    Re: Using Firefox (printing clickable images) —Steve Bliss
   (...) I'd blame mapblast, rather than firefox. On mapquest, I get the normal context menu for images. On mapblast, I get the short menu you listed (above). :/ Steve (20 years ago, 21-Dec-04, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
   
        Re: Using Firefox (printing clickable images) —Larry Pieniazek
   (...) I don't want to blame anyone, my question was "how do I get FF to do X" rather than "FF won't do X, it's broken". I really want to switch but this feature requires me to use IE so I'm 98% FF using not 100%, if you see what I mean. (and I know, (...) (20 years ago, 21-Dec-04, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

     (...) Heh. I always heard that as "DOS ain't done 'til Lotus don't run". Steve (20 years ago, 21-Dec-04, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
   
        Re: Using Firefox (printing clickable images) —Dan Boger
     (...) Right. But I agree with Steve - I was checking on mapquest, so I have to assume MB is doing something that breaks it specifically. It also breaks the form - hitting 'enter' doesn't submit it, I had to click on the 'submit' button. (20 years ago, 21-Dec-04, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
    
         Re: Using Firefox (printing clickable images) —Larry Pieniazek
     (...) You mean like on Peeron.com/inv in the search box before you changed it? I thought that was a feature, not a break... but ok, maybe there's no way around this. I'll post the harder one when I have some time. (20 years ago, 21-Dec-04, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
    
         Re: Using Firefox (printing clickable images) —Dan Boger
     (...) Did Peeron even have that problem? I thought we had it the other way around - you had to hit enter, because I didn't have a submit button there. Breaking 'enter' takes effort. Omitting the 'submit' button is just forgetful. (20 years ago, 21-Dec-04, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
    
         Re: Using Firefox (printing clickable images) —Larry Pieniazek
      (...) Na, it was the other way round. I used to always hit enter, go away and come back and wonder why there were still no results, then remember I needed to have pressed submit. Used to drive me CRAZY. No way would I forget that. I could swear that (...) (20 years ago, 21-Dec-04, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

     (...) Yeah that's the way I remember it too. And apparently so does history: (URL) (20 years ago, 21-Dec-04, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
    
         Re: Using Firefox (printing clickable images) —Larry Pieniazek
     (...) Now I remember what it was... you had to hit enter WHILE the cursor and focus were IN the entry box. Just typing some number then going elsewhere on the screen then hitting enter didn't work. I do sincerely remember having that not work for me (...)
