Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

(Originally posted in BBaBB, but it's happening on more than one website, so clearly a browser issue.)

Last night before I went to bed, everything looked completely normal here, but this morning, quoted text is appearing in regular font instead of monospace. It's like Firefox is getting the t blockquote part, but ignoring the t tt

Any ideas? I'm on Firefox 1.0.7/Tiger 10.4.2, and I haven't deliberately changed any settings since last night, when it was working fine.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Your cat probably walked on your keyboard.

Although if you don't have a cat, the odds of this diagnosis being correct is somewhat less.

Um, have you restarted Firefox?

ION, any advantage to switching to Firefox from Mozilla? For some reason I seem to like Firefox more these days, but I can't come up with any concrete reasons why....

Hey. New board.

For future reference, Theodosia, in Quicktime you can actually pause the video where you want to take the screencap, click the image, and choose copy. Then paste it into any image program - I use Preview, usually, on my mac, with the "New from Clipboard" option under File. Should also work in a more edity program if you're editing.

I have, and it hasn't made any difference. I haven't restarted the computer, though.

You might even try upgrading to Firefox 1.5 RC3, maybe it'll fix it and give you a better version while you are doing it....

ION, any advantage to switching to Firefox from Mozilla?

Firefox is being developed more?

I've become a full Firefox convert, especially after loading up with some good extensions. I'm using ForecastFox, Adblock, PDF Download, Gmail Notifier, IE View, Tabbrowser Preferences, DictionarySearch, TabFX, Colorful Tabs, and Extended Statusbar.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

ION, any advantage to switching to Firefox from Mozilla?

The fact that it's not a whole browser/mail/messaging/cabana boy suite makes it leaner and meaner and less glitch-prone.
