| Ron 2004-04-26 09:04:24 | Firefox is a different branch of development from Mozilla's browser, and has different features. It can be detected by the value of the string window.navigator.vendor.  |
| ImDead 2004-04-26 16:20:04 | I agree, we need firefox support, its a much better browser than mozilla! |
| Stephen Brooks 2004-05-19 14:04:11 | OK, sorry about the delay, but I've added it. |
| Stephen Brooks 2004-07-13 13:57:01 | At least, I _thought_ I'd added it. Can someone using FireFox go to this page: http://stephenbrooks.org/browserwars/?modal=idtest ...and report what they see? That page gives a debug of the browser detection process. |

| james 2004-07-15 13:47:03 | IP address(es): it lists it properly.

| james 2004-07-15 13:54:21 | quote: Actually your UA string is wrong as you said you are using 0.9.2 , but yet the UA says Firefox/0.8 The main cause of the bug is because of your installing a 0.9.x Release over 0.8 release when you should have done a clean install. It's recommended to do a clean install, especially if you ever want to file a bug report. |
| Book'em Dano 2004-07-15 18:19:13 | James, your absolutely correct. It is highly recommended and I didn't do it, but then again I don't typically file bug reports. I uninstalled my old version of Firefox and reinstalled 0.9.2. It now reports it correctly. Now . . . when do we get that Firefox icon. |
| james 2004-07-16 18:11:53 | quote: Hehe yeah i'm always correct.. >_> I always do a clean install, as in never install on top of another build of Firefox. Common sense! What do you mean about the Firefox icon? Hey you guys want a nice spellchecker for Firefox? Read instructions and make sure you select the dictionary you installed for it to spellcheck(a old workaround). http://www.exchangecode.com/spellbound/ |
| james 2004-07-16 23:57:46 | Oh wait you mean the firefox icon. Wouldn't it be better to keep Mozilla "Seamonky" suite and the sleek Mozilla Firefox together in order to better able to pounce IE. |
| Mr Cookie 2004-07-21 07:26:10 | We need an Icon! |
| Stephen Brooks 2004-08-09 04:14:27 | Sorry - obviously the word "Mozilla" is still overriding the word "Firefox" in my UA identification. Odd because I thought I'd put "Mozilla" at bottom priority as it tends to be part of so many other things. Will look into it. |
| james 2004-09-12 01:24:41 | Well I see there is a Firefox icon now. |
