Hi Jeremy, I use the Utilu Mozilla Firefox Collection v1.1.0.4. That contains Firefox versions from v2.0 to v30 Nightly that can be installed and used besides your standard Firefox.
Up till now I had only v3.6 and v16 installed. Now I installed v20 and up. I tested with v24, v25, v26, v27, v28beta1, v29 Aurora and v30 Nightly. In ALL cases I could drag & drop favicon.ico from https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/blob/master/editions/tw5.com/tiddlers/images/favicon.ico?raw=true to Firefox and get a "normal" icon. So it has to do with my standard Firefox browser. Since I did start my standard browser with all add-ons disabled and could not get a "normal" icon by drag & drop of favicon.ico, there must be "Something rotten in the state of Denmark" so to speak. Something wrong with the profile or so. So you don't need to install a Windows 7 virtual machine; you can spend your time better ;) Cheers, Ton On Tuesday, February 11, 2014 8:47:37 AM UTC+1, Ton Gerner wrote: > > Hi Jeremy, > > Even with all add-ons disabled it does not work with FF v27. > It does work with FF v16 (the latest version that worked with TiddlySnip). > > On Monday, February 10, 2014 11:18:11 PM UTC+1, Jeremy Ruston wrote: >> >> I can't duplicate the problem with Firefox 27 on Windows 8; dragging a >> favicon.ico from Windows Explorer to tiddlywiki.com/empty.html works >> fine.
