Title: Strange browser freezes here?
Post by: Peter Duggan on March 29, 2004, 12:42:52 PM
Dunno if it's just me or what, but this thread has just locked up Mozilla Firefox several times in a row:

But I can view it in IE...

Although I was having a problem earllier with external links from threads here locking up IE! :-\

Suppose it could be my computer (restored IE from a backup and rebooted it from a cold start this afternoon just in case), but wondering whether anyone else has had *any* similar problems here?

This is a known problem in Firefox/Mozilla. Search the forum here, there are 100 topics about it.

Yeah it has already been discussed it is a bug in Firefox/Mozilla. It was fixed in the latest cvs copy. So either update to the latest CVS copies... or wait for 0.9(Firefox)... can't remember what version Mozilla is at. :P

Helpful as always, Daniel! ;)

So perhaps I'd should have searched for that in the first place, but experiencing SMF problems in IE as well today rather clouded my thinking there...

And a search for 'Mozilla Firefox' is currently bringing up 21 results for me with a solitary topic in English that looks immediately relevant:

Well, it only happens with code segments.. I took it out, but then had people say they wanted it back.
