Hey all,

I've started coming here a little more often and while I like the new board software, it has some peculiarities. I'm using Firefox 12.0.

I've noticed that it usually takes SEVERAL clicks on a button to make it actually execute its function.

I'm also sometimes getting the following when I click a thread title to go into the thread:

Is this happening to others??

I'm on FF 12 and have no issues .. well I have issues, but not related to FF.

From a Mozilla board:

  • Content Encoding Error - If you get the error message, Content Encoding Error or The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because it uses an invalid or unsupported form of compression, use these steps to diagnose and fix them:
    1. Check the settings of any Internet security applications you use (including firewalls, anti-virus or anti-spyware programs, and privacy protection programs). You should try to remove any permissions those applications have for Firefox, and then add them again. For program-specific instructions for a number of applications, see Firewalls.
    2. Follow the Standard troubleshooting steps.
 
Also, after some more searching, it seems that errors in the FF cache may be causing a problem as well. Try clearing the cache: Tools --> Options --> Advanced --> Network, Clear Now button.
 
Also using FF 12, no problems down here.
 
FF 12 sucks big time!

Memory grows constantly -- open Task Manager and watch what it does. I shut it down this morning, and restarted it -- 239 million page faults in about 10 hours! WTF! It's also using 400mb of memory after 10 hours.

IE works much better. I'm about to toss FF, cause they screwed it up big time...
 
clear cache as said before,i had the same problem some days ago and after clearing cache it was good to go.
 
I can't lay all the blame on FF (although the current incarnation sucks IMHO).

This board software sucks just as much. Sorts don't work right, disappearing cursors in the post box, etc. I know Danno moved to it for a reason, but after about 3 months now, I still liked VB better.
 
I stopped with FF11, still trying to decide which is better for Linux FF or Chrome
 
All I am noticing is that the boards are only about 1/2 as fast as normal..... noticed that yesterday and today..... other sites are moving along like normal.
