Twitter And Firefox 3.5 Not Working

This from the Washington Post.

Firefox 3.5 Not Playing Nicely With Twitter - washingtonpost.com

This is why you can never depend on just one browser.

I needed to yank out my IE today in order to do any tweeting.

So say what you want about this browser or that browser.

Just make sure you have a spare available because stuff like this happens.

I agree with you Steven software is one of the areas that I don't give my full trust you don't know when it fails you

also,for twitter I prefer off browser tools they are all listed here

Wow, that's odd. I have FF 3.5.2 and use the Plugin TwitterFox and have no issues (well, until my DSL acts up, but that's a different issue altogether).

Yes, I originally had this problem. For me, it was only if you tried using Twitter's web interface which at the time with all the Twitter apps & clients down, was all you could use. It went away after a couple days. Problem was I had to use a different browser until things got back up and running.

It's working fine on my end.

i like older versions of firefox such as 2.0.0.20

I still have a copy of Netscape 3.0 installed on an older computer... still works like a champ!

Anyone remember when Netscape 3.0 came out? It was such a better/faster browser than IE 3.0... they had Microsoft worried for a while...

Ahh... the good old days.

p.s. my FireFox (latest update installed) & Twitter are getting along ok.

I am guessing they might have fixed this issue as I have 3.5.2 and I was on just on twitter and sent a tweet.

I had problems with Internet Explorer 7 and twitter. I couldn't use the "MORE" feature at the bottom of your homepage to see more tweets. I upgraded to IE8 and now it works fine.

It sounds like I should hold off
on the FireFox upgrade until
the bugs are cleared out.

I was in the midst of doing a
lot stuff and said no to the
upgrade earlier this evening.

Thanks,
