I'll fiddle around with the code and see if that works -- thanks, Eddie.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I don't know if this is a Mac thing or a Mac-Firefox thing, but for some reason, I can't tab-enter to post anymore. Hitting tab takes me to the Search box, and even if I keep hitting it, it never seems to land on the Post button. Is there a setting I can change to fix this, or am I stuck using the mouse to post?

One more -- I frelled something in my Firefox profile, but I can't figure out how to create a new one. This is what the Mozilla help site says:
On Linux or Mac, start Firefox with the the -profilemanager switch, e.g. ./firefox -profilemanager (this assumes that you're in the firefox directory).
Can someone translate that into English for me?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
That should be done from a Terminal window.
Anyone know the default firefox directory is on a Mac?
et: Duh. I don't have Firefox on this particular computer.
So, open a terminal window and go to (probably) /Applications/firefox. Then run the command.
eta:
Go to the directory by typing
cd Applications/firefox
(assuming I'm correct about the directory).

Question for those of you whose laptop batteries have been recalled: Did you fill out the form to get a new battery? If so, did you receive any kind of confirmation from Apple?

I just tried that search tool and it took me to some porn sites (oh my god let me wash my eyes out with soap) when looking for "Law & Order: CI."

Yikes! So...I guess there are some bugs.

FYI...re: Tivo To Go viewing problems.
I thought I had upgraded to Windows Media Player 10, but I was actually using WMP 8. Upgrading seemed to pretty much solve my problems.

I am sad. I went and bought a Pioneer DVDRW drive. But it doesn't work with the stupid customised bezel of my Vaio. I need one that has a door narrower than than the whole unit, and the button to open it bottom right (the Pioneer was one of two).
On the upside, I also got a Uniden 5.8GHz phone and a 200GB drive (and discovered I have one more HD bay than I thought).
But going back to Fry's -- ick.
