Re: FireFox (the bad side)

mazen, firefox is open source, you could do anything you want with the source, and i'm pretty sure you could find an extension that solves this problem.

and btw, why didn't you post this in the other firefox topic ?

Never had this problem.
It usually opens in the same window, unless you specify "open in a new windows" or "open in a new tab" in both cases it does not ovewrite anything, but opens in a blank window/tab.
Maybe it's a bug in your version and you should update?

It is an active x problem +  I dunno if you guys know but hotmail discriminates against opera, and if a person is using an opera browser then it sends the wrong/corrupt data.

Re: FireFox (the bad side)

I am pretty sure that you all updated FireFox to version 1.04. Anyhow, I noticed a little problem. Instead of showing the ASCII codes (é, ç, ü,...) "" is being shown instead.

Did anyone else notice that?
