+Woodbury Walker Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 I have been using Firefox in conjunction with OE and there seems to be very little difference except that the Google maps are not shown correctly on Firefox! Can some tell me why? What settings I have wrong please? Quote Link to comment

Can some tell me why? What settings I have wrong please? I suggest you take a look at this pinned topic - I switched to Firefox and have never looked back thanks to a few cachers here who develop wonderful add-ons Quote Link to comment

Can some tell me why? What settings I have wrong please? In what way are your Google maps not appearing correctly. The look identical here. Gotta love Firefox, smaller, more secure, customisable and more web standards compliant. Quote Link to comment

+keehotee Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 (edited) Gotta love Firefox, smaller, more secure, customisable and more web standards compliant. Smaller??? Not in the amount of memory it hogs..... More secure? Not on my machine. Not to mention the boot time - aaaaaaaaaaaggghhh. Still use it in preference to IE though Edited December 20, 2007 by keehotee Quote Link to comment

I had a similar problem, and I just copied the whole of the Firefox folder from the application data on my main computer to the laptop, and overwrote all the files there, and lo! - a clone of my main installation with all the bookmarks, settings, everything, including the maps. Hope this helps. Edited December 21, 2007 by walkergeoff Quote Link to comment

Merry Christmas Sorry for the delay in reply, the problem is that you were using an old version of the script that had become broken by gc.com changes. Updating to the most recent release has fixed it. Quote Link to comment
