GotDotNet Workspaces work better with FireFox

I have been continually getting errors trying to approve users to join my XmlDbClient workspace on GotDotNet, and there is no response to submitting a bug report (hello -- anyone home), so I decided to try with FireFox / Mozilla -- it worked like a charm.  I may just make FireFox my default soon, although I still need to try it on my kid's sites -- but even there I'm willing to bet that FireFox is better since sometimes their games in IE lock up their entire computer.

  • You mean you haven't changed your default browser to Firefox yet?!?!?! Have you got the developer extension for it? It's Fantastic! (Plus the ctrl-T and Ctrl-F buttons).

    T.

  • I once had to switch from IE to Firefox to sign up for a section of Microsoft.com. It was a passport-enabled site (I think the ISV or partners area, if I remember correctly). Very strange.



  • I recently switched to Firefox on my Mac, but unfortunately there is a bit of a nasty keyboard bug which locks the keyboard within the browser - so my daughter is still on Safari atm. I am full time on Firefox for Windows though (except via SharpReader :( ).

  • Get the IEView plugin as well. It will add an "Open this page with IE" menu item to the right-click context menu.

  • Don't hold your breath hoping that FireFox will fix your problems on kids sites -- these are usually related to the Flash player itself. Better luck if you re-install the player.
