Previewing page in Firefox

I downloaded Firefox 3.6 for Mac this morning and now when I try to Preview the html page in Firefox, the browser goes directly to the "landing page" I've set in my Firefox prefs instead of the Firefox page displaying my "local" file.
Trashed the newly-downloaded Firefox, rebooted, then downloaded Firefox again, installed, rebooted only to have same thing occur. I also use Safari, Opera & Navigator for Preview Browsers and they work fine.
Anyone ever experience this?
Thanks YR

This problem hasn't really been solved, because it still exists. Mozilla said that 3.6.2 would fix the issue, but the same problem still exists. So far, the only solution is to continue using 3.5.8, or switch to a different browser.
Mozilla has also said that there is a 3rd party patch for Dreamweaver that will fix this. Follow this link to read the thread:
https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/forum/1/627688
The problem with that is that it costs $5, and I don't know about any of you, but I'm not going to pay to fix a problem that shouldn't exist in the first place. Adobe needs to buy this patch from that developer and release their own patch for Dreamweaver. Or maybe muscle Mozilla into modifying FireFox.

Dreamweaver CS4 not able to preview in new Firefox 6.02 on a PC. Was working great in 6.01 and previous versions. Any sugesstions?

I use dreamweaver for the PC for the most part of web development and use multiple browsers. Firefox is my primary browser and has been working great for preview. Firefox came out with 6.02 and now I am not able to preview pages in firefox from dreamweaver. Still works in the other browsers.

On the Comcast email site, on the "Inbox Preview" page, if I click on "View Entire Inbox" or on a particular message, Firefox will just return me to the Inbox P

On the Comcast mail site, I cannot get past the "Inbox Preview" page. If I hit anything, including "View Entire Inbox" or on a particular message, or anything else, I'll just be returned to the "Inbox Preview" page. This only happens on Firefox. When it started happening, I finally gave up and tried Internet Explorer, which works fine. I'd prefer to access email on Firefox, so please tell me how to correct this.
I don't know if this is related, but immediately before this started happening, I may have hit something on my laptop, which caused the Comcast email screen to magnify to the point where I could not view the message window on messages. I couldn't figure out how reverse this, so I did the above (went to IE, which was fine). When I next attempted to access Comcast email from Firefoxe, the site was no longer magnified, but I had the above problem with being unable to get past the Inbox Preview page.

Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
To clear cache and cookies do the following:
#Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
#Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
#Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
#From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
#Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.

I can no longer open my Comcast email when I launch from Firefox - it takes me to the email preview page but will not allow me to open the inbox . Does not happen with Internet Explorer.

This started last month - when I go to my comcast account, I'm able to log on and view my account but can not open my email inbox. When I enter my user name and password, I'm taken to the "Email Preview" page so that I can see a partial view of the inbox but when I click on "View Entire Inbox" it jumps to a page showing that it's loading but goes right back to the preview page - I can't open any of the emails. This does not happen when I use Internet Explorer or Firefox on my older laptop.

Did you find out what addon?

Why can't I view a preview page of an item I list on ebay in Firefox. I can view in internet explorer

Prior till about 24 hours ago, I was able to preview an item that I listed on ebay without any problems. Now I cannot preview the item in Firefox, but I can preview the item in internet explorer. What might be causing this?
Thanks,

Are you trying to use the built-in Print Preview in Firefox, or is this a page specially generated by eBay?
Do you get an error message when trying to view the page, or nothing happens when you click the link/button, or ... what exactly happens?
In case you haven't already...
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* (menu bar) Tools > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
In case one of your extensions is involved, could you test the page in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still run
After Firefox shuts down, a small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).
Any difference?

Why won't Firefox open my e-mail page, after clicking the tab, from a Comcast preview page?

I have Comcast.net. From my home page, when I click the email button, first, I must sign-in and then a preview page appears with a short list of emails. When I click the tab to open the entire email page, the entire page does not open as it should. When I click each email on the preview page, each email will not open, as it should, either. This all worked, previously, but stopped working about 3 days ago.

This issue can be caused by corrupted cookies.
Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
* Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
* Firefox > Preferences > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Menu_differences
*Windows: Firefox (Tools) > Options
*Mac: Firefox > Preferences
*Linux: Edit > Preferences

Preview Page Templates on Firefox not working if off https domains...

I thought it was me just losing it after a very long day but it has been confirmed with that if you are in BC via the worldsecuresystems domain and choose to preview a page template then it won't dislpay correctly. Previewing pages is fine.
Thanks to the investigations by Abhishek Maurya on the chat support he identified that Firefox is blocking the non secure content on the page, http://prntscr.com/3ezuxr which is knd of important.
The problem does not occur in IE at least.

All your internal stuff like scripts etc should be relative referenced. The issue does occur in IE it just behaves a bit differently Greg.
Cross domain is not a browser thing but a web thing.
Certificates will not validate when you have this sort of thing occur.
If your using 3rd party services like google fonts you should look to use // instead of http:// in front of the URL.

Previewing page in IE7

I am taking a course from Iconlogic and one section
deals with doing image swaps. I completed the assignment and went
to preview but only get a page of code...no representation of the
page in IE 7. However, when I preview it in Firefox the rollovers
(image swapping) works fine. Is there a problem with using AP
Elements and IE 7??

open this site definition for editing.
dw menu-->site-->Manage Sites
pick this site, click edit.
click the Advanced tab to find things easier and simply.
click the Testing Server info.
Is anything listed??
If yes- Do you need or want a testing server?
does this site have asp or php serverside coding?
if not- set Testing server access method to NONE.

"Preview Page in Browser" stopped working...

Hi guys,
First off, looking forward to seeing what's unveiled at Create Now Live on December, 11th!
Anyway, here's the Muse bug that just cropped up yesterday as I was working on a niche one-pager site: when I tried "Preview Page in Browser," nothing happened.
Usually when I'm working in Muse, I already have Firefox open on my screen, and when I hit "Preview Page in Browser," it'll open a new tab with the preview. This time, nada, no new tab, no preview.
Have no idea if my system settings or anything else has changed since the last time I designed a mini-site in Muse, a few weeks ago, when "Preview in Browser" was working fine. I'm on an (aging) PC laptop, running Windows XP.
Any ideas what's going on? Thanks again!
D

Hello,
Could you please check if the issue is specific to one website on your computer.
You can try creating a new test website and check if you are able to preview it in a browser or not.
If it does not work, please try deleting the AdobeMuse folder from the location :
Windows 7: C:\Users\your_user_name\AppData\Roaming\
Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\your_user_name\Application Data
Mac: /Users/your_user_name/Library/Preferences/
After that please relaunch Adobe Muse and check if you get the preview in Browser feature to work or not.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Sachin

Subscribing to a page with Firefox Live Bookmarks launches Mac Mail?!

Can anyone PLEASE help me?! I'm going insane here. I just upgraded to Firefox 3, but the same thing was happening with Firefox 2. Any time I tried to subscribe to a page using Firefox Live Bookmarks (or do anything related to RSS feeds), my mac launches the Mail app and forces me to subscribe to the feed there. I don't even have Mail configured with any accounts anymore. Mail was set to use Firefox as the RSS reader, Safari is set to use Firefox as the RSS reader, and yet any time I click an RSS feed, it launches Mail. I've trashed my Mail preferences, but it keeps doing it!! What's going on here?! Please help, this is driving me crazy.

You might think the exact same thing happens, and that clicking an RSS link in Safari would simply launch mail and give me the same configuration screen (again, Mail is no longer configured on my computer so it always wants me to set up an account). But no! Trying to subscribe in Safari actually opens a new tab in Firefox, which loads a blank page for a few seconds, and THEN mail launches and tries to handle the RSS subscription.
I tried subscribing to a live bookmark in Firefox on a PC just to see what the behavior was supposed to look like, and saw that it loads a feedburner page with a preview of the feed, and at the top is an interface to decide what on your computer is supposed to handle feedburner feeds. I can either leave it set to Live Bookmarks, or choose any other application I want. I wonder if the same sort of thing is going on with the Mac? Somehow the Mail app got locked into being the default application for RSS feeds and I can't change it? I mean, obviously something like that is going on, I just don't know what to do about it.
I tried going into System Preferences - Default Apps to see if there was an RSS entry there, but when I try to run Default Apps, I get the message "You cannot open Default Apps preferences because it doesn't work on an Intel-based Mac." Oh.

Preview in browser - Firefox / File not found

Specs:
OS X 10.4.7
Dreamweaver 8.0.2
Firefox 1.5.0.1
I (and my whole office) am having a major problem. We all
work directly from files on our osx server. When working in
Dreamweaver and trying to "Preview in browser" with Firefox 1.5 we
get a "File not found" error. The problem seems to be stemming from
the path lacking the "Volumes" part of the directory.
For example:
When I preview in Safari the path is shown as:
file:///Volumes/Server_HD/Website_Folder/index.html (this
works)
But on Firefox or Mozilla I get:
file:///Server_HD/Website_Folder/index.html (this does not
work)
This problem did not occur in previous versions of Firefox.
Due do this problem, I have virtually eliminated Firefox as part of
my workflow in favor of Safari. I would love to return to Firefox
can anybody please help me!?

Can you try again please, although not in a narrative? Just
go to the
ADVANCED tab on the Site Definition panel, and list the
contents of the
fields you see for Local, Remote, and Testing Categories (no
need for the
login info).

TS3899 WWhen I try to access my email, I can see mail in the preview page but when I click to go to my inbox it bounces back out to my password again, so I re-enter password and it just keeps bouncing out - help!

Hi
When I try to access my email I can see mail the preview page but when I click to go to inbox it bounces back out to my password again. I re-enter password and it does the same again. I've found only way to access is if I clear cookies and history first which obviously I would rather not have to do everytime. Anyone got any answers for this one please.

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
[[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''

'''''If the issue is not present in 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.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
