Firefox 3 isn't working well for me (in general), so I rolled back to 2.0.0.16. Now Forum doesn't scale as it used to, login/password input fields overlap with messages, if I zoom (with I always to to the max due to crappy vision).

May be snout can serve different css files for each browser version (ie6, ie7, ie8, ff2, ff3 etc.)? I remember from my days of meddling with php it's quite easy...

I love FF3, it follows webstandards very well!
I generally shows that a lot of sites are far from valid on webstandards.

different css files for different browsers is not realy a solution, but a workaround. It does not tackle the problem by the core, and how to handle newer browsers?

Dhau: I cannot find the problem you mention (in FF3.01), the MRC site works/scales fine with me.

Bastiaan: dhau experienced the problem in FF 2.0.0.16.

dhau: on my old laptop I still have #2.0.0.16 and it all seems to work flawlessly. Except of course the administration pages, which are broken since snout implemented some features for FF3

I assume that with MRC2K8 (which might take a while, sorry for that) it'll all be alright and cross-browser. Until that time, I guess you'll have to hang in there, buddy!

Heh heh, I will try to live on, one day at a time...

I only have issues in FF2 if I use CTRL+"+" option (zoom), which I always use, because I can't see very well.

Offtopic: FF3 has following issue on my PC (Vista 64-bit): quite often I have it behave erratically, and even if I close all FF3 windows and run it again, it is still broken. I found out that even if I close all visible FF3 windows, there are still two firefox.exe processes running. If I kill them in taskbar and start FF3, it will work again (for a while). I only use two extensions: foxmarks and adblock+, so it's not like I am a FF abuser or anything...

Dhau: what I meant was that I can zoom quite well in FF2. The only 'problem' here is that the search bar goes through the forum topic, and on the frontpage some text that goes through a news post. Other than that, it works pretty well... Probably you should give Opera a try: just like FF3, it zooms everything - i.e. not just text. In any other case, you could try your favourite latest Linux distro w/ Compiz enabled and zoom in with <SUPER>+mouse_scroll_up

I have no idea as to what your issues with ABP might be. ABP+FF2 @ Windows XP works as mentioned, and ABP+FF3 @ Linux works even better. Probably this is a Firefox + Vista issue, as Vista introduced many problems for standard (XP) software. Either way, Opera or FF3 are still the alternatives of choice here.

Argh, but those 'problems' that I just mentioned were real problems for you... Never mind my previous post.

Here in FF3 the login lineedits are also too wide, overlapping the left side of the main area (this area).
