I need to place the Maltese cross on a web page. IE works, Safari works, but Firefox does not. It is wingding character.

The Maltese cross is in the winding font family. I have the following HTML on the pages:
<pre><nowiki>
<span class="cross" style="font-family: wingdings; vertical-align: top;">X</span></nowiki></pre>
The inline element <span> tag is in a <font> tag.
CSS: span.cross { color: #000; font-size: 16pt; font-weight: bold; }
This has been working for years in IE 5, 6, 7 & 8, works also in safari (latest rev), but does not work in FireFox rev 4.0.1. FoxFire displays a large X instead of the Maltese cross.
Other than this small problem FoxFire works great, especially with HTML5 & CSS3.
Any help would be appreciated.

This concerns the Maltese cross problem. When I posted the problem, the data inside "<" and ">" characters is lost. The only thing that showed was the "X".
I posted the HTML used to display the cross w/o these chars.
span class="cross" style="font-family: wingdings; vertical-align: top" X /span
Thanks for any help.

    Why do we have to install 2 add ins for something that should be built in? Please add this to the next version or an update to this one even. We should see the full path of a bookmark when we search for it. Show Parent Folder alone isn't enough if you have sub folders, so I installed Go Parent Folder as well in case of sub folders.

    Lucky you, it did not work for many users (which as it should be) so MS produced a new version, for ML and Mavericks.
    It's in the App Store, for free.

    Use the small camera icon in the editor toolbar to post it.

    Firefox will only remember a password if you click the Remember button on the sliding bar at the top that opens when Firefox detects a password.<br />

  • I am trying to use a website that requires that my computer have the lastest version of Java, which I have updated and installed, however Firefox does not recon

    I am trying to use a website that requires that my computer have the latest version of Java, which I have updated and installed Java 7 Update 51 (64-bit), however Firefox does not recognize that I even have Java on my computer. My computer is 64-bit
    When I run "Verify Java Version" it show nothing is installed... but it is, I know that for a fact because it shows in my "Control Panel/Programs/Programs and Features".
    When I go back to the Java Download page, the following message is visible:
    "We have detected you may be viewing this page in a 32-bit browser. If you use 32-bit and 64-bit browsers interchangeably, you will need to install both 32-bit and 64-bit Java in order to have the Java plug-in for both browsers."
    My question is this:
    Is there a way to change my Firefox browser from 32-bit to 64-bit.... because it appears that this is way Java is not functioning properly?

    Firefox needs 32-bit plugins, so you'll need to install 32-bit Java for Firefox.
    No, you can't change Firefox from 32-bt to 64-bit. There is a Nightly 64-bit version (alpha) of Firefox, but it is used only to test for regressions until development is resumed.

  • Need to format the drive on a 2006 MacBook Pro 10.6.8. Command R does not get it to recovery mode. I need to format, reload OS10 and partition the drive.

    I tried command R to get into recovery mode. My goal is to format the MBP drive, partition the drive and load Windows through Boot Camp. Disk Utility will not allow access to reformat the drive. Is there another access method to format the drive?

    jjoside,
    Snow Leopard (Mac OS X 10.6.8) does not come with Recovery mode; you’d need Lion (Mac OS X 10.7) or newer for that. If you’d like to reformat your internal disk and reïnstall Snow Leopard on it, you’ll need to boot from the white retail Snow Leopard DVD which was originally used to install Snow Leopard on your MacBook Pro. [Your 2006 MacBook Pro came from the factory with Tiger (Mac OS X 10.4.something) installed.] If you no longer have your white Snow Leopard DVD, you can purchase a replacement Snow Leopard DVD from Apple.

  • I have a 3 slide presentation I want a variable to change when the final slide is finished playing. I went to the final slide and dis On Enter Increment  End_swf by 1. but this does not work

    I then take the swf of another a program (lectora) and do a get variable, the variable End_swf does not show up, I did create the variable in captivate, also created an action in captivate. and thought the action would activate  On enter Slide

    Thank you for the Great Response!
    I created a variable named “End_swf” to let me know that the presentation was done playing, I can see the variable being updated thanks you for that one
    I want bring it into another program (Lectora), and have it read that variable,
    What you showed me helps me confirm that there is a variable in the swf
    I guess I may have to use Java script to pass that variable on to lectora

  • I have stored the password for a site I use often, but Firefox does not remember. Have to type in each time.

    User name and password are stored correctly in preferences, but the fields remain blank whenever I try to login to a site I use often. No prompt "Do you want firefox to remember..." Do get a popup "do you want to update password?" but it makes no difference whether I check yes or not.
    No such problem with several other sites whose passwords are stored.

    You must have the "Remember passwords" feature enabled for the browser to remember them. In Firefox 2.0 and above, make sure Tools -> Options -> Security / Passwords -> "Remember passwords for sites" is checked.
    Additionally, you may have once told the browser to never save the passwords for the site. In Firefox 2.0 and above, check the list under Tools -> Options -> Security / Passwords -> Exceptions. Also make sure you are not private browsing while saving password.

  • My website presents RSS feeds to viewers. This works great with IE but Firefox does not load the RSS data, although it does present the page with blank data regions. Ideas?

    Web design tool used is NetObject Fusion 11 which puts a php proxy script on the server to function as a gateway between the RSS feed and the browser.

    XmlDocument.create doesn't seem to work in Firefox. You can see an error in the Tools > Error Console

  • Private browsing worked fine on the last version, but does not seem to work at all in the new 4 version, so what is the problem? I have uninstalled and reinstalled it several times but that does not solve the problem.

    My points above lay out the problem and I get messages telling me it can't find the files....Why is it not working when it did just fine right up until you came out with version 4???
    Any suggestions? I may have to go to another browser, but I have always like your product best.

    You are welcome. There has never been a need to move that one before, but try it since you can always put it back.
    If the same, try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account.  Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear and again when you log in. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don’t do them all at once.

  • When I run the installation utility nothing happens. I can save the file to the desktop or run it directly within another browser but Firefox does not install--the wizard never even initiates.

    Earlier this week Firefox 4.0 crashed. Unsure what happened I elected to reinstall. I downloaded a fresh copy of Firefox from the website and reinstalled. That was a disaster. Firefox was running about 1/20th the speed of Explorer.
    Figuring I had some residual problem from the crash I performed a full uninstall, eliminating all personal data and customization, to again install. I have now downloaded the installation utility eight times and not one has worked. Once the program finishes extracting it closes. The installation wizard never launches. I have tried both saving to my local disk and running from within the browser and I get the same result.

    Firefox is only a browser; it doesn't have the ability to install third party apps other than those specifically written for it like plugins and extensions.
    So after you choose "Save file", click the "Downloads" button in the toolbar and then right click the downloaded file and choose "Open Containing Folder", or "Open File Location" to take you to the folder where it can be found. See screenshot for an example of what the Download button looks like.
    From there, double click it to start the installation.
    To update Firefox, click Help | Check For Updates in the version you're running right now. The upgrade will subsequently take place automatically.
    N.B. If the file you downloaded didn't come from a bona fide source, always right click it and choose to scan it with your anti-virus app first before you run (double click) it. That way, you avoid installing malware which piggybacks onto another app.
