I'm a fire fox user, BUT maybe you should of used this topic http://www.crankeye.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=4049 which is very simplar instead of making a new one

[King Anesis]

Probably because its almost 2 weeks old. Firefox it bes.

[AlianceKing2007]

Well I used both for a 50/50 split way between them both.

Firefox most of the time, but some things require IE

Read it and cry, dumb Firefox users.

Firefox is so secure, it blocks even the smallest secure feature of a site!

Therefore: Firefox = CRAP!

IE is much better! It's middle safe, but can view everything.

[Ramiro]

Well, everyone says that Firefox os better then IE, but I always used IE, so my vote goes to IE!!!!

[TheBodge]

FireFox will only block a site if it is craply made and the code is fucked, maybe it will act as a good guild line for people to stop making w@nk sites.

wow... i am shocked you don't even realize that ie comes with windows...
everyone got windows...everyone got i.e, as simple as that
as sad as it seems a huge part of the internet users are people who don't understand what's the diffrense between firefox and ie so "bah ie is already installed, why would i dl another browser?!"
or maybe they aren't even aware of firefox being out there...
or maybe they are over 30 and are considered "too old to know what's best for them"
or too young to go anywhere but porn sites...
and so on

if they asked around the people who know what firefox is and what i.e is then it will have like 60% for ff and 40% for ie or something around that, likely to have more %s to ff

as for the blocking, blocking viruses and pop ups = good
letting them go = not good

when it comes to blocking stuff you don't want to be blocked, yeah that sort of thing happen but only in websites that are designed to support only ie and are careless about ff, and if you want pop ups (cus sometimes it's a registering pop up and so on) you can always use the "allow pop ups from this site" thingy

but yeah, sadly ie is still needed but i rarely ever use it and i hope it will change asap

Lol, that's not based on how many people that got it. It's based on how many people actually uses it. And look at poor firefox's percent.

Oh yeah: Firefox blocks fucked up codes, and such, but thebodge was the guy who gave me the code for the forum on the mainpage, so he's to blame of the Firefox incompatibility. Also, my server is to blame, because it does not have a firefox supporting system installed.

And when back in FF, gimme a code for making my site availible to firefox, and i will stop bothering ya... or there isn't anyone? Oo

A firefox supporting system? Rikkuholic doesnt know what he's on about :roll: Your server doesnt need anything extra installed to "support" Firefox.

I don't see alot of things on your site because I installed a nice firefox plugin - AdBlock. Give adblock a URL and it'll stop firefox loading anything from that URL, making it excellent at blocking ads. You can use wildcards too, so, say, just put in *syndication*, and you'll never ever see a google ad again

So when I go to martinsgamegallery.net I only see a black background and some text. :whoa: The reason that the forum doesnt appear to us firefox users ie because you don't use a standard-compliant iframe. You do for your news:

Code Select Expand

<IFRAME SRC="http://www.martinsgamegallery.net/news.htm" WIDTH=450 HEIGHT=100>

But you don't for your forums, you include the iframe for your forums on the same line as the div object that contains it, which is wrong. At least I think, not being very knowledgeable at HTML. It is a shame; I don't know what I'm going to do now I can't see your forum  :cry:

And put the browser to accept Martinsgamegallery.net and it'll work. i just found it out.

I put up a link, in the news box, if you didn't notice.

EDIT: Ok, i admit it. When i used Dreamwevaer, it worked perfectly. You're allowed. Come on, laugh!

FireFox all the way but on a side note does anyone use Opera it's pretty good too.

Firefox at home and IE at school. IE does really suck when you get used to open new tabs instead of opening new windows all the time. Another plus with firefox is that its safer and faster ^^

You can use Firefox at school without it being installed there if you use the portable version. (that is if you have an mp3 player or USB drive or something you can run it off) Or I guess you could copy it into your hard drive space at school, but at my last college you weren't allowed exe's in your files.

First of all, the computer are inside black boxes so I can't put in any USB or mp3 player.
2'nd you're not allowed to install things at my school, and you get banned from the computer rooms if you do so, and even if you won't need to install it the school deletes all uneccesary files that ain't about school work regulary.
Thanks for trying anyway.
