Ditto. dom.storage.enabled on a clean FF install is 'true'. Same for SM 2.1b2pre, and I tested turning off on SM 2.0.1.10 w/no change. > Can see *some* thumbs on *some* pages, e.g. on the side of the movie.

That would be my guess as the issue occurs in all Mozilla based browsers that I've tried (Win & linux). I even went so far as to test in WinXP IE8... works there. Added note: had an issue with SM & FF flash on abc.com (jerky playback w/full episodes. Thought it was flash, installed a new graphics card the customer's machine, same issue. Full episode playbacks work just fine w/Opera, Chromium/Chrome, IE8... switched the customer over to non-mozilla browswers in the interim. I've promoted/supported Netscape/Mozilla from pretty much day one (I still have a copy of my original Netscape license & floppies), but quite honestly I'm tiring of quirks like this that require ad nauseum troubleshooting on a regular basis. I can troubleshoot on a personal basis, but when it comes to doing the same for several hundred customers/relatives/etc., I simply find I no longer have the time any longer. I guess it's akin to the spam JHD issue; report spam, no 'Just Hit Delete (JHD)' and move on. I prefer to report, but there are times when user productivity & time becomes paramount. Now the interesting part is that Mozilla obtains/obtained a good portion of it's revenue from Google (youtube owners)... Interesting that troubles do not occur in Chromium/Chrome. One would think that the Mozilla devs would have a direct link to Google & be able to sort this out within a few hours. By review of the youtube forums it doesn't appear that this is the case: <http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/youtube/label?lid=685878cd44b81c60&hl=en> _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
