Title: Web browser?
Post by: admin on September 12, 2006, 09:54:45 am
What web browser do you use?

I've got IE 7 Beta, Mozilla Firefox, and Opera. I mainly use Firefox though, Urbandead looks horrid in Opera.

I use Firefox at home but I must use IE6 at work. I run Firefox 2 beta on my laptop and none of the UD extensions work for it.

How do you get Firefox 2 beta? I'm running 1.5. Is the Beta good?

The problem with the extensions is that they're all woefully inefficient and out-of-date. We really need someone to pick up the pieces and do some updates.

I'm doing my best, but Java isn't a language I'm familiar with. I've managed to iron some bugs out of UDTool, but unless I learn Java proper, I won't be able to do much more than that.

I'll be honest and say I'm not sure. I had Bon Echo (the original name for the beta) and I logged on one day and said there was a newer version so I downloaded it.

The link for the download is on this page (http://www.mozilla.org/projects/bonecho/releases/2.0b1.html).

I salute your attempts to iron out bugs in the UDTool Xoid.

Is it possible for you to give me an updated copy?

I can give you one that properly tallies inventory, fixes some minor spelling errors and doesn't include the defunct zombie tracker any more, but I'll need to look into how to make an XPI. I don't normally work with extensions, so this is all new to me.

Well, if you could then that would be great.

I'm sorry but I just can't seem to find the time to package it. I can give you the modified file instead. Should I just send it to your Gmail address?

Yeah, I only read email at my gmail address.

Thanks.

its not all that great. it acctualy has some problems with urban dead, the full names of buildings dont always show up, im usualy just stuck seeing the middle. it pisses me off sometimes, but its still better than trying to use IE on a mac.
