Editable datagrid firefox problem

I have created an application that contains an editable
datagrid but experiences problems when using the firefox browser.
If there are multiple tabs of firefox open and an item is selected
in the grid, when switching between the firefox tabs, the datafield
in the grid becomes selected for edit without clicking on it. It
appears that some kind of event is being called to change an entry
in the grid. Similar results occur when changing between different
windows i.e. firefox and flex builder.
However, I don't have this problem when using internet
explorer.

That should be true for any Flex component. Focus is always on something, you have to move it to a new place otherwise it gets restored back to what last had foucs.

Is there a plug-in for editing web pages in Firefox (or how to otherwise edit in Firefox?

When opening an .htm/.html file in Internet Explorer to view and/or edit, I can view the source code and choose an editing program (I use Windows Notebook as my default just because it is quick and easy). Can I edit source pages directly from the Firefox browser, or 'link' to Notebook, or . . . to accomplish the same task?
I have other editing programs on my machine, but they either are clunky or require hoops to be jumped through to do my 'hand' editing. The way I have been doing it for many years is quick and easy, and doesn't require me to open more than one program to accomplish my task. This saves a lot of time when I have multiple pages to edit and/or a lot of 'picky' changes to make.
Thanks, Ed Hansen, Seattle WA, [email protected]

Open new tabs on far right, restore pre Fx3.6 behavior, set '''browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent''' to '''false''' in '''about:config'''
For more information see item #36 in ...
You can make Firefox 4.0.1 look like Firefox 3.6.17, see numbered items 1-10 in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 look like 3.6)]

Editing in Firefox 18 is not working

Editing in Firefox 18 is not working - I cannot edit in my wordpress editor, or edit the google search text in the menu bar for example. I am on Mac OS X 10.7.5

'''Try the Firefox Safe Mode''' to see how it works there. The Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.''
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open the Firefox 4.0+ Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or use the Help menu item and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Don't select anything right now, just use "'Start in Safe Mode"''
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shift key) to open it again.''
'''''If it is good in the Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.
Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''

Editable DataGrid and setInterval()

I have a page with an editable datagrid on it. I am not using
any item renderers or anything. Also I am refreshing this page
every five seconds by doing a setInterval() on it. Here's the
scenario which is causing the problem.
I select a cell to edit. The cell's look changes from regular
text to the look of an editable field. However if the refresh
happens before I make my changes, the cell gets converted back to
regular text. Is there a way for me to maintain the editability of
the cell through the refresh or should I use some other method of
refreshing the data?

It seems to me that if the user has started entering data,
that you should suspend the refresh activity entirely, until the
current data is saved. Otherwise, it wll be nearly impossible to
update the data, since few people will be able to type and samve
sopmething in less than 5 seconds.

Value property not getting updated for edit on firefox

Der Sir/Mam,
I am a selenium tester and my test fails on moxila due to following issue,
Value property not getting updated for edit on firefox thats why failing the script while identifying the object from xPath.
The test case run fine on IE.
I want to identify the object by its xPath saying value = "Some value"
I can not check thousands of object by looking in to its value attribute property.
Thanks in advance,
Rohit

I'm not sure whether we can solve your question here. We are mostly supporting the released version of Firefox (Firefox 20) for regular use rather than old versions in a test harness. You might need to reach out to the [https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!forum/selenium-users Selenium Users Group] if you can't replicate the problem in Firefox 20.

How do I use Downloadthemall add-on with new edition of Firefox?

I installed the new edition of Firefox, but now am unable to use Downloadthemall application. Please advise.

Does the rest of the extensions list look accurate, and are the enabled/disabled groups correct? I wonder whether your extensions database has become corrupted. In the past, I have seen instructions to rename or delete certain files in your Firefox profile (settings) folder, but rather than copy and paste here, I think it's better to wait for someone more familiar with this area.

Suddenly, I've been put on multiple threads over multiple firefox problems, which is filling up my inbox. How do I get out of these?

Details? I posted a question about one problem (for which no answers have been offered, but that's okay) and somehow, I've become part of multiple threads about various firefox problems. I have no interest in any of these questions/problems.
How do I get out of these threads? I get about 15-20 emails a day! Firefox is by far the worst community I've even been dragged into....

Sorry you are having problems.
Have a look at your settings in the dropdown from the username or https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/users/settings
Not too sure what you could subscribe to accidentally that causes that behaviour though.
It would be interesting to know what option caused all the email. If something has gone wrong and you are getting e-mails that you should not be getting we can refer this to the admins to look into. The Firefox sumo community certainly does not intentionally spam, and if you are having a problem lets find out more, because others may have a problem and not have reported it.

I cannot download individual pictures from ebay. When I right click the picture (enlarged) or the small picture I don't get the option to "save picture as". Is this a firefox problem or a yahoo problem?

I always use firefox to browse the internet. When I attempt to save a picture from ebay I have always enlarged the picture, right click, the clicked "save picture as". Now when I right click I don't get that option. All it will let me do is save the entire ebay item file. When I right click on the enlarged picture, the small picture, or the white near the enlarged photo my icon choices are: 1.Copy 2. Select All 3.Yahoo 4. Search Yahoo for "Please wait imag" 5. View selection source. Is this a firefox problem or a yahoo issue? Please help. Thanks John

I've tried all kinds of different ways to make it work, and nothing! The only way I can get the pictures off ebay is open up a internet explorer window and go that route. Fire fox NEEDS to fix this NOW!

Editable DataGrid With DateField

I'm new to flex and struggling with the editable DataGrid. I
have a DataGrid with an ItemRenderer that outputs a DateField. I
can't figure out how to get the new value of the DateField after
the edit.
Here is my DataGrid (the endDate column):
<mx:DataGrid id="allHistoryGrid"
dataProvider="{allEntries}" height="313" width="782" y="-4"
itemEditEnd="saveGridChange(event)" editable="true">
<mx:columns>
<mx:Array>
<mx:DataGridColumn dataField="dietDescription"
headerText="Diet"/>
<mx:DataGridColumn dataField="allergyDescription"
headerText="Allergy"/>
<mx:DataGridColumn dataField="labDescription"
headerText="Lab"/>
<mx:DataGridColumn dataField="labResult" width="50"
headerText="Result" itemRenderer="LabResultItemRenderer"/>
<mx:DataGridColumn dataField="medicationDescription"
headerText="Medication"/>
<mx:DataGridColumn dataField="height" width="65"
headerText="Height" itemRenderer="HeightItemRenderer"/>
<mx:DataGridColumn dataField="weight" headerText="Weight"
itemRenderer="WeightItemRenderer"/>
<mx:DataGridColumn dataField="bmi" width="35"
headerText="BMI" itemRenderer="BmiItemRenderer"/>
<mx:DataGridColumn dataField="circumference" width="45"
headerText="Circ." itemRenderer="CircumferenceItemRenderer"/>
<mx:DataGridColumn headerText="Start Date" width="75"
sortCompareFunction="startDateSortCompare">
<mx:itemRenderer>
<mx:Component>
<mx:VBox clipContent="false">
<mx:DateFormatter id="dateFormatter"
formatString="MM/DD/YYYY"/>
<mx:Text width="100"
text="{dateFormatter.format(data.startDate)}"/>
</mx:VBox>
</mx:Component>
</mx:itemRenderer>
</mx:DataGridColumn>
<mx:DataGridColumn dataField="endDate" width="45"
headerText="End Date" itemRenderer="EndDateItemRenderer"
rendererIsEditor="true"/>
<mx:DataGridColumn id="deleteEntry" width="50"
textAlign="center"
headerText="Delete" sortable="false"
itemRenderer="DeleteItemRenderer"/>
</mx:Array>
</mx:columns>
</mx:DataGrid>
Here is my itemRenderer:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:VBox xmlns:mx="
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
paddingLeft="16" horizontalAlign="center">
<mx:DateFormatter id="dateFormatter"
formatString="MM/DD/YYYY"/>
<mx:DateField x="16" y="67" id="AllHistoryEndDate"
text="{dateFormatter.format(data.endDate)}"/>
</mx:VBox>
How do I get the new value in the saveGridChange function?
private function saveGridChange(event:DataGridEvent):void {

That gives me this error:
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert
EndDateItemRenderer@51a70a1 to mx.controls.TextInput.

New layout, CSS errors and Firefox problems

Hi
Could it be that some of the Firefox problems are caused by:
1) The wrong mime type for the CSS files? Currently it appears to be:
application/x-css
shouldn't it be
text/css
2) Errors in the CSS files and inline CSS of.

Can recommend using:

==== New layout ======
The border error on the download button has been fixed, but the alt attribute of the upper right search icon is still "faq", shouldn't it be "Search"

There are a number of fixes still to be made, but most of them will wait until our upgrade (still a few months out).

Formatting a field before committing from editable datagrid

Hi,
I have an editable DataGrid which displays two columns, date
and value. Now, the date in the dataProvider is actually stored as
an integer (yyyymmdd) so I format it using a labelFunction to
display. I then have a custom itemEditor to set it to a date for
calling into the DateField.
The next step, and where I'm struggling, is to update the
dataProvider with an integer (yyyymmdd) calculated from the
selectedDate. Can someone please help me with how to do this?
Thanks!

See the docs for data grid editing events, such as, I think,
itemEndEdit.

hello, maybe an addon or toolbar is inserting this code into websites - please try if sites load correctly in safemode & if so remove all extensions in firefox > addons > extensions, that you don't have installed intentionally or that might look suspicious (especially toolbars of all sorts). also have a look in the windows control panel / programs section and also uninstall toolbars etc. that are listed there...

This is a good question. It's possible your Xserver isn't configured for the correct mouse type. Try logging into a command line console (no X11 running). Run /usr/bin/X11/X -configure. It should create an Xorg configuration file in your root directory.
Copy this to /etc/X11/Xorg.conf and try restarting your Xserver. The file it creates might require some tweaking.
