Hey guys, finally decided to download FireFox and see what all the hype is about. I dont normally touch browsers until they’ve been time proven, and as of right now FF is still just being offered as a “preview release”, but hey I had to check it out. Very nice, good loading, gotta love the tabs since I am looking so many pages at a time during the day. However I have been noticing differences in page display… at first it really wasnt anything big, just stuff I noticed on pages I go to alot… now Ive found some things that actually inhibit my ability to navigate certain sites… example: www.di.fm they have a drop menu, that works fine in IE and it works fine in FF - BUT - when it should drop down over the “FEATURES” section you cannot see the nav.
Could some one else check this, I would like to be sure it is not just my system. Also have any of you other FF users experienced problems since most designers/developers are not yet really trying to make their stuff fully FF compatible?
Peace

That’s probably because the page wasn’t made to follow W3C standards.

did you look at it?
it actually seems to be a problem FF has with displaying a JAVA dropdown/tree menu over a .swf file… in FF I cant even see the swf, or the Java drop down that should be over it. ??? hmmm
Peace

Did you install the Java 2 RE for Mozilla-type browsers?
The HTML validators don’t seem to like it either. [http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A//www.di.fm/](http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A//www.di.fm/)

It doesn’t work for me either, I’d say it’s an incompatibility error.
The navigation on www.westpac.com.au doesn’t work at all in anything but IE (which is the only website I ever look at in IE - by force!).

Tune into DI.FM via **iTunes** - you get a 96kbps stream instead of the 32kbps Windows Media stream available from their site 😃
and yes, there are some annoyances with Firefox, but I guess it’s just like anything else. Whether it be Mac vs Win, or coffee vs tea… you’ll get around it 😛
Welcome to FF.

Hm? I don’t know if it’s just me, but it seems to be working fine…
