Craig Hirsch	Wednesday 13 April 2005 7:32:05 am A question for the eZ crew: is Firefox officially supported as a browser choice for eZPublish administration? I've found a few nasty data- and formatting-loss bugs that crop up repeatedly when using Firefox with the Online Editor (3.5.1), so much so that I've had to abandon its use for that purpose. Custom tags lose their properties when the content object they're in is edited using the Online Editor with Firefox. Bold and italic styles do not apply properly, and opening articles that have bold and italic formatting with the Online Editor in Firefox causes that formatting to be lost. I've filed recent bugs on both of these. I'm really hoping these issues will be addressed, because Firefox is now the primary browser choice of so many of us. -- chirsch{AT}gmail{d.t}com

Craig Hirsch	Wednesday 13 April 2005 4:27:57 pm Wonderful, that's great to hear! For non-technical content editors, the Online Editor will make or break their eZ publish experience. The two bugs I've filed related to OE and Firefox: http://www.ez.no/community/bugs/online_editor_firefox_problems http://www.ez.no/community/bugs/custom_tag_attributes_do_not_save_using_ez_3_5_1_with_online_editor_in_mozilla_firefox_1_02 And one more annoying OE bug that effects both IE and Firefox: http://www.ez.no/community/bugs/oe_custom_tag_choice_does_not_reflect_in_the_custom_tag_pop_up -- chirsch{AT}gmail{d.t}com
