Firefox problem + IT = Problem - Flumper Barflusterbutt - 08-03-2006

Only on IT, when I use firefox, if I hit an apostrophe, then it kicks me down to a lower tool bar that is some kind of search feature.

Like, if I type, "I know you (apostrophe) ll go far"......... as soon as I hit the apostrophe, I am in a search box at the bottom of Firefox.

Ctrl+f does the same thing. Shouldn't happen when you're typing in the text reply box, but will when you click anywhere else on the page and then hit " ' " it will.


Useful fuckin' tool that one is.

Firefox updated. Log-off, close your browser and try again. Or restart. Somehow firefox isn't reading the VBulletin code correctly with respect to text boxes.


Firefox problem + IT = Problem - WoolyGoat - 08-03-2006

turn on "begin finding when you begin typing"

Log off? That's funny.

Wait a second, it worked that time and I didn't log off or close any browsers. But I'm quoting. Could that be the difference? Weird.

That problem has happened randomly to me, too. I close FF and start it up again and it's usually gone. I hate it and curse it to hell.


Firefox problem + IT = Problem - leeman - 08-04-2006

I use the LATEST updated FF with THE LATES updated Java console ...

NO PROBLEM.

Buy a new computer or start stamp collecting.

naaa appens sometimes when FF goes nuts he starts doing a plain text search instead of letting you type.

1. be sure that you have correctly clicked in the text box !
2. quit firefox (kill process if you want to be sure)
3. uncheck the "begin finding text as you type" in tools/options/advanced
