But I'm using Firefox! (FF47.0.1, Win 7) The text adds the phrase: "In this configuration" suggesting that there is some way to configure your browser to make it work. Perhaps that phrase should be dropped? Perhaps it should also not point a person to a tiddler that doesn't exist and that could only tell the user that it doesn't work in some browsers? It's a bit of a teaser the way it is now.
Thanks!
