Great. I hope they fixed the copy-and-paste issues in linux. Those were
really anoying because they would lock up your whole screen.

Ah, thanks Rimantas - last time I checked (a couple of weeks ago), the 0.7.6
version for Mac wasn't there, only the older 0.6.2 version (which definitely
doesn't work with FF1.5).

Hi all

Just a quick reminder that the WSG "on-topic sphere" doesn't include
software support , like broken extensions. In this case you will
probably get the best responses at the mozilla support sites.

Discussion of browsers and their standards support (or not) is, of course, on topic.

i don't think it actually ignores the second center... it just reads your body's height as 0px. Notice that if you have 'center top' it shows all of your background image, but with 'center center', it only shows half, as the background image has been vertically centered at 0px.
as a quick test - specifying the body height to 100% centers your image in FF 1.5 on PC.--adam--On 12/1/05, Zach <

RE: [WSG] firefox 1.5 is official

2005-11-29 Thread Kevin Yank
The rendering you're seeing is because the body of the page has zero height
(a quirks mode behaviour, I suspect). Firefox isn't ignoring the second
center at all.

Simply typing this into the address bar fixes your layout:

javascript:alert(document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0].style.height='100%
');

Set the height property of the body to 100% in your CSS to get the desired
rendering. Or as I mentioned previously, make your page valid HTML instead
of just a couple of disembodied tags.

You might try making that page valid HTML, so that Firefox obeys CSS

I installed 1.5 with 1.07 already installed, it just upgraded
without fuss and without questions/dialogs. I too got the dialog
about my extensions, it offered to check for updates. The web
dev toolbar was upgraded seamlessly, but my often used ViewEXIF

I knew they were 8 days ago when it was announced among the Mozilla
developers that the release of 1.5 was expected to be no more than
renaming 1.5rc3. I've been running the 1.5 branch releases since they
were initially released as 1.5b1.

> The web developer toolbar has and update that works with 1.5

I did not install web dev in rc3, only in 1.0.7. I use two Firefox
profiles, one for the latest release, in which I have the latest web dev
installed, and one for some newer non-release version in which I never
install any extensions of any kind, that I have been using with the
pre-release 1.5's.

So, the question remains, does a release version profile with web dev
installed work without doing anything special when upgrading the release
version from 1.0.x to 1.5?

I understand that much.

What I don't understand is why was this implemented as a new element. Shouldn't 
it be an Object?

From looking at the spec, it seems to pretty much replicates the capabilities 
of SVG, but using JavaScript instead of markup. Why not just use SVG, and use 
JavaScript + DOM if you want to add things dynamically?

Subject: RE: [WSG] firefox 1.5 is official



Can someone explain what the new Canvas element does that SVG doesn't? And
why is it a new element instead of just using the Object tag?

Now, a funny note. Firefox 1.5 has a new feature (under the help menu) 
called Report a Broken Web Site. I wanted to see what it was like so I 
clicked on it. Within the tool there is a link to a Mozilla Privacy 
Policy, but it's a dead link. A broken site? Just thought it was amusing.

It's time to upgrade. If you haven't been using the beta, you'll be
pleasantly surprised.

Yes. I just installed 1.5 into the 1.07 folder and of the 20 extensions
I have installed only 3 didn't update or function.

If you already have RC3 installed then you don't need to install this 
(as they are the same).


The web developer toolbar has and update that works with 1.5
