Re: Sigh. (Re: Re: Re: OT: Mozilla .9.9 (Linux))

How about: The site is on my machine which is connected to the internet via a dial-up (dhcp) connection. As I dont have it hosted, it makes posting a link to it seem a little silly IMO.

My question could probably better be rephrased as, "Is there any widely known differences between the two versions of Mozilla that I may be unaware of?" or "Are there any pitfalls I should avoid when generating HTML for Mozilla 0.9.9 ?"

Having said that my HTML is generated with CGI.pm in a CGI::Application framework. I also thought posting 18kb of HTML in a node pretty excessive..

My intent wasnt to cause lots of rolling of the eyes, just ask (what I thought was) a faily simple question at a time when there wasnt too much CB activity (nor many ppl active). While I realise I am off topic here, I figured there would be some monks here using a similar combination of applications as I am, and thought this may not be unreasonable.

The feedback received thus far suggests otherwise, and so I appologise for my ignorance.

Having said that my HTML is generated with CGI.pm in a CGI::Application framework. You could of course post the piece of code that generates the tables. You could narrow it down to the essential bits, and then post it. I'm quite sure that would be a lot less than 18 kB. Not only would that have made it possible for us to find the bug and help you, it would also have made your post on-topic. Besides, 18 kB is reasonable for publishing on your scratch pad. Is there any widely known differences between the two versions of Mozilla that I may be unaware of? Apart from built-in true type font support? Not that I know of. Are there any pitfalls I should avoid when generating HTML for Mozilla 0.9.9 ? You could do a search query on bugzilla to find out. That's the home of all (and there are many!) bugs that are reported for Mozilla. I figured there would be some monks here using a similar combination of applications as I am, and thought this may not be unreasonable. I use Mozilla and have recently upgraded to 0.9.9. At first, I encountered a bug regarding forms, but it was not reproducable. I'd be happy to help, but that requires that you give the information needed. We cannot guess the structure of your table, we cannot guess the nature of the bug (does Mozilla segfault? does it display a message?)
