Okay. The magazine style definitely doesn't work with the easygestures extension on firefox.

At least, it doesn't for me. I want to send in a support request, but I also want to see if there's more to this glitch than I realized - after all, if I find out it doesn't work for firefox in general, it's silly to say "just with easygestures", isn't it? I've set aspiemodcomm to magazine. If people could go there (especially using firefox, I suppose) and try right-clicking on links, or to go backwards and forwards a page, I'd be happy. Just tell me what happened.

Edit: Okay, it looks to be working fine with you normal people :) Am I the only person in the world who uses easygestures? (not that that extension itself isn't glitchy at times, but this isn't a normal glitch. I blame the style)

I use firefox. Right clicking seemed normal. So did going backwards and forwards. What, exactly, went wrong?

[conuly]

I use the easygestures extension, which creates a pie menu when you right click. (Easygestures is a bit glitchy itself. When you first install it, you have to configure it twice for it to get the point).

When I go to leora's journal, or to any other journal using the magazine style, the pie menu materializes to the right of where it's supposed to be, and the buttons work erratically - open in a new tab doesn't work, close tab closes everything *but* the tab I'm in, and so on. This doesn't happen in other styles, or other sites. I've only seen it in these few journals.

Quite odd. But it seems to be working find w/ normal Firefox.

Well, I finally figured out the buttons. They're moved over slightly from where they should be. So they work, but only if I don't click them. Tres annoying.

I went to aspiemodcomm and right-clicked a few links, went forward and backward, no problems.

I'm using Firefox 1.0.2 but not with this easygestures of which you speak (I've never even heard of it).

I am sort of aware that there are extensions and plug-ins and all sorts of bells and whistles for Firefox, but I'm just barely getting used to tabbed browsing and the favorites bar and the search engines on the bar. I'm relatively new to Firefox (can you tell?).

Easygestures isn't one of the more popular extensions.

Really, the only extension you need is adblock. Download it. You'll thank me later.

Give me a screenshot of what it's doing and a page where it works normally and I may be able to guess what's going wrong. I'm not installing easygestures, though, not if it's buggy.

This is how you do a screenshot (http://www.iopus.com/guides/screenshot.htm), if you don't know how to :)

I love it dearly, but it's a pain and a half to set up because it insists on deconfiguring itself the first few times.

[conuly]

Problem. No matter how I do this, the arrow (which should be inside my pie menu) isn't showing. At all.

I use MouseGestures, and it seems to work fine with that layout.

I use this one All In One Gestures

with Firefox and it works like a charm.
