Great, now it won't say Shiretoko at the top of my browser anymore and C9 might get fixed since it won't work for anyone. Smiley

PS - Yes, 3.5 is a HUGE improvement over its predecessor. But you need to manually vacuum out your profile with sqlite3 or it takes up to five times longer to load after a while.

C9's broken on Firefox 3.5? That's news to me... I've been using it here since before the betas.

The reply button doesn't work. I have to switch rendering engines into IE.

Reply button doesn't work for me in IE7, I need to hit it twice in order to get the menu and show the Cancel button. If I click it once all I get is this big textblock, and the ADD button.

It does the same thing to me in IE8. Sometimes I have to hit it three times. But in Firefox it is just an inactive object. Hitting it has about as much impact as clicking the grey background.

It started when I moved from 3.1 to 3.5 nightly (or whatever version I was using previously).

Just installed Fx 3.5. Reply button worked the first time for me.

It does seem faster to render pages than IE8.

Fair enough. Let me play with addons then...

It's possible that it's broken if you're using the nightly... C9 has a history of checking to see if you're using "Firefox" to determine if they run certain Javascript or not, so it breaks on nightlies, which call themselves Minefield or Shiretoko (for 3.5) in their user agents.

I haven't seen this behavior in any Firefox branded release (any of the betas or RCs), but I haven't used nightlies since the last site update; they could have easily broken something.

Seems it was a cookie issue oddly enough. I guess when I upgraded Firefox at some stage it kept me logged into the site but yet not logged into the site at the same time (I couldn't sign out, but I could modify my profile). Clearing the cookies from the Privacy panel fixed it though.

Funny, I've had this issue for months. I just assumed it was a C9 problem. Smiley
