question about mozilla

[gopunk]

is there any way to get mozilla to freaking wrap text in text boxes? it's really starting to piss me off how everything ends up in one big line. grr.

Blame FuseTalk. I never have this problem with any other forums or other places with textboxes.

Zuni probably forgot to set WRAP='virtual'

noooooo i'm doomed!

Hehe... Mozilla has been my default browser since 0.6 and I'm still alive

does zuni know about this? does he just not want to fix it or something? does opera have the same problem? maybe i shoudl switch to opera.... stupid ms should make ie for linux...

 

[Elledan]

Zuni knows about it, but well, why do you think that Zuni is so fond of IE-only stuff (think buddy-list, WYSIWYG-editor etc.)?

With Opera (5.xx and 6) you'll have a very tiny textbox, though.

hmm. that is annoying. i wonder if it would affect ie somehow to add that little bit of code in. it seems odd that one would leave it out just to spite some browsers.

*sigh*

maybe some time i'll try and see if i can't force mozilla to do it via css or something.

The piece of code I showed is fully W3C-compliant. I only use W3C-compliant code for my sites, actually.

Standards are your friend

hehe, i understand that is w3c compliant, but i was wondering if it would cause ie to render the page differently somehow, in other words, whether ie had trouble rendering that piece of w3c compliant code.

IE should have no problems with it, but if IE is anything like VC++, then IE should choke on at least a couple of W3C-compliant code fragments.
