hey guys
i just found out two probs in firefox. one is that until and unless a page is completely loaded, the links on that site do not work..??
and secondly, when a link is clicked, it automatically opens up in a new window rather than in a new tab...

solutions anyone??? :?: :?:

Choose Options in the Tools menu and try resetting your settings.

Or try deleting the .ini file in the programs folder.

something like this occurs with me too
if i've specified a proxy which is currently down ..
then .. it shows an error .. that proxy is not working
and then there is nothing in the address bar.
so i have to go through the link again after changing the proxy ..
any idea how can change this behaviour..
( cos in ie , atleast the address stays in the address bar if no connection is established )

The second problem may be solved using "Single Window " extension :smile:
