Firefox Question?

16 years ago

Reading the thread regarding Java, I followed the recommendation to check FireFox Error Console. It is filled with the following warnings:

Unknown Property '_height' Declaration dropped.

Unknown Property 'zoom' Declaration dropped.

Selector expected. Ruleset ignored due to bad sector.

Map key is not defined.

hbx strip is not defined.

TL is not defined.

There are pages and pages of these messages with no explanation.

Anyone have any idea what this means?

Thanks,

Jane

It means FireFox didn't understand the way a piece of a webpage was written. Instead, it displayed the parts of the page it could and ignored the instructions it didn't understand. And it entered a notation in the error log letting you know that it didn't understand something.

The Error Console just lets you access the error logs.
Unless you are a programmer working on FireFox,
the error logs would be virtually useless to you.

If you click Clear in the Error Console, they'll all go away until you start visiting more websites.

that is NOT the same as easylist and easyprivacy. they are both right there at the link provided in zep's post. Here it is just scroll to the 2 yellow lines and on the far right click on the add to ABP to add it to your ad block plus EasyList Subscriptions to get the latest dev build of adblock plus which seems not to have those issues go to this link and select the one titled 00latest.xpi which should be the 3rd line Index of /devbuilds/adblockplus/ after installing it in your firefox you need to restart firefox to activate it then get the subscriptions. you should be able to install that one then once you have that adblock plus installed go to that link I gave you for the easylist and easyprivacy and add those to it.

Tools/Options/Content you can set the font and size, just left click on default font or size and you'll get a dropdown. as far as I know it will stay.

You probably got a bad download. Try downloading it again and starting over.

Thanks guys! Why do they put stuff like that to confuse and scare us poor illiterates?

Why can't computers act more like TV's or Radios? Just click the channel and the station appears. Change channels easily.

I wonder what it will be like 20 yrs from now?

Thanks again,
Jane
