SWEB and Firefox 3.6
Firefox 3.6 was recently introduced as an upgrade to the Mozilla Foundation's popular 3.5.x version browser. A move from one sub-version of a browser to another is not generally cause for concern, as revisions between sub-versions are often slight. However, in the move from 3.5.x to 3.6 Firefox has changed enough that there are some compatibility issues with SWEB.
This document is intended to serve as a reference point for the incompatibilities as they are uncovered. The incompatibilities are ordered roughly by level of severity, though this is obviously a relative measure.
Unable to upload assets
Description: When one goes to Create > Assets or Manage > Assets > Create New asset the fields to select an asset from your hard drive are unavailable in Firefox 3.6
Workaround: none at present. Suggest the use of a different browser until this issue is resolved.
Difficulty editing forms
Description: When one goes to Manage > Form Data and clicks on the name of an existing form, it does not open for editing.

account of an existing user, if one is using Firefox 3.6 nothing
happens.
Workaround: none at present. Suggest the use of a different browser until this issue is resolved.
