Set wmode="transparent" for flash players. Please. – Userscripts.org
Long story short, my Firefox 3 refuses to scroll when mouse is over most Flash players ( http://forums.techguy.org/all-other-software/73... ). It doesn't happen with wmode="transparent" Flash Players. Just like that. I've tried all the textbook troubleshooting options, during last hell of a week and a half: research the problem, try to think it through, reinstall Flash (countless times), check FF safe-mode, FF blank-profile, Portable FF, crosscheck against other browsers, write to 3 support forums, carefully check npswf32.dll registry keys, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera, and at the end I came out empty-handed, exhausted and sick of it. Really sick of it.Using dynamic styling information - MDC

In this post I will cover the following topics: Understanding debug requirements Using the Mozilla preferences service to store debug mode Using Mozilla file I/O to write debug messages into a file In one of me recent post I’ve talked about how to setup a development environment in Firefox . One of the problems in developing firefox extensions and i think software in general is how to debug a problem occurring on client machine that is unreproducible at the development side.

This is a follow-up article to my recent ebook, Build Your Own Firefox Extension – an extra selection of useful tips, tricks, and hacks that I’ve collected from my experience with building extensions for Firefox, including CodeBurner , the SitePoint Reference extension. Basic knowledge of how to build a Firefox extension is assumed, so you might like to grab your free copy of the ebook first, if you’ve yet to do so already. Most of what’s here is not explicitly documented at the Mozilla Developer Center (MDC), either because it’s still on their “to do” list, or because I made it up myself. Some of it is well documented, but it’s so useful that I thought it was worth directing your attention to it anyway.Custom Toolbar Button - MDC
