Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

In firefox 2 when I logged in my school website It worked ok, but now, in firefox 3 (in windows xp and ubuntu 8.04) when I log in it doesn't get any information, with other browsers like IE 6, 7, Safari and Konqueror, I logged in succesfully.

I tought it was a bug from my school website but they use the IBM software Websphere and they told me that it was a problem from the browser.

Ubuntu 8.04 and Windows XP SP2 and SP3.

Thank you for reporting this bug. Because you have the same problem on Windows XP and Ubuntu this should be handled upstream.

Some websites including my online banking website and travel site firstchoice.co.uk seem unable to store data fed in in Firefox 3. I cannot log into my bank, and the Firstchoice website does not allow me to access specific holidays, but returns me to a general input page. Ff2 has always worked perfectly with these sites and continues to do so with all the same settings in preferences.

 Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue for you. Can you try with the latest Ubuntu release? Thanks in advance.

The problem was initially with FF 3.0 so I reinstalled FF 2 alongside. The bug was then perpetuated by a conflict between the two FF versions, and eventually came to affect FF 2. The bug finally disappeared when I removed FF 2, so must have been resolved in an update to FF 3.
