I seem to be encountering more and more difficulty with sites I visit
(for personal business) using Firefox. Some render incorrectly, some
just malfunction.
I'm used to some sites having a serious IE bias, but just for grins I
tried them with several other browsers (Opera, Safari, etc.) and was
surprised to see that only FF was misbehaving. So I thought I'd poll to
see who uses which browser.
I usually have about 8 browsers installed to see how my web pages view
on them. For my own personal use, I usually use the current stable
version of Firefox, which is 6 at the moment. When I find a site with
a problem on Firefox, I usually bookmark it on Opera and use Opera for
repeated visits to the site. I had to do this when viewing the local
newspaper online, which uses pdf. I sometimes use IE9 for viewing
media, for some still use ActiveX media code only which will not view
properly on some other browsers.
All browsers I have used for an extended time have some bugs,
especially for media. At update time, some old bugs get corrected,
while new bugs may pop up. It is especially important to view your
media pages on each new update of a browser. Also it is import to view
on different OSs. Do not assume that because your video views well on
a Vista 32-bit OS that it will also view well on a Vista 64-bit OS,
for example. example.

select the Real player button. There you will find a description of a
current bug for Firefox.
For detailed discussion of Firefox problems, you may wish to visit a
Firefox or Mozilla group. If some Firefox bug especially bothers you,
you should report it to Bugzilla so the proper people at Mozilla are
more likely to notice your problem.
