Is anyone else having a problem with FatWallet Forums after upgrading to Firefox 3? I find that everything (e.g., custom view filters, etc.) displays in one long column instead of the usual neat organization, and none of the column headings line up properly.

I'll make sure this gets some attention today. Can you provide a screenshot? What OS?

Everything looks fine to me, but I'm using Classic.

Do you have any add-on themes? Mine was screwy until i went back to the default FF3 theme.

I can provide screenshots, but don't know how to post them.

Also: The problem occurs when running on 32-bit Vista Ultimate. No, not using any themes. Also, I'm running Firefox 3 on an XP Pro box, and FW looks just fine on it.

That's odd.. I am running Firefox 3 with Vista and I have no display issues. I am on Classic but I just did switch to Modern and all looks well.
I am using the Aeon theme on FF.

Do you have use the NoScript add on? Make sure javascript is allowed for FW.

Here's my list of add-ons:

Adblock Plus
Cooliris Previews
Download Statusbar
FireFTP
Forecastfox
Foxmarks Bookmark Synchronizer
IE Tab
Locationbar(2)
Tweak Network
User Agent Switcher


And yep, Javascript is enabled as far as I can tell (as shown in Tools>Options>Content).

Send in a support ticket, and you should be able to attach the screen shots to that.

I've had this problem occasionally with Firefox 3 betas, but haven't had a problem since the official release a few days ago (yet). This problem wasn't specific to FW, and was also very intermittent. Maybe 3-4 times in the last several months something like this cropped up.

If you get the "one giant, ugly un-styled column of junk" view, clear your browser's cache and try again. That should help in the meantime. If there's a way to fix a known issue with FF, the fine dev folks here will uncover it and address it.

This worked like a charm! Thanks very much. Maybe it was related to the cache being carried over from FF2 to FF3?

I was waiting to see if anyone experienced any problems with Firefox3. I read about the bugs, but hadn't yet heard of anyone who had experience any. I've got a few friends who have installed the new version, and so far, all reviews have been great.
