I downloaded Firefox 2.0 and have since had major problems with typing and viewing text. Words are smushed together, and when I type words disappear. It's super weird and it makes Firefox unusable.

Text problems - dabdidea
I am getting regular blocking of typing in firefox. I will be browsing away when suddenly I can't type anything in the browser- address bar, form fields, anywhere.The workaround I'm using is to open a word processor, type in there so my mac remembers what to do (there's a slight delay when I start to type as if its rethinking the whole I'm not typing thing). Once I can type again in there I can go back into firefox and type away.
Weird!
And it sucks!

I was having a similar problem typing text into forms. I found that adjusting and customizing the "montotype" setting in the "advanced" text preferences fixed it for me... at least for now.Monday, February 05 2007 @ 04:38 PM PST

The keyboard doesn't work right, neither does the tab.Sometimes cannot select the field to type into???
I tried with the same extensions as 1.5.0.1
and with no extensions.
I prefer to use TMN, Tor, FoxyProxy but not sure if
they're compatible with FF v2.
