diffrent problems with IE than Firefox

geekytj121 · 02-21-2007, 04:04 PM

I know, its kind of lame that i am addicted to myspace, but it is a very good way to keep in contact with my friends. My problems are, I use Firefox mostly, but some things just don't seem to work well sometimes. Sometimes its something like locking up while I'm logging in, and i can never "paste" into the blog field.

But when using IE, my top friends list looks very strange, Images overlapping, names switched, its kind of frusterating.

Any input is greatly appreciated..

by the way, I'm using XP Pro with 1024-768 resolution

Hi geekytj121,
I suggest you to try the Opera....I think i will work for. I do agree the fact that the Firefox is the best option but if you are not doing well with...U can go for opera.

Hi,
Im jesserey, newbie in a Google community.. would like to share my ideas if you are agree or not.

Firerfox is very fastest way to surf the web. It has a lot of add-on functions. I guess there is no more problem about firefox if you install it completely while IE is complete but it is getting slow to surf the web and more spamming.

Choose the best one for your comfortable. as long as you enjoy..

Thank you very much for your time.

Best Regards

Maybe it's the heavy flash,JS and GIFs in Myspace that cause the problem?

Seems the webpage writer in that case didn't test between browsers... Is it just that one page? Or myspace in general? (Can't say I'm a myspace user, myself, so I haven't a hint, but I know on the pages I write, I try to set them up so's they don't cause that sort of problem across browsers...)

IE suck.
Firefox is still the best browser to me

Maybe you add-ons are not installed. For example the macromedia flash player, javaruntime environment, etc. But if you install those useful addons on your firefox, I'm sure you won't be having any problems.
