Firefox 3 and DCF

I have been trying out the latest beta of Firefox and like it a lot. However I am having a issue I think when posting hyperlinks into messages on the DCF. They do not become clickable like in IE.

Is there a setting I am missing or something to give this functionality..

    That was an inssue in Firefox 2 and I thought they modified the forum so Firefox users could enter hyperlinks but I've never tried it with my Firefox 2 so I don't know for sure, I always use I.E.7 with the forum.

    I found a solution workaround. If you click on the link icon in the reply screen and then past the copied url it will post like it does in IE.. Much perfer the copy and paste like IE does but i will see what happens as time goes by.

    I normally use the link and paste option so a hyperlink appears like THIS instead of typing the url such as www.newegg.com

    I'm using FF2, and I don't remember it ever creating a link unless I use the link option.

     

    I haven't had a chance to try out FF3 yet.

    Firefox 2 worked better than IE 7 for these forums.  Link creation worked as you'd expect.

     

    I'm using Firefox 3, and I'll test it out now...

     

    Firefox!

     

    Yup, seems to work fine with the final version of Firefox 3.  Just need it to stop scaling the images :(

    ALT+V, Z, T is the solution.  That tells it to only zoom text.
