hey there everyone. I am having someissues with firefox and w-e not reading right. mainly the about window is not telling me the version, and if I try routing the w-e curser to the window, I get dinged at when I use the errow keys. not only that, sometimes when I am in the address bar with ctrl+l putting in an address, using the errow keys dings at me when I put in an address, and I want to varify it. I got something from jeff bishup that he said someone sent to this list to correct these problems, and for me, it didn't work. I double checked to make sure the settings took, and they did, both values are set to true. here is what he sent me to refresh everyones memory.
Launch Mozilla Firefox or Thunderbird. In Firefox, press Control-L to open a new link.In Thunderbird, select the Tools menu followed by Options. From there, choose the advanced listbox item, Tab to the categories tab control, and Left-Arrow to General. In Firefox, type "about:config" and press Enter.In Thunderbird, press Alt-C to open the configuration editor. If you are presented with a dialog which warns you about the dangers of making changes, Tab to the "I'll be careful, I promise!" button and press Enter. At this point you should be out of Browse mode and on a filter Edit Box. If not, turn off Browse mode by pressing Control-Shift-A. In the filter Edit Box type "direct2d.disabled". Press Tab to get to the list of filtered entries and you should see one called "gfx.direct2d.disabled" with a default value of False. Press Enter to toggle this value to True. Press Shift-Tab to get back to the filter Edit Box and type "layers.acceleration.disabled". Press Tab to get to the list of filtered entries and you should see one called "layers.acceleration.disabled" with a default value of False. Press Enter to toggle this value to True. Press Control-W to close the configuration window. Restart Firefox or Thunderbird. this is with the latest version of firefox, 9.01 and the latest w-e 7.52 any help would be grately appreciated.
