I have the same issue.....
Was also posted in Kubuntu's forum My question is: Why when I run Firefox as 'user' selected highlighting WILL NOT work? but when I run Firefox (same file) as 'Root' selected highlighting WILL work? This project is for a "Community Food/Clothing Bank" with 11 units in a network using WinXP/Firefox - if I can get this highlighting fixed I can move all 11 to KDE-Kubuntu/Firefox. I have made a test Web page, from one of the check-out-desks pages with 3 HTML '...<select><option>...' as columns when you click on a 'option' it is highlighted BUT it will NOT stay highlighted when you click a 'option' in one of the other columns or outside of the columns when you run: usr/lib/firefox-3.0.5/firefox as 'user'. When you run the same file as 'Root' all selected options stay highlighted. (Note: Firefox's 'skin' is not the same when run as 'user' or 'Root') I am new to KDE-Kubuntu and I think something in the setup needs to changed but what and where I do not know, and that is what I need help with. Here is data I have that looks to me - it is the same as 'user' or 'Root' Run as 'user' Firefox Help/About shows: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.5) Gecko/2008121621 Ubuntu/8.04 (hardy) Firefox/3.0.5 Run as 'root' Firefox Help/About shows: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.5) Gecko/2008121621 Ubuntu/8.04 (hardy) Firefox/3.0.5 Run as 'user' Web site shows: [HTTP_USER_AGENT] => Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.5) Gecko/2008121621 Ubuntu/8.04 (hardy) Firefox/3.0.5 Run as 'root' Web site shows: [HTTP_USER_AGENT] => Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.5) Gecko/2008121621 Ubuntu/8.04 (hardy) Firefox/3.0.5 >From 'log' file: [ 0.000000] Linux version 2.6.24-22-generic (bui...@vernadsky) (gcc version 4.2.3 (Ubuntu 4.2.3-2ubuntu7)) #1 SMP Mon Nov 24 18:32:42 UTC 2008 (Ubuntu 2.6.24-22.45-generic) >From Help - About KDE 3.5.10 K Desktop environment 3.5.10 Here is a test Web site and the code used on it URL for online test [url=http://www.bobdistler.com/ccs_test/test_select.html]http://www.bobdistler.com/ccs_test/test_select.html[/url] Code used on test page 'test_select.html'. <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"> <title> Test Firefox select-option-highlighted </title> </head> <body> <form id="postForm" name="postForm" action="" method="get"> <table id="tSelect" name="tSelect"> <tbody> <tr> <td> <select name="tCatalog" size="17"> <option selected="yes"> Select </option> <option>Adult</option> <option>Boy</option> <option>Boy Infant</option> <option>Boy Toddler</option> <option>Child</option> <option>Girl</option> <option>Girl Infant</option> <option>Girl Juniors</option> <option>Girl Teenager</option> <option>Girl Toddler</option> <option>Household</option> <option>Male Teenager</option> <option>Mens</option> <option>Misses</option> <option>N/A</option> <option>Womens</option> </select> </td> <td> <select name="tItem" size="43"> <option selected="yes"> Select </option> <option>Accessory</option> <option>Adult Pampers</option> <option>baby pampers</option> <option>Belt</option> <option>Blanket</option> <option>Bra</option> <option>Coat</option> <option>Dress or Skirt</option> <option>Gloves</option> <option>Hankiy</option> <option>hat</option> <option>Jacket</option> <option>Jean Shorts</option> <option>Jeans</option> <option>Nylons or Tights</option> <option>Onesies</option> <option>Pads</option> <option>Panti liners</option> <option>Pants</option> <option>Pillow</option> <option>PJ</option> <option>purses</option> <option>Robe</option> <option>Scarf</option> <option>Sheetset</option> <option>shirt</option> <option>Shoes</option> <option>Shorts</option> <option>Sleeper</option> <option>Slip</option> <option>slippers</option> <option>Socks</option> <option>Suit</option> <option>Sweaters</option> <option>Tampons</option> <option>Tie</option> <option>Tops</option> <option>towels</option> <option>Undershirt</option> <option>Underwear</option> <option>Vest</option> <option>Wipes</option> </select> </td> <td> <select name="tQty" size="11"> <option selected="yes">0</option> <option>1</option> <option>2</option> <option>3</option> <option>4</option> <option>5</option> <option>6</option> <option>7</option> <option>8</option> <option>9</option> <option>10</option> </select> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </form> </body> </html> -- Won't select multiple selects https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/245103 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
