Firefox having problems with more and more websites lately?

When i first started using firefox months ago, i rarely had to click on "View this page in IE' when the page didnt render properly...

Now however, it seems like i'm doing in 3-4 times a day..... Either things don't fully load, or pages don't look correct, or certain features don't work...

Anyone else noticing this?
 
can u name some sites with symptoms, that don't work? could be an extension screwing things up.
 
ya i'm seeing quadruple too. damn these non ie sites. i try to mail the site when i find something not working.
if enough people do it, probably they will do something.

the second link took forever to load in IE, in firefox it was instantaneous.
 
I tried both links in Safari (it is also standard compliant like FF), and the first one was fine, but I also get the four tabs. I really hate it when people don't test things in browsers other than IE, esp when some people can't use IE (like mac users - well, there is IE5.23, but it sucks).
 
Gmail seems to have started using ActiveX now. Firefox kept crashing every time I tried to login in and it wasn't until I visited with IE and it started whining about my not having ActiveX enabled that I realized it. If I knew where to write I'd be happy to send a nasty letter about that one.
 
enable pop, and use thunderbird 😉 that'll teach em.

Edit:
And both sites work in opera, I too have the quadruple menu, but it dissapears once I scroll down. So I dont know what to think of it, looks like a bug more than a faulty coding.

I have Gmail and access it using Safari on Mac OS X. There's absolutely no ActiveX support on Safari and I have no problems...
 
Not a FF problem though. If you look @ their source code, all of those errors are from non-DOM/CSS compliant coding.

Done and done 😉 If it wasn't for that I might have stopped using gmail... until reading the rest of this thread, duh 😕

That makes sense (as per Nothinman's observation), I thought it was a bit odd. Must have been something else that I did wrong with firefox. Regardless, firefox bombed when I visited gmail 😛
