Hi all,

I am runnig FF in full screen mode and using "Try Again" addin to auto reconnect if the comms connection to the server has an issue. This works fine on my Vista 64 bit machine but if I run it on an XP machine (which is the better choice for this task) I get an alert popup when the connection fails.

Is there a way of stopping this type of alert.

Many thanks in advance.

Dereck

hey navex, you can enter about:config into the location-bar, confirm the info-notification, search for the preference called browser.xul.error_pages.enabled and toggle it to true - then the connection errors should not be shown in a popup dialog box anymore, but in the normal error page.
