Problems with Firefox on Cakewalk forums
Sorry if this has been discussed before, but I did a search and couldn't find anything.... When I use Firefox (latest version) in these forums, most of the posting functionality does not work: - The "Enter" key will not start a new line, I have to type the "br" command to do that. - Previews of my post will not appear. - Quoting another post does not work. - The menu bar across the top of the message box does not appear (font type, size, bold, formatting, etc.) - And this " " appears at the beginning of all new posts in the message box. - Along with several other features Everything works perfectly with Internet Explorer, but dammit I use Firefox!!! Any suggestions of what I can try or where I can stick Firefox?

or if you don't want to do the MS thing, use Opera or Google Chrome. I have the the forum home set as my homepage on Opera so it's extra handy. I still use FF for most things because of No Script to protect privacy, but Opera is very good otherwise. Opera and Chrome are neck and neck for the speed title too. http://www.opera.com/

Thanks guys, I've tried Chrome, but I think I'll give Opera a try and see how I like that. But one of my "must have" plugins is RoboForm, any browser that can't use that plugin I won't use. Unless Opera has something equivalent. I do like the idea of having a faster browser though.

Okay, so far I'm liking Opera - and it will work with my beloved Roboform. And better still it works well with this forum. I think we found a keeper. I've been a FF user for so long, I think I'll miss it a little bit, but if it won't work well with Cakewalk forums then screw it!

If Roboform is auto-form population with your info, yes it does. Check the preferences under "Forms".

This could be the same argument for lack of varispeed in SONAR vs. <insert other DAW name here>, roight?

Sorry if this has been discussed before, but I did a search and couldn't find anything....
It's only been mentioned about 12,973 times (oh yeah, the "search" function doesn't work well either here  ). BTW - Where are you in the Great NorthWest? We may have to warn you about Pedro...
Time for all of you to head over to Beyond My DAW!

Okay, I'll revise that: I did a search but couldn't find anything recent or relevant on the first page of the search. I could have dug deeper I suppose, but it seemed quicker just to ask. I DID apologize for asking about something that I'm certain has been discussed before. No need to get snippy. I live in Ellensburg WA, which if you look on a map of Washington, it's almost in the exact center of the state, about 110 miles east of Seattle.

FYI Leee: This LINK was the fourth item found with: site:forum.cakewalk.com firefox problems
The search function of this forum sucks. Just thought I'd let you know for future reference.

Thanks bapu, that was indeed a helpful link. It seems this problem has been going on for awhile.
I haven't been around in this forum (regularly) for a few years now, and I guess the last time I was a regular user here I wasn't having any problems.

Never any snippiness from me - but silliness is practically guaranteed.  (And you're probably safe from Pedro he's down in Vancouver.  )

Thanks for bringing this up Leee My browser of choice is Firefox and up until recently I'd been using v3.6.28 as that was the only version that was still being maintained that worked with the forum. They stopped maintaining that so I upgraded to the newest version of FF and was just using IE9 to browse here. Having seen 'IETab' mentioned here I've just installed that in FF so I'm back (virtually) to using a single browser. This was the version I installed (there seem to be a few different ones) and it's the one that works best here. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ie-tab-2-ff-36/

Hey Jonbouy, thanks for that link, I installed it on Firefox and it works great.
So I guess I'll stick with FF and just use this IE plugin. Cool!
