Firefox and Myspace

Postby Bobtheduck » Mon Dec 05, 2005 11:30 am

I noticed... Firefox is screwing up a couple of myspace profiles... I thought people just tried to hide their profiles, like some sort of self-loathing thing (it would have fit the first person who's profile suddenly showed up blank on myspace for me) but then I had a thought to check IE... Both of the profiles showed up fine... In IE, they show up with normal lettering and pictures, in Firefox, the pictures are completely gone and only the background image remained... The text is all the same color as the background, and dragging over it doesn't reveal it... What on earth happened?

They probably used some kind of bad code that Firefox doesn't allow or something...

You know, I just wish there was some way of getting a firefox that was as tolerant of bad code as IE was...

They're doing about even now, as far as I'm concerned... I'll stick with Firefox for now, but these little annoyances are building up...

Myspace allows HTML editing on your profiles.
Since Firefox is fussy about HTML, if they mess up the code, Firefox just won't work.

Messed up code is going to happen a lot on there...
