Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Less than a month

Recommend Product: NO

Firefox 3 doesn't display iWeb site galleries anymore. NO Thumbnails!

Then when looking in their support forums at support.mozilla.com, they blame APPLE!!!

DIRECT QUOTE FROM FORUM

"iWeb generates code that is not compatible with Firefox. Apple hasn't released an update yet, but we hope soon!"

It worked before with Firefox 2.

It works with Safari 3 and 4 as well as IE 5 and 7, Camino, Oprah and other browsers I've tested iWeb galleries on.

To me this is POOR SUPPORT and simply PASSING THE BLAME for POOR CODE and TESTING!

Why if it worked before in Firefox 2 doesn't it work with Firefox 3 anymore? Why does nobody else have any problems or issues including older browsers?

RECOMMEND PASSING ON FIREFOX 3

I agree, and it also does not render the shadows and reflections either, Safari does beautifully. Firefox 2 allows you to see the thumbnails but you don't as I said get shadowing or reflections which makes your web pages crappy. Gone back to 2.0.0.14
