Smashing Pumpkin Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 Anyone else keep being told they need to use the classic version and even then the left hand sidebar with folders is extra long n ****ed up?

Piggy Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 My bar is ok, but I'm forced to use the classic version too. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/643938-wl-hotmail-full-in-firefox-3/#findComment-589491461 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs_Angel_D Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 I hear you can use the IE page extension to view it in ff3 Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/643938-wl-hotmail-full-in-firefox-3/#findComment-589491465 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smashing Pumpkin Posted June 18, 2008 Author Share Posted June 18, 2008 Scrolling is also uber jaggedy and pages sort of break up when I scroll. I'm going back to FIrefox 2, sorry Mozilla!

+chorpeac MVC Posted June 18, 2008 MVC Share Posted June 18, 2008 Yeah I had the old version, but the scrolling was bad for me in FF2 as well, so no difference there, just in the old style... :\ Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/643938-wl-hotmail-full-in-firefox-3/#findComment-589491523 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smashing Pumpkin Posted June 18, 2008 Author Share Posted June 18, 2008 Scrolling was in myspace actually, FF2 just wouldn't work at all just kept crashing so it's back to FF3 grrr. I got IE tab add on but it won't run on FF3 apparently. Friggin' garrrr, things never just work for me and I always get the blame in the house cos I'm the computer person!! Rich.

alxz.310 Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 Scrolling is also uber jaggedy and pages sort of break up when I scroll.I'm going back to FIrefox 2, sorry Mozilla! The scrolling issue annoys the hell out of me! Any site with a fixed background somewhere will have horrible scrolling like you said. Funny thing is, the scrolling issue didnt exist until beta 5 ... beta 4 works just fine and from what I heard the problem wont we solved until firefox 3.1 or something Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/643938-wl-hotmail-full-in-firefox-3/#findComment-589491541 Share on other sites More sharing options...

mundox Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 WL full version worked fine in FF2, I hope they fix this fast, I hate that classic mode. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/643938-wl-hotmail-full-in-firefox-3/#findComment-589493009 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smashing Pumpkin Posted June 18, 2008 Author Share Posted June 18, 2008 I'm pretty sure it is Fire fox 3 on fixed background webpages that knackers up the scrolling and the Hotmail is probably as others have said MS browser sniffing. I have followed someones advice on here n gone onto Windows Live Mail program, it's well awesome!

Julius Caro Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 I do not have a problem with scrolling. Maybe something other than Firefox is causing it? I've experienced firefox scrolling issues on osx, linux and windows, although they are rare in osx/windows and more common (as always has been) on linux. But I would discard the "external factor" here Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/643938-wl-hotmail-full-in-firefox-3/#findComment-589493071 Share on other sites More sharing options...

ObiWanToby Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 Yeah I had the old version, but the scrolling was bad for me in FF2 as well, so no difference there, just in the old style... :\ Yeah, something is wrong with Firefox, scrolling just isn't as smooth as IE. After using firefox for a week, opening up IE makes it feel like IE is fast....
