available, so I went to Help 
- Check for Updates... to manually check for the update. SM told me 
There are no updates available. Seamonkey will check periodically for 
updates.


I saw that FF had also been updated (from 16.0.2 to 17.0.1), so I tried 
the same thing in FF. It told me FF at 16.0.2 was up-to-date.


What mechanism do SM and FF use to check for updates? What URLs do they 
check?


Thanks,


Craig

Google Earth Plugin Problem

2012-12-26 Thread Tom Pamin
I'm having a problem with the Google Earth plugin on this site. If you 
click on any plane, it gives you details in the left hand column. If you 
click on cockpit view, it gives you 4 views out the cockpit window using 
Google Earth. Very cool. The problem is it flashes very badly, and is 
hardly viewable. This happens on all 3 of my PC's, both XP and Windows 7 
64-bit. Can someone try this and see if there is a solution?

Great! And if you have many tabs open and want to find out how many 
there are, you can right-click on tab - Close Other Tabs and get a 
message saying, You are about to close N other tab(s). Are you sure you 
want to continue? Clicking cancel will stop the close process.


   NOTE: You MUST have the Warn me when I attempt to close
 other tabs option enabled!

I do not, however, see any settings for that in Edit - Preferences...

(Maybe someone else can tell me where it is.)

Hi Tom
flightradar24 works fine here although I only get a front looking view 
from the cockpit view and It can be a wee bit slow but doesn't flash.  I 
wouldn't like to fly a plane using it as the heads up display!

You can get the 4 views by clicking on Rotate View. Wonder why it 
flashes on all of my PC's?

That only provides a warning if you have requested closing the entire
