F11 abd Twitter

2009-08-17 Thread Aaron Konstam
After wasting an hour it became clear that you can not create Twitter
accounts using firefox under F1. Using User Agent addon to get Internet
explorer doesn't seem to help that much.

Anyone have contrary experiences,

I've been having a lot of contrary experiences with Twitter lately.
Over the weekend, FireFox 3.5 under Fedora 11 dis not appear to be
working on Twitter. On an older machine running FireFox 3.0.x Twitter
was working fine. Today, I was able to post again with FireFox 3.5. I
suspect the folks at Twitter are messing with their javascript and
have found some differences between the two versions of the browser.

It is not so much posting that is the problem. It is creating an account
which fails in firefox and uploading an icon which fails in firefox. I
have no problem posting.

Sorry  I have been corrected.  I created a new account for "the"
cat.  She objects to the use of the term "my cat" since that implies
ownership and 3 cats grace us with their presence.  Oh, and I uploaded a
photo for her which she considers an Icon.

You meant to say "her human created an account for her".

Did you User Agent addon and simulate Internet Explorer. Because there
is no doubt that neither operation would work for me in Firefox 3.5.2

The human entity, living in the same abode, at the pleasure of felines
has added "User Agent Switcher" by Chris Pederick (I think that is the
one you use) to FF 3.5.2 on F11 and has added an account for the middle
cat while simulating IE8.  No problems...and an Iconic photo was also
uploaded without incident.

As we paws for thought, what client does the cat use?  I'm sure we can
all guess the program used for e-mail...

-- 
[...@localhost ~]$ uname -r
2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686
