The new beta build have a problem of 'ghosting' in which the 3rd tab bar line stays even if no tabs are open. The problem is not there with the 3.8.6 version at Mozilla site.



Thought it was an issue with ClassicCompact but apparently its not.

No. It works perfectly fine here. Most likely a conflict with a theme/ext. you're using (is that Colorful tabs on your shot?). Try disabling everything but TMP and see if you still have the issue.
Also, please change your signature as it should contain only info related to Fx and/or TMP. Thanks.

You said the TT is 'a bit techy' for you, so i'm giving it to you in easy to follow portions . After you disable all, enable them one by one till the issue reoccurs.

@signature. The forum has been updated just a few days ago and not everything is up yet. A link to the forum rules will be placed at the top shortly. But thanks for not arguing

First, you are chipping in to help with what are FREE pieces of software that you did not have to buy or write yourself.

Second, onemen does not know what extensions and themes you have. Even if you provide him a list of them, he would have to set up a profile with just those extensions and themes and then go through troubleshooting to find what, if any conflicts exist. Also, he would not necessarily have the same settings as you have.

Third, 15 extensions is not a lot. I have well over 30 and I can take a few minutes to ID an extension that may be conflicting with another.

Because of your specific issue, you may only need to switch to the default theme, restart Fx and see if the problem remains. If it is that theme, onemen can then see if it is TMP or the theme that is the issue.

You must not remember the biblical statement of "Give a man and fish and he eats for a day. Teach him how to fish, and he eats for a lifetime." makonda and I have, indeed, provided you the constructive responses you claim to seek and yet all you can do is complain in a vein of "Why do I have to do the work?"

Do you realize that in all the time you have spent writing these complaining posts you could have finished troubleshooting your issue and greatly helped onemen if, indeed, the issue is TMP-related?

If you are not willing to help, you won't be getting any help from makonda or me and onemen won't have the information he needs to get to the root cause, if, in fact, it is in TMP.

The ball is in your court. You can either do the mature thing and get to work or you can just go away and live with the issue.

I do not know why I bother, but here goes.

How have I NOT given you instructions on what to do? I told you almost right from the start to go to and follow the troubleshooting steps at the link in my signature. All you have done is complain about having to do that as if it is just too hard for you to do. And, as I have said before, if you had just gone and followed the instructions instead of writing all these posts complaining about having to do that, you would be done with the troubleshooting and onemen would then know which extension or theme might be conflicting with TMP, if, in fact, there is a conflict.

If anyone is "copping an attitude", it is you for not wanting to even try following the troubleshooting steps and learning how to do it in the process.

What have I said will happen when you report here which extension(s) or theme(s) that you find conflict with TMP?

Aren't you guys having a good saturday morning?

Christopher Rose,
onemen is the TMP developer.
makondo (me) - forum moderator, have nothing to do with the ext. development, just a traffic controller around here and TMP tester/user since its day one.
Ray - is a very knowledgeable long time Mozilla/TMP tester/user. I take his advice w/out second guessing.

onemen is on vacation til the end of the month. So, unless he has nothing better to do, he might not respond til then and Ray and i are trying to help to the best of our knowledge.
Now, hope that's settled.
Ray did give you a good explanation of the troubleshooting steps and told you to do exactly what onemen would. Once you figure which of your exts./themes conflicts, it would be beneficial if you can post any errors you might see when the 2 conflicting exts. are enabled and the problem occurs. This helps to pin the correct block(-s) of code and get to the bottom of it faster. The steps to enable the error console are in the troubleshooting tips linked in our signatures. If you need more help with that, post and we will help. If you don't see any errors, it would help to at least know which ext. conflicts.
TMP works perfectly fine for me, Ray and millions out there. If you experience an issue, it's most likely due to your setup and nobody can figure it out w/out your help.
Notice also that extensions are not plugins and you don't have to (nor can) disable plugins. Just your extensions. If you don't want to create a new clean profile, try disabling top half of your extensions and see if problem remains. If it does, re-enable that half and disable the bottom half. Then enable them one by one, etc.
What would bring you closer to a solution is posting the conflicting extension(-s) next time you post. I think we all had enough arguments by now about finding it.

And for the record. We understand you're stressed having this issue with your browsing. Nonetheless, Ray is a respected member and contributor on this forum. Next time you tell him to 'shot up', i will ban your account.

When I right click a bookmark and select "Open in a New Tab" the tab will display "Connecting". The first character then gets corrupted while the page is loading and the tab displays "Xonnecting" even after the page is fully loaded and remains that way util I either click on another tab or hover over the Firefox button. If I do this, the corrupted tab refreshes and displays the correct text for the tab. I can repeat the same behavior on both my PC's. If I left click a bookmark the tab displays fine.

If I disable TMP the new tab of course also displays "Connecting" until the page is fully loaded and then refreshes the tab text with the page title as it should.

Windows 7 Ultimate 32Bit, FF 4.01, TMP 0.3.8.6.

Sorry, that's ... pretty funny. I've never seen this. I'd suggest a clean profile or disable all exts. and enable one by one til the issue reappears.
Please read the troubleshooting tips linked in my signature.

(also, disable all styles and GM scripts if you have any. That's why a clean profile is just a better way to find what's causing this).

Glad you had a laugh ... Maybe I didn't explain too well. The first letter of the word "Connecting" gets corrupted with the first letter of the tab title, like so:


I have found the cause to be this code in my userchrome.css :

/* Make Non-Current Tabs Transparent */
tab:not([selected="true"])
{
background-image:-moz-linear-gradient(
rgba(255,255,255,0), rgba(255,255,255,0)
) !important;
text-shadow: #D9DCFF 1px 1px 2px, #D9DCFF -1px 1px 2px, #D9DCFF 1px -1px 2px, #D9DCFF -1px -1px 2px !important;
}

tab:not([selected="true"]):hover
{
background-image:-moz-linear-gradient(
rgba(255,255,255,0.75), rgba(255,255,255,0.25)
) !important;
}


The culprit is the "text-shadow" line. If I disable that the problem is solved. However the issue only occurs when TMP is enabled. If I disable TMP the word "Connecting" still gets corrupted but refreshes after page load is done and is then replaced with the tab title.

Can anything be done in TMP? Or can you help out fixing my css please?

I was having problems with TMP+ and Colorful Tabs in that I lost my TMP+ text formatting in the tabs. Suffice to say, Binary Turf were not forthcoming at all (my thread in Binary Turf) in responding to my crisis so a bit of searching around and I found that Chroma Tabs Plus (Development Version 3.0.0b1) works well with TMP+ in Firefox 5.

I'll check the other versions later.

Yeah, I noticed the bump in Version Number when I updated Minefield (Nightly) earlier.

Added a newer version to Binary Turf.
