    Links Don't Work

     
    The "Advanced Search" and "Quick Links" don't work for me with FF 11 and IE9
    Imagine a world where dogs took bad owners to the pound...

    Great but that doesn't help the forum issue

    great... I just upgraded to FF11 not too long ago... now there's another one, to screw up my addons and cause more problems with other sites until they catch up.

    Well, I figured that the new Firefox may not have the same problem.

    I can tell you how to edit your add-ons so that they work with the new build!

    FF is pushing updates like mad-men. Drives me nuts but so far all my add-ons have worked. Most sites work as well, we just have a script running that doesn't wanna play nice.

    They're not critically needed Addons, just convenience ones, Invisible Hand, Lazarus form Recovery and FireFTP.

    I've also seen previews of FF12, and they're becoming more like Chrome with the Frequent used site tiles on main page, which I don't like on Chrome really, I just like to use the Bookmarks Bar up top, and my iGoogle Home page with widgets.

    I wish they could add a 2nd line to the Bookmarks bar though, much like adding a 2nd line to the Windows Quick Launch bar.



    But I agree with Rich, FF has been doing this mainly to compete with Chrome, since each incremental update with Chrome is more or less a new "version", FF has followed suit and doing sort of the same thing.

    So I assume if Chrome Decided to Jump off a tall building, FF would do the same?

    Its not really sound logic following the competitor all the time. IMO anyways.

    Oh yeah love having a 2nd line of bookmarks, I was mad when my old addon stopped working but I now use this add-on wrong link let me find the right one
    It can slow your load time down a bit but that's not a big deal for me. Wish FF would enable the option by default that way I could skip the need but till then you might want to try it out.

    I guess I had the right link https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fir...s-toolbarplus/

    I see comments about ads but I haven't seen any and I've been using it for awhile now.

    Looks like stable branch FF releases are catching up. Currently using Mozilla Nightly 15.0a1 here.

    Not sure what version Chrome is up to, but I am currently using Chromium 20.0.x.

    Invisible hand looks interesting and I think I was the one who recommend Lazarus form Recovery. I have to install that one again. It's nice to be able to recover what you wrote. It's happened to me before where I lost everything.

    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fir...marks-toolbar/ <-- Edit, I see Rich beat me to it. HAHA!

    The links seem to be working for me using Firefox 12. I guess it's been fixed?

    Nice, works much better now, still plenty of screen space for the actual web page, set if for 2 rows, but may set for 3, since It scrolls to a 3rd row with 2 more links, despite set for 2 rows.
