  1. I'm not sure about that, Thomas... You should probably ask that in the Mozillazine forums.
  2. I think it should behave recursively, as you mentioned, but as strange as it may seem, in my site, only the files in the root directory are getting compressed Give it a try and check the result on this site: http://www.desilva.biz/gzip-test.php
  3. From http://www.mozilla.org/press/mozilla-2004-10-01-02.html Preview Release users can update simply by going to the Preferences/Options dialog -> Advanced section and click the Check Now button on the Sfotware Updates section.
  4. Nice Beetle...err... I mean, turtle
  5. Those are great news!! Thumbs Up I especially like that setting that says "Force links that open new windows to open in: a new tab" Firefox already blocks windows that try to pop up when the page loads (and at some non-user-triggered events) but this means a full goodbye to every pop-up window, even those that pop up when we click a link It also takes care of one of the most annoying things in any browser: when you click a link on an external (non-browser) window, it opens up a new browser window. Now you can tell Firefox to open that external link in a new tab or reuse the most recent tab! Excellent news indeed
  6. Sorry Dennis, I don't know of any script that does what you want but I'm moving your message to a more appropriate forum, where it will get better exposure and thus, more probability of getting a usefull answer for you
  7. The GD library is installed on all servers. You can use it on IPB without any problems Alexis, I don't know smartor gallery but usually GD is detected automatically, because it is incorporated into PHP. The gallery software either detects that GD is available or asks you to tell it if it is. Doesn't smartor gallery work that way?
  8. Glad you got it working, alexis! Thumbs Up Welcome to the family!
  9. I have read about Logic 7 and it does seem pretty cool but unfortnately I don't use Mac (yet ), so I can't really speak about it.
  10. Blue, I told you some time ago (I think it was you) that whenever you had a problem, you could post a message here and 2 minutes later you'd find the solution, remember that? I told you...
  11. Most people don't like keyboard shortcuts but many times I prefer them to a graphical/menu driven interface, because they're much quicker. I believe this is one such situation. Using the keyboard shortcut, I only have to press two keys. Using the right-click menu, I'd have to right-click, move the mouse to the print option and click it. It's hard to explain with words, makes it look ridiculously similar But anyway, I find it quicker to do via the keyboard shortcut
  12. Thomas, for the printing one, I have an even better solution: CTRL+P I don't know about the bookmarks but I do agree that clickable (and also dragable - does this word exist? ) bookmark entries would be nice. I don't miss them at all but it would be nice, I guess. About the tabs, that's what made me start using Opera, when Mozilla still didn't have tabs. I automatically fell in love with it Oh, and my bank gives me no problems at all for using Firefox, either. Thumbs Up
  13. lol @ Thomas I'm glad you like it As for the stuff you used to do in IE but can't do as easily in Firefox, may I ask what they were? Perhaps I know of a way to do them as easily with Firefox (Edit: I have the feeling that I have already asked you this... if so, ignore me )
  14. Wow, talk about a change of opinion: Thomas is now helping other people at solving problems with Firefox! Just kidding, Thomas
  15. Jim, I have no clue about what could be the problem but try searching MozillaZine's forums or post a new message if you don't find anything related to that.
  16. Well, I usually prefer to create a loading progress bar, or something that actually displays the page loading progress instead of just having an animated GIF that will simply disappear when everything is loaded. Try searching Google for "html loading progress bar" or variations of those keywords.
  17. Have you tried looking at phpBB's source code?
  18. Invision Board allows this but I belive phpBB doesn't, unless you install a mod for it.
  19. Thomas, I just installed Invision Power Board 2.0 and the problem you mentioned is gone
  20. Hey Jim, how are you? I don't have much time but here's a thought: Create a PHP script to be called by a cron job. The PHP code in it would perform the following tasks: 1 - get the last post ID from the backup database. 2 - get all posts from the main database with an SQL query using "WHERE pid>$last_post_id". 3 - insert those posts into the backup database. I can elaborate on that later, if you want.
  21. I thought about that, too. But hey, maybe someone wants to justify the Firefox banner/button/logo on his/her website
  22. From Slashdot: The site is inaccessible, though. NASA's server has been Slashdotted. LOL ;)
  23. The folks at spreadfirefox.com are giving away over 2.000 Gmail accounts. If you still don't have one, here's the list of requirements to win an account: 1. The site must have a Firefox button, logo or banner linking to the Firefox project either through sfx or directly. 2. The person must not already have Gmail. 3. The site must be publicly viewable with some content. 4. The site must not consist mostly of advertising. 5. The site must not contain any adult content.
  24. Thomas, don't hate Firefox for that, hate Invision Power Board. They're the ones who didn't make this work as it should. If I remember correctly, they use proprietary IE stuff to insert the smileys at the cursor, instead of using standard code, like the one in phpMyAdmin when you're building up a query. Try that and you'll see that it's possible to do that outside of IE Edit: just to show you how easy it would be for them to do that, try this Google search for "javascript text cursor position" and see for yourself how much information is available about this issue.
  25. Yes, it is slower to load than IE is but after being loaded, it's much faster than IE As for sorting the folders, check this out: http://update.mozilla.org/extensions/morei...hp?id=51&vid=54 http://update.mozilla.org/extensions/morei...?id=117&vid=265 They're both for Firefox 0.9.x but I'm hoping there will be a version for 1.0 soon
