I am fairly new to firefox and I have found several major problems with it. I am running firefox 1.5.0.1. If I try to sell something with ebay, I cannot upload pictures of my ads to sell (works fine with IE). Now I just found out that I cannot pay bills with online billpay using wachovia's web site (this too works fine with IE). Any suggestions on why this problem is happening?

Some sites just will not work properly in Firefox ... for example:
I go to tmobile. com .. jobs section .. all ok so far, until I hit the
login button .. then the site just dies ... works ok in IE

Personally, I need to have a browser that works all the time like IE does. Just now I tried to revise an ad that I am running on ebay, it would not take the update, so I had to use IE. Very annoying.

Also, Firefox won't do Rich Formatting on Yahoo Mail
and also on the Dell Forums you can't format or attach
They will get it fixed sooner or later ... or it may be the
website itself that needs recoding to be fully compatible
with all the browsers (IE, Firefox, Opera, Netscape, Thunderbird)

Get the view in IE tab extension for firefox...
Why get up and go to the fridge when you never have to leave the sofa...?

dajogejr ... I have the IE Tab extension in firefox .. the latest version
The T-mobile site just will not work properly with Firefox
What I really need is for when I put that url into firefox, that it will
actually open IE to view the site ... probably a problem with the
way the web site was coded

l had ongoing problems with firefox until it dawned on me to go back to Opera.
Simply the best.

There's an open in IE extension, too...
Right click on the page, view in IE.
For the 5% of the pages I view that don't work properly with fox, they work just fine in their own IE tab...every time.

If you insist on sticking to Firefix, I would have to also recommend getting the "open IE" extension that dajogejr recommended. It makes it convenient to get the page you are viewing ip in IE in one click.
I also have to agree with the lodge in recommending Maxthon. I think you'll find Maxthon when used with antivirus / antispyware apps is a much better experience.
eg: IE6 w/ Maxthon plus Spywareblaster is an excellent combo.

I do have that extension .. it just will not work with the site in question
... and yes, I did check the option on the last page of setting to use IE
... and the site url is in the added list

I have FireFox, there are times when I click on a link or try and go to a new website, and I get a "no data....." window pop up. If I try it again, it sometimes will go through the second time or repeat the "no data..." comment. It will never do this more than 3 times though, just sort of strange.
