Firefox - help me confirm something

    Does pigsback.com load incorrectly for anyone out there - especially members.

    I couldn't confim using my points yesterday as when it loaded my address at confirmation the postcode was
    unlike IE which read it corrctly, and when I clicked the confim button nothing happened.

    The main page is acceptable but the left-right columns don't have the full list of links (and don't 'close' at the bottom like IE)

    If I goto Shortcuts>Timeout>Competitions I get an empty page with about 1 graphic on it.

    Argh! Just want to know it's not me with a mixture of adblock, proxies and so on.

    Firefox still has some bugs in it and can occasionally load pages incorrectly. Don't worry about it they'll probably fix it in the next update.

    True but is it not the case that some sites are simply not fully compatible with FF - I don't think this is a bug it's simply an IE-friendly site?

    I had problems when I went to spend my piggypoints, the postcode drop down menu wouldn't work with firefox....worked fine in IE though

    Yes that’s a much more likely explanation; Firefox actually follows standards even if some web developers don’t.

    Have same problem with the Meteor website in FF......cant send the free txt messages in FF but can in IE......this is the problem with the web developer being an IE head and not bothering putting in support for other browsers!!! the more that people use FF the sooner this will change!! and for the better


    IE = VIRUS
