I'm sure you've answered this in another thread, and i'm sure that those who came before already know... but which came first: The Cellar or the Undertoad?

AT LAST!

HALLELUJAH!!!

After having uninstalled the whole freakin browser, um, 20 times!, I finally learned that each time it came back from the dead the same brain damaged way.

/big sigh/

Anyway, I discovered that it uses some very persistent configuration files, namely user.js, prefs.js, and others. try typing about:config in your firefox browser. verrrrrrrrah eeeenteresting, and jes, eet steenks. Those settings stayed in place through all the uninstalls and restarts. I finally succeeded in getting what I wanted, a clean install, by renaming the Mozilla folder in the application data directory.

Yay!!

Thanks for your help.

Thanks.

Did the "Seattle" thread started by Clodfobble begin in a different category? I think it was in Home Base and now is in Cities. Juuuuust curious. I was going to ask you to do that anyway.

I intended to start a thread like it and Clodfobble's question was a gift to carry on about my home town.

Thanks.

I dunno, I forget.

UT? Is it possible to put a Next/Prev button at the top as well as the bottom of a page? This would make my browsing experience easier.

Clodfobble · 03-02-2005, 11:13 AM

Um... I do have a next/previous link at the top and bottom of every page of a thread.

Sorry! The administrator has specified that users can only post one message every 30 seconds.

WOW, I am penalized for having the ability to read and post with the utmost speed and agility. Earlier today a friend told me she got yelled at by a few co-workers for working too quickly. What's wrong with this world???

UT activated that feature when we had the attack of the annoying teenagers.

(I get caught by it a lot too. And the damn thing restarts the timer if you think 30 seconds is up earlier than it does)

Yeah, figured it was anti-spam/anti-lamer defense. But it totally cock-blocked me from posting an awesome awesome word in the word-association thread. I was pisssssed.

.......that's a novel use of the term cock-blocked.

VisionarynWinKS · 03-03-2005, 06:04 PM

Are you sure about that? Seems everyone is cloned these days.

UT:

When I am in the advanced editing text entry box, I am getting this error. It happens when I highlight text inside the box and then try to copy it to the clipboard. Right-clicking on the selected text doesn't offer Copy, so I try the little Copy icon at the top of the menu bar, and get this error message.

I would be delighted to edit my config files, but the question is what edit(s)? Do you know? Anybody?

Without this ability, I am reduced to composing in an offline editor and copying back and forth, which is unnecessarily tedious.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Undertoad · 03-04-2005, 02:04 PM

I don't know, but go into your user control panel, edit options, and turn off WYSIWIG editing. Just use "standard editor". That should fly.
