Why can't firefox deal with percent max-height of percent max-height?

I think this is possibly a bug.
Firefox is not able to use percent max-height of a percent max-height. Chromium does. But it is difficult to explain. Please have a look at this fiddle, with firefox and chromium, you will see the different behaviour by resizing the browser window: http://jsfiddle.net/qx75g/
I need this for my website but cannot use it, because it does not work with firefox :(
( archlinux with firefox 28.0 )

Okay, so the page on MDN says
<blockquote>The percentage is calculated with respect to the height of the generated box's containing block. If the height of the containing block is not specified explicitly (i.e., it depends on content height), and this element is not absolutely positioned, the percentage value is treated as none.</blockquote>
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/max-height
That seems to be copied more or less verbatim from CSS2 Level 1: http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/visudet.html#min-max-heights
Which makes me think that it isn't like to change in the near future...
Any reason not to set height:50% for .inner? How does leaving that unspecified benefit the layout?

Why can't itunes deal with...

blues   is the same genre as
Blues
dance is the same genre as
daNce
The Beatles   is the same artist as
the beatles     is the same artist as
The beatles
Then there is the muliple instances of the same album in cover flow. Wow!
Super Annoying!!

Technically, they're not the same, sometimes two bands have a name that sounds the same except it's written slightly different. But yes, you can solve it pretty easily:
1. In the search field, type 'Beatles'.
2. Once all your Beatles music is there, be it The Beatles, the Beatles or the beatles, select them all.
3. Press 'Cmd + i' to display the track information.
4. In the Artist field, write the name such as you want it to be.
To unify your songs that belong to the same Genre you'll just have to follow the same steps but replace 'Artist' with 'Genre' in the field you'll be editing.
You might have different cover art and thus create a mess in cover flow if your files are imported from a cd and not purchased from the iTunes store, especially if you added the cover yourself. The way to correct this is similar to the one described above.

Thank you for replying. Unfortunately, I already did all of these things. As you can see from the below screenshot, the language is already set. Also, this screenshot was taken in Safe Mode, so NoScript is not enabled. About:accounts still says I need to enable cookies for some reason. So, this solution didn't work....

Why can't I communicate with both of my GPIB devices?

I have 1 NI PCI GPIB board in my computer
I have 2 identical devices (keithley 237) connected one at address 15 one at address 16
and 2 different programs one program to connect with 15 and 1 to connect with 16
after I tell the 1st labview program to communicate with 15 then I tell the 2nd labview program to communicate with 16. then both communications come back with error device timeout. one at a time, I can communicate find with either device.
Why can't I communicate with two different GPIB devices at the same time?

Hi mrutter,
first I would try some other addresses, e.g. 5 and 11. 15, 16 could be
a special address used by the controller.
Are there any other devices on the GPIB? If so then there could be
another instrument with the same ID. Do both (or all) devices show in
MAX, and can you communicate with them in MAX (e.g. query a *IDN? )
And are you sure that you *have* setup the correct addresses in the
Keithley instruments (look in the manuals if you don't know how to
change their addresses)? Some Keithley instrument are in local mode by
default, and you must explicitely set them in GPIB mode.
Sometimes, GPIB message termination can be an issue (although both the
GPIB cards and the instruments seem to get more tolerant of this).
Also, you must be very careful not to mix different versions of
LabView drivers and LabView version. I once had three different
LabView versions on a PC, it was terrible. We had to format the
harddisk and start afresh since we couldn't remove all of the older
versions.
I first try all GPIB instruments in MAX. If all devices appear there,
and I can query commands in MAX, then I usually write my own LabView
drivers with the standard GPIB-read and -write VIs. I write them with
my oldest LabView version (say 5.1), then I am sure they will work
with all versions up to 7.1
Actually I once had a project where *no* GPIB instrument worked 100%.
We could never really find out what was the problem (it was probably a
bad PC <-> Win98 <-> GPIB card <-> LabView 5.1 constellation).
Good luck.

Why can't I login with my Apple ID when I try to setup Cloud on my MacBook Pro?

thanks,

First question that I am not clear on your answer about: Is the Apple ID itself a valid email address, and the same one that you have as your Primary email address on your account? If the actual Apple ID is not an email address, then that is why you are not able to sign on to iCloud or to verify it....it must be an email address.
If it is an email address then:
Update your OS to the latest version - 10.8.5
Once you have updated, reboot the Mac and then go to Preferences>iCloud and try to sign on with your Apple ID again.
Check Manage your Apple ID to make sure that your Apple ID/Primary email address is verified.
If the problem persists, contact iCloud Support to see if they can provide you with an explanation of the meaning of the message. If the Apple ID has already been verified, then I'm not sure why you would be getting this messge:

You can with third party apps. You just can't use Messages in order to text since it only works with other iOS devices and Macs running Mountain Lion.

Were you bought out by Google Chrome? This is beyond frustrating and ******* off your customers even if you are a free service is probably not a good business model.

You can't do OCR without knowledge of the language, because a crucial part of OCR is spell checking to test the possible text extraction. Well, you could try claiming the language is English, but the result may be unhappy.

The Dolphin Browser is compatible with the Toshiba Thrive (I can see video). Why can't Firefox provide the same?

The Toshiba Thrive is not listed on your site as a compatible device. I have installed Firefox on my Thrive. I love the inteface. But, the lack of a flash plugin is a deal breaker. If Dolphïn and Opera and Maxthon can provide it, why can't FF?

Flash on Android is not the same as Flash on Windows or OS X. Adobe and Google have both radically changed how browsers and plugins interact. Without documentation about these changes the Firefox developers need to try and make educated guesses about what Adobe and Google designed. This is a slow and hard process.
Most browser are only a skin over the Android stock browser. Thus they get Flash support for free. Getting Flash working on a non-stock browser is a lot more work. Firefox 10 will provide very limited support for Flash in 2.2 and 2.3 devices.
Work is ongoing on getting Flash working on Honeycomb devices.
