Ping Firefox Gurus

[den]

I've updated to Firefox 1.5.0.1

Why is it that pages that used to work under 1.0.7, like Blank Label Comics, no longer work? I see the page but the 3 x 3 navigation icon grid is just a blank. When I disable javascripting I get the icons back, but they're no longer links. The Schlock Mercenary blogunder has vanished from the main page (I can get it by going direct to the blog page). Where it used to be is a big white square. SSDD is a mess, with none of the links visible except for the prev/next ones under the comic.

I have the latest versions of Flash and Scockwave. Any suggestions?

I just got the 1.5.0.1 autoupdate (from 1.5) and the BLC site + SSDD both appear to render fine (I didn't try the other). Both use Flash for the features you mention.

If you have AdBlock, kill it. The incompetents who write it screwed up royally, and it butchers all browsers. I believe there is a newer version called something else (AdBlock Plus? something like), or you could just pick up FlashBlock and use that in conjunction with the default 'block images from server' functionality.

I seem to recall there *was* some issue with Flash but er... it seems to have gone away, for me at least...

Adblock must be the problem. I'll give that a go.
