Re: Cookie handling: Who wants this crap proprietary cookie stuff??
Care to enumerate your problems? psmith wrote: Mozilla cookie handling is too restrictive and annoying and would be much better if it were operating the standard way that Netscape 4 and Internet Explorer do. Anyone who has used Cookie Pal for example knows how much smarter it can handle cookies. I am seriously considering permanently getting away from Mozilla and not looking back because of this problem. I would like to hear from others on what they think about this feature. Of course, if AOL has anything to say about it, which quite possibly they do, we won't see a change.

Re: How's 1.0 look?
Am I the only one who doesn't want to touch print preview with a ten foot pole? On my win32 nightly, the print preview is shown with some weird scrollbars and a black border on the top, bottom, and left, but not right side, which looks weird. Also, I'm not sure how you're supposed to exit the print preview, but hitting back crashes mozilla. dman84 wrote: David Gerard wrote: On track? I know what the Bugzilla dependency tree looks like, I want to know how it feels to you guys. feels like a few more milestones, about 3-4, maybe 5: to give a general overview from my perspective: fallouts from patches has created a Mozilla build that looks like this: lots of JS errors on the console in nightlies.. for outliner, Mail/news, bookmarks, and others are probably creating some problems with stuff below. visually, it needs a lot of work, for example: the ones that stick out for me: sidebar in mail/news content is horked, a scrollbar exists on startup in folder pane, strange offscreen problems with dialogs, missing respin icon in classic using tabs, security lock is not correct using tabs, dynamic theme switching horks much of the XUL for dialogs, mail/news and other windows until restart.. (i say bring back restart change) and compose message: dropdown box for sender has descriptions like: Newsgr... and Followu... composer: getting stuff working better and css support started to come in. performance in general: getting a lot better. plugins: people reporting problems with 0.9.7. Address book, still needs bugs fixed, and testing after migration with Outliner. Bookmarks: cant figure out how to sort/insert properly, or not delete when copying/moving to IE folder.. seems seperator insertion doesn't know the correct index for insertion, it appears to not be the same place you are trying to visually insert at. Refresh (JS error) file bookmark problem exist. print preview: good. printing: getting better, dont know how, but its got a few problems still. context dialogs, dont all work correctly with copy/paste in mail/news. Save page as: works great, still backgrounds and some css files not being saved from subfolders. API's are coming around.. download manager still needs to land. LDAP still needs to get in.. Simple Mapi should be in now. Page Rendering: really good.. still a few issues.. Importing profiles are getting better at importing. Prefs stick finally, which is good.. and many of the UI prefs are finally in, not to mention scrollbar works. Mozilla crashes a lot more.. then say the 0.9.4 - 0.9.6 milestones. --- All because of trying add as many patches as they can now before 0.9.8 lands, it looks like all or nothing.. but I think we will not get to 1.0 nearly as fast as 2 milestones. Not cleaning fallout problems as fast shouldn't be overlooked. There is alot of 0.9.8 targets that will probably not make it. -dman84
Re: Print preview issues
Yes, the problem is that hitting it crashes mozilla (at least on my system).

Re: Button theme bug? newbie needs help.
I've seen this. It seems to happen if you had a really old version of mozilla and you just installed a new copy. Gazza wrote: Hi, I'm completey new to Mozilla, so I'm not sure what to do next. When I installed 0.9.6 last night and opened it, the back/forward/reload and stop buttons were from the modern theme, yet everything else was from the classic theme. I've since changed the themes a few times, and it's all sorted. Just seemed to be the first time it opened. I've had a brief look on the known bugs page, and couldn't see anything. If anyone could tell me what I should do next, that'd be really helpful. Thanks Gazza -- http://www.garyjones.co.uk The two rules of success are: 1. Never tell them everything you know.
Re: Plugins?
If you have JRE installed at all in your system, you can make a file called user.js in the same directory as your prefs.js, and add this line to it: user_pref(plugin.do_JRE_Plugin_Scan,true); Mozilla will scan for a plugin, so you don't have to re-copy the plugin files every time you do a new install. Mike Koenecke wrote: There are two things that I *still* have to use the hated IE for: (1) Accessing certain secure sites, like MBNA's, which do not accept Mozilla for some reason, and (2) Accessing sites which require certain plugins. I know that (1) is (e.g.) MBNA's problem, but (2) is really starting to bug me. Yeah, I know being able to view movie trailers and suchlike is fluff, but I'd like to do it once in a while. Is there anywhere which gives instructions on how to install plugins for Mozilla? Particularly, I find the Java implementation spotty (I've installed it three times, and still certain sites ask to install the Java plugin), and have no idea how to get QuickTime to work in Mozilla.

Re: Java Plugin wont install on Mozilla 0.9.5 / Windows 2000.
I have been able to work around the plugin copying procedure by adding this to my user.js file: user_pref(plugin.do_JRE_Plugin_Scan,true); you can create a user.js file in the same directory as your bookmarks and prefs.js. It is a plain text file. Matt Hyne wrote: I have been trying to get the Java plugin to install in Mozilla 0.9.5 / Windows 2000 - but no luck. If I go to a site that requires Java it asks me to click on the Icon to install the plugin - I do this and it downloads and installs the plugin into windows - tells me that it is installing it in Mozilla but I just get asked to download the plugin again when I try to access the site again. Is this a known issue - can I install it manually ?? Matt
