Talk:Firefox bugs affecting MediaWiki

Bugzilla search
Searching for "wikipedia" on b.m.o in the short description (in advanced mode) with a resolution of "---" returns 12 bugs; a few appear to be dups. The most commonly reported problem appears to be Bug 350684 – Print preview of Wikipedia page hangs if scale factor other than 100%, which may be a dup of bug 266681 – Print preview crashes reproducible on validated (!) CSS 2.0 page. Others worth looking into include:


 * General layout problem:
 * Bug 373427 – enhance: css float+clear similar to IE
 * Bug 9101 – Break lines at soft hyphens (&shy;) and display hyphens if line broken (due to land in ff3)

 * Spellchecker
 * Bug 69687 - Spellchecker: Multiple language design - Spellchecker doesn't distinguish different projects, so it's impossible to set different projects different languages of it :( --WarX 08:13, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Page move
I think a better approach is to use this page to gather bugs that affect MediaWiki. Once we have enough we can order them in terms of priority and submit the most important 10 bugs to Mozilla as planned. Have reworded intro to this affect. Hope that's OK with everyone. --HappyDog 10:30, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks, the new title is much less intimidating. Jayvdb 11:18, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Firefox 3
There is one bug in the "Closed" section that is marked as fixed in ff3, Bug 9101 is due to land in ff3, and firefox 3 is exhibiting unconfirmed critical problems rendering Main Page (Bug 375012). Do we have a test suite that could be used by Wikipedians to verify that FF3 nightlies work correctly for all required Wikimedia functionality? Jayvdb 13:05, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
