Firefox 3 is rapidly nearing release. What is Telerik's road map for achieving compatibility with Firefox 3? Using Prometheus Q3, I see some breaking problems with the combo box control. It seems to be a JavaScript issue, probably due to Fx3's support of JS 1.8. I have some large customers that are wondering when we'll be supporting Fx3, and I would like to see where you guys are at with that. Thanks!

Hi Jeremy,

Thank you for your question. We will provide support for Firefox 3 once the browser is officially released. Currently we don't provide support for browsers in Beta stage.
What is the exact problem you have experienced? We noticed some problems with autocomplete and animations which will be fixed for the official release of Firefox 3. Is there anything else we should be aware of?

Regards,
Helen

As a sidebar, and just FYI, as I realise IE8 is only in Beta1:

The Telerik site uses the compatibility metatag <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=7" />  -- to toggle IE7 mode on IE8.

However, I've encountered a number of places where IE8 doesn't render as per IE7, whether toggled to IE7 mode manually or programmatically by the meta tag.

"My Purchases" in Client.Net is an example... an IE "hack" being fooled by the client string ??

My own sites have a couple of minor Telerik issues with IE8, but nothing that is a showstopper and won't wait for the final IE8 release before I try to resolve. The panbelbars and item links are something I'll need to review, as IE8 sees them inheriting some attributes I didn't get with IE6/7 or with the other browsers... which is probably a result of lazy CSS on my part.

Helen,

In Firefox 3 using the Vista skin, after I drop down a combo box, clicking the drop arrow does not close the combo box. The only way to close the box is to click away from it somewhere else on the page. Once you have done this (and here is the critical problem), you can no longer interact with the combo box any more, ever, until you reload the entire page. This includes dropping the combo box down as well as typing in the text box.

My web application is extremely complicated, so it's possible that the issue is caused by an interaction between buggy components, but the issue only appears in Fx3 and only in the Prometheus combo box (not the "classic" Telerik combo box).

Thanks!

Hi Jeremy,

Thank you for the report. I will made our developers aware of the issue and hope it will be solved once the Firefox 3.0 is officially released. I hope it is not a major show stopper for you.


Sincerely yours,
