Using Mozilla Firefox browser with this forum

[Stanley Stunodd]

Using Mozilla Firefox browser with this forum doesn't allow you to PASTE, use the links button and other such advantages.

I've been trying to figuire out how to make these corrections but, perhaps one of you folks might figuire it out?

NO no !
All of the FUNCTION buttons which are run via JAVASCRIPT need some adjustment.

ummah.com is using Midas, the Mozilla rich text editing component, and using the cut/copy/paste buttons requires a few changes to user.js

hmm is there no setting in Mozilla to play around with JS?

not too sure ive not really MEssed about with Mozilla and JS not really tried that

i don't know what you are talking about Stan...i am using Firefox and there is no problem at all...maybe you don't have Javascript enabled or something

Perhaps you do not use all the functions I do when editing a post?
Anyway, I eventually figuired it all out by asking for help on their forum.

<!--StartFragment --> WYSIWYG forum-based editor says I need to edit Mozilla config file ?
Many of the features of this forum I frequent will not work and I receive a pop-up box that says EDIT MOZILLA CONFIG FILE in order to use this function.

Here's the link you need, ummah.com is using Midas, the Mozilla rich text editing component, and using the cut/copy/paste buttons requires a few changes to user.js. As GameController suggested, you just create the files instead.

<!--StartFragment --> Sorry, where it says:

user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.sites", "http://www.mozilla.org");

in that document (and now in your user.js file), you need to change that to:

user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.sites", "http://www.ummah.com");

or it won't work. My bad, should have said that the first time.

<!--StartFragment --> OK ! I figuired it out !

AND THEN !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had to copy&paste the information into the pref.js file as well.

i posted before on how firefox and mozilla and opera werent seeing the pages here correctly and the cut and paste function was kinda screwy

though i liked opera, it still had bugs

That's amazing since I have never faced such a problem with Firefox 1.0. Even now, I'm using the editor and java-script and quick-link functions and am browsing smoothly as like flying within a cloudless sky. I'm also using Windows XP's Service Pack 2; have you downloaded that yet? If you haven't, then do so quickly. ;)
