Same reply, done in Opera 9.50 (for posterities' sake, & to illustrate ONE of the issues I have on this forums board engine, using FireFox 3, by way of comparison):

------------------------------------

FF3's already got "security holes" in it, hours after its release:

http://secunia.com/advisories/30761/

Opera 9.50, also newly released? Has NO SUCH security issues, & still is @ a total of 0% KNOWN UNPATCHED SECURITY VULNERABILITIES...

PLUS, I am testing FF3, right now as I write this, on THIS website... & have had issues with it already (mainly in logging in, once you are inside a topic already & trying to reply here - it won't let you see the "password" field, but it DOES let you see the "username" field, IF you are inside a topic trying to reply - the "workaround" is to hit the MAIN forums section & then login, because then it lets you see the "username" AND "password" fields)!

Opera 9.50 also gets the formatting right on this forums, & also does NOT give me a hardtime on logging into a post to reply (where FF3 omits the pwd field) either...

Opera's faster, more secure, & just overall BETTER, just based on history AND what I am seeing as "messed up" so far, in FF3...

APK

P.S.=> Also, upon replies? FF3 seems to omit placing in , same as enter key keypress (carriage return + linefeed) & sets the formatting of posts all "willy-nilly", as far as I am concerned... as you can see here? I am NOT getting my paragraph breaks inserted as they SHOULD be, using FF3... (my initials & P.S. for instance, are ALWAYS in diff. paragraphs when I post)... apk
