Gmail/Firefox screws up "attach file"

[13Gigatons]

In Gmail if you clicked attach file it would give you that browse button and white field. I could drag and drop the file to the browse button.

Suddenly I'm not able to do this anymore. It pops up the open dialog box.

This is either a Firefox 3.0.7 thing or Gmail made changes.

Changes were made to the file uploader recently (multiple file selections + status bar I think)

They must have done that today. Just tested now, and it wasn't like that yesterday.

Yeah, forgot about that. Did same with the themes. Must spread across their servers.

What's even worse is that you can't attach a Google docs to your email. You have to save it first as a pdf or text file, then attach it.

This new way sucks.

You should email them and request cancellation of a full refund of the amount you paid.

Google updates are very weird when it comes to consistency, I suspect they do their tiering based on IP addresses to roll out to areas at a time.

If it was account based or based on what server your account was on, then why is it at work I get my google chat window in igoogle, but at home and on my laptop I do not. At work we are proxyed through St. Louis Missouri, and even though I live in Colorado.
