Mozilla

All off topic discussions go here. Everything from the funny thing your cat did to your favorite tv shows. Non-programming computer questions are ok too.

Yerm... just downloaded Mozilla 1.1 due to my fear of IE's recent spate of massive security hole exploits surfacing. So, anyway, I'm loving the 'zilla, but there are a few things that are a bit wonky.

1) When I view the www.agigames.com/chat new text appears at the top. Anyone know how I can cause new text to appear at the bottom as it does with any other browser?

B) How the heck do I block pop-up ads? I'm pretty sure this is supposed to a feature of 'zilla.

thx

thanks

Well, I get the chat in reverse too. The chat actually uses an html tag that tells IE to print stuff in reverse.. I think Mozilla ignores it like it ignores blink tags.

For popups, go to edit/preferences/advanced/scripts and plugins.

Leave javascript on cause it's useful for some stuff. Deselect "open unrequested windows". This gets rid of *most* pop-ups. People are finding ways around this though.

Make sure you try out the tab bar. (navigator/tabbed browsing). You can open new links with the middle mouse button and have them all loadin the background. (great for multiple slashdot stories) It's much faster than having to open a new mozilla window up too.

Thanks. I figured out how to kill pop-ups on my own. I guess I'll just have to deal with upside-down php chat, though.
