i found a Firefox bug

23 December 2004 at 3:57 pm | General

I found a pretty funny bug in FireFox (v1.0).
When you go into any Livejournal posts and are also viewing the comments with the related blog entry, try to scroll down with your mouse-wheel or the mouse middle button + move mouse up/down.

Everytime I did this, the “frame” of the browser window scrolled up, so the lower arrow on the vertical scroll bar ended somewhere around the center-left of the screen (opposed to bottom-left).

You can view the recorded screenshot video AVI file here

Yay! My first Bugzilla submission (ID#275843)

    Your link to the bugzilla submission is broken. What’s interesting is that if I click on it, it loads up paypal.com’s webpages on my browser. Shudder.

    Has been fixed.

    Funnily, the error was this …

    the url was:
    <a href=”http://https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=275843″>

    and i corrected it to this:
    <a href=”https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=275843″>

    Seriously, the only change I made was removing the http://

    and yes, you are right, it does take us to paypal. No clue.
    I heard some stupid story about verisign converting unknown https:// url’s to fwd to paypal (some ad-gimmick)
