Spread the word! Firefox.

And finaly it is released..:) Go download it, or go Opera...:)

http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/

Yes!

And then you die...

Actually it's fairly simple..

Code:

---

if (User.Action == "DownloadFireFox")
{
 User.ReceiveHealth(1000);
}
else
{
 User.LoseHealth(1000);
}

---

VB Code:

For Each Download In User.Downloads
    If Download.IsBrowser Then
        If Download.Browser.Firefox2 Then
            User.Satisfaction.Sexual.Raise
        ElseIf Download.Browser.IE7 Then
            User.Mood.Anger.Raise
        ElseIf Download.Browser.Opera9 Then
            User.Mood.Happy.Raise
        Else
            User.Mood.Confused.Raise
        End If
    ElseIf Not User.HasBrowser Then
        User.Requirements.Browser = True
    Else
        Select Case User.Browser
            Case browserFirefox
                User.Satisfaction.Increase
            Case browserIE
                User.Mood.Anger.Increase
                User.Requirements.BetterBrowser.Raise
            Case browserOpera
                User.Mood.Happy.Increase
            Case Else
                User.Requirements.BetterBrowser.Raise
         End Select
    End If
Next Download

I wouldn't call this simple, even though this is a simplified code for all those non-programmers of these forums.

What if they install it from the CD?

You mean you can still browse the web??

Brilliant!

I was using Firefox in the office. Evil admin guys uninstalled it. Now I am using IE 7.0

I pity your petty admins...

IE7 suffers from the same critical security leak that created an uproar in IE6...

Pretty sad if you ask me...

Oh. Where is this informtion posted? Maybe I can knock some sense into them yet.

Another thing I noticed is that one of the (intranet) sites I visit has a javascript menu which does not work in IE 7.0 but used to work on IE 6.0 :wave:

IE7 is built to be best with Vista... hence, a lot of the features you're used to don't exist anymore because Vista is locking everything out... Let me try and find that page for you...

Found a couple, actually.

I am not certain if these are convincing enough for the Evil Admin Group. Let me send them over and see what happens.

One thing I'm havign trouble with Fx2 is the Alt+S I'm used to using to submit replies... now it opens the History menu instead... Anyone know how to get around that?

Alt+X doesn't work either.

I suppose Tab>Enter would work... Tab>Space should do it too...

I have always used it, so it should work. But they probably have just changed the short cuts around. Like Opera has Esc for their "HTML" shortcuts. Hate that..:) But they have a point though. Since Alt'ing is supposed to be File menu stuff.

Why is it that when one Firefox window freezes, all of them do?

Why does firefox often just sit there gobbling up RAM?

It is Alt+Shift+Accesskey now you sillies. Alt conflicted with menus.

Alt+Shift+S posts.

1) Because it is a single process.

2) Fastback cache. And memory leaks. :)

It must not be a very common issue then, for I seem to be the only one who's ever faced it. The needs of the many outweight the needs of the one, so small sacrifice.

too bad this thread wasnt in a technical forum then as I would have given you 15 reps for your conversion :afrog:

you do have the power to move these threads to the technical forum, after all they are regarding recent software releases :D

He didn't say he would use it..:) PS: Did you see the two critical errors in IE7 I posted..;)

OOoooooo, touchy! http://www.vbforums.com/

Secunia is about as useful as nipples on an armor.

You are just jalous because you are about to move to a browser that might steal your money and your wig right out of the box.

I forgot I had this in my sig.

What ever happened to NoteMe?

He's become a chaste hermit.

He became to be worthy of his avatar.

I met up with him and ate him. He is now in my freezer; labelled puppet ou soflourre.
