Firefox 4 seems to action on some html tags that are included within a html comment tag which it should not.

Consider the following html code where I open a textarea and include a comment tag within the textarea. Within the comment tag (which Firefox 4 should ignore) I've included a close textarea tag. Firefox 4 (unlike FF3 and IE) closes the textarea.
The following code is also available at
http://www.cems.uwe.ac.uk/caa/ffbug/index.html
We are about to start a textarea....<p>
<pre><nowiki><textarea rows='20' cols='40'>
Here is the textarea.
Inside these comment blocks I'll put a close textarea tag which Firefox should ignore but does not.
<p>
<!--
We are now inside comment blocks...
<br>
This code should be inside the text area.<br>
</textarea>
<br>
and so should this code be <b>inside</b> the text area (but is not in Firefox 4).
-->
</textarea>
<p></nowiki></pre>
This code should be outside the textbox.

  • How to hear the 5.1 sound when watching some TV chanels that are transmited with A

    Hi all,
    I've got some question that i haven't found an answer to on goole, finnaly i've decided to try to search at source - at Creative site. I've read many post on this forum but it seems there isn't answer for my problem.
    I have got:? TV satellite receiver with? optical? out (spdif Toslink),? SB? X-Fi Audio PCI-E (with spdif In and out) and 5. speakers from Genius.
    After i have connected everything (sat (OPT OUT) to sb (OTP IN) and sb to speakers) it works great as stereo but when i turn on AC3 (when watching channel which supports it) on my satelite reci'ver i can't hear any sound
    In " Digital Connections, SPDIF and Dolby Digital Info" topic i've founded chatper about decoding AC3 with Sound Blaster. "2) Decode the AC3/DTS with your Sound Blaster." It is a little different explamle then my, so please can anybody tell me, how to do it ? How to set SB settings ? Should i download some additional software that will must be runing when watching TV (I dont know maybe there is something like "acti've decoder of AC3"). Maybe it it not possible at all
    I just want to hear the 5. sound when watching some TV chanels that are transmited with AC3.
    Please help me .
    Best regards Arek.
    P.S. 5. sound works, when watching DVD or avi movies with AC3 filter

    with X-fi Xtreme Audio it is not possible to decode DD from spdif-in

  • What is the best way to properly activate the Lightroom Student Edition? Is the Student Edition a permanent program or does it deactivate after 2-4 years like some other programs that are student versions?

    I just purchased the student edition of Lightroom! I am very excited to use it and start creating beautifully edited photos but I'm a little unsure about a few things. It says I have to prove my eligibility to use the student edition which won't be an issue but what is the quickest and easiest way to submit this proof? Also I am concerned that the student edition will be temporary and I will have bought this program only to have it expire at the end of 4 years like some other programs that are student versions. Is the student edition of Lightroom a permanent program that I will have for life or will it deactivate after I graduate?

    When I purchased my academic version of Lightroom, it was a package set. Inside was a yellow card with the instructions on how to verify that I qualified for the academic discount. I submitted my academic e-mail address and other info as requested on that yellow card. Within 5 min. I received my serial number. Very straightforward. I had no problems whatsoever.
    There is only one version of the Lightroom program itself. The only difference is in the licensing and pricing. If you qualify for the academic discount, by all means use it. You are purchasing the same Lightroom program that anyone else does. It doesn't expire, there are no missing features, and it can be upgraded when new major versions are released. Those upgrades will cost the same as they cost for any other person, regardless of how they purchased Lightroom.
    You can confidently move ahead with obtaining your serial number. The only thing you are doing differently is paying a lower initial purchase price because of your academic status.

  • Hi I'm looking for some keyboard shortcut that are Mac but I want PC. Here they are:

    Hi I'm looking for some keyboard shortcut that are Mac but I want PC. Here they are:
    ATL + shift + l
    ATL + q
    ATL + a
    ATL + shift + e
    ATL + z
    ATL + x
    ALT + SHIFT + g
    ALT + SHIFT + f
    they are for mac I them would like for pc... Thank you

    Ah, thanks. Goes to show how carefully I look at keyboards these days...
    So Opt(alt) on the Mac should map to Alt on PC.
    It would actually be helpful if the OP told us waht the shortcuts were meant to do...
    And there's always the help files. A complete list of default shortcusts is at http://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/using/default-keyboard-shortcuts.html

  • Deleting paragraph tags that are in use is allowed in FM 9!

    Has anyone besides me noticed that FM 9 allows you delete a paragraph tag in a document even though the paragraph tag is in use? I've found that the result of deleting the tag is that text with that tag is unaffected and even still has the deleted tag applied to it. However, the tag is no longer selectable from the paragraph tag list. FM8 would prompt would warn you that its in use before you attempt to delete it.
    The above behavior is at least the case for documents that I've used that were originally created in FM 8. Anyway, this lack of warning makes it darn impossible to efficiently remove unused tags from a document.
    Thanks.

    Kurt,
    I'm not sure why you think that FM8 has been different… it isn't. Every version of FM has always allowed to delete paragraph styles, no matter if they are used or not. Paragraphs using the (deleted) format are now shown with an asterisk, like an overidden format, while keeping all attributes.
    This is why 3rd party vendors like ITL sell FrameScript scripts, which only delete unused styles and objects from documents.

  • Can I turn off Robo9 Meta Tags that are being inserted?

    We are having problems with the Robo9 meta tags and scripts that are being inserted in every file.  The problem is especially painful when converting older projects and then attemtping builds that fail because of the new tags and scripts.  Is there a way to turn these things off in Robo9?  Or, is there a template file somewhre that it uses to create new files that we can modify for our needs?  Thanks in advance.

    You cannot turn them off.

  • FireFox 3.6 and Adobe Reader X. Reader X PDFs opened within the browser contain links, which do not work. Anyone got clues on why the links fail and how to fix?

    When we rolled out ReaderX and AcrobatX we uncheck the Diaply PDF in Browser window. OK with IE, but ignored in FireFox (3.6.16). We can live with that except the PDFs have links to other URLs and clicking on them is ignored. Same PDF opened outside the browser the links work fine. FireFox with Reader 9.4.0 no problem. Reader X with IE no problem. I can fix the Display in Browser with a change to firefox.js, but have not figured out how to fix the links when the PDF is displayed within the browser.

    My replies are in Bold.
    Thank you for your response and message.
    1. Are you seeing this problem with all kinds of PDF's or some specific  kinds like secure PDF's (with doc open password or printing  restrcitions), reader extended PDF's or PDF forms.
    This problem is with all kind's of PDF's.
    2. Are you opening a locally saved PDF by doing a drag drop in the  browser or right click and open with IE/FF or directly opening a PDF  hosted on the internet?
    It doesn't matter. However I do it, I see this problem in Firefox, IE & Google Chrome.
    3.  Can you also check the version of the Reader X browser plugin? you  could find it at C:\Program Files\Common  Files\Adobe\Acrobat\ActiveX\AcroPDF.dll. Right click -> Properties  -> Details
    If version is 9.0.x then you could try a clean install of Reader X.
    I have checked it. It's the latest plug-in (though at the moment, I have gone back to Adobe Reader 9.4.1, as I've mentioned before, because I need the reader to be working fine for my work and daily life. I am just waiting for a fix before I try Adobe Reader X again.
    As I've mentioned before, I am seeing this issue ONLY on my Windows 7 Ultimate (Laptop). In the desktop's at work, with Windows XP / Vista, I don't see it. Adobe Reader is working fine, browser integration is fine, the floating tool bar works fine, the right click menu pop' up where the right click is done...I can also save PDF' from the main toolbar at the top and so on...
    I really have run out of ideas.... and I am very surprised that no expert support personnel (if at all there is one) have dropped by or said anything or mentioned anything about this.
    Anyway.... Cheers.

  • I have Firefox 7.0 and I cannot alphabetize bookmarks that are online. I can alphabetize the ones on the first line where you see file, edit, view etc. But not under Bookmarks

    I am trying to alphabetize both the separate websites and also the folders, I cannot do the folders. I have read every article, I tried the import, export function, I tried snyc, nothing seems to work. The bookmark folders are in the Yahoo tool bar that is added.

    Me again,
    A friend suggested that I do a system restore.
    I did a search for system restore in Windows 7 and got a very intuitive menu.
    I selected an earlier system restore point and executed the restore.
    After the computer restart I reloaded Firefox 5.0 and the Ask.com problem was corrected.
    My friend says this approach may work about 25% of the time to fix this kind of problem. In my case it worked and I am happy.
    Thanks all.

  • I have Mac OSX 10.4.11. Every time I try to download Firefox 8, I get a popup that my computer won't support it. Which version should I download, and where can I get lower versions?

    Every time I google Firefox 7, Firefox 8 comes up.

    Beginning with Firefox 4, Macs must have an Intel x86 processor (which you do have) '''''<u>and</u>''''' OSX 10.5 or higher (you have version 10.4)
    *System Requirements: [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/4.0/system-requirements/index.html Firefox 4] [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/5.0/system-requirements/index.html Firefox 5] [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/6.0/system-requirements/index.html Firefox 6] [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/7.0/system-requirements/index.html Firefox 7] [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/8.0/system-requirements/index.html Firefox 8]
    If you upgrade your OS to 10.5 or greater, you can use the current Firefox version.
    '''''The good news''''' is that Firefox 3.6.24 still supports OSX 10.4 and Macs with the PPC Mac architecture. '''''The bad news''''' is that support for the Firefox 3.6.x series is likely to end in the first quarter of 2012.

  • HT202297 The Reminders app on my OS X version 10.9 doesn't seem to have badge icons for apps that are overdue.  How do I get the badge icons for the app?

    Being overtly organised, I assign due times to all my reminders on the reminder app.  Recently, I realised that the badge icons (detailing the number of overdue reminders) do not pop up anymore.  How do I get them to reappear again?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    There are two Applications folders: /Applications (in the root level of the hard drive) and ~/Applications (in your user folder).
    If you have a look at the bottom part of the screenshot, you can see where Chess is stored, and it indicates that it's stored in /Applications, so you are looking for applications in the wrong folder.
    Open a Finder window, go to Finder menu (on the menu bar) > Preferences > Sidebar, and mark Applications. Then, close the Preferences window and you will be able to access to the Applications folder in the Finder sidebar. Another option would be to go to View menu (on the menu bar) and type:
    /Applications

  • I've got some "undeliverable" emails that are also undeletable

    Everytime I bounce spam, I usually get a load of undeliverable messages back which I also bounce.
    Bounce bounce bounce all day long.
    On a few occaisons, I've received an undeliverable message that I cannot delete from my inbox.
    Oh, it gets better.
    Then when I try and bounce it, it spawns yet another undeliverable message that also sits in my inbox. I've got about six of these things staring at me everyday.
    Taunting me. Daring me to bounce them.
    Anyone have any ideas on how to delete these for good?
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Hello Greg.
    Since spammers don't provide a valid sending or return email address, why are you bouncing spam and then bouncing the return email error message indicating the bounced message was undeliverable?
    This is similar to a dog chasing his tail and is a complete waste of time.
    Do you keep the message preview pane open or closed?

  • Why won't Index tags that are associated with more than one topic work on a Mac?

    I used RoboHelp 8 to generate a project for PCs and Macs. An index entry ("documentation", in the following examples) is associated with two topics. If I click that index entry in the output on a PC, the appropriate topic links appear and I can jump to the topics. On a Mac, any index entry that has more than one topic associated with it will not work. I just wondering if anyone else has experienced this.

    I suspect but cannot confirm it is a browser issue with output from an older version of Rh. Can you install the Rh10 trial on a machine other than your normal production machine?
