    Hey, I’m cleaning up my portfolio website and this time arround I want my javascripts to work in firefox as well.

    So does anyone know how to get your javascripts working in firefox?

    Here’s an example, a widget from twitter:
    (It’s working in IE on my website: https://www.blaatjes.nl)

    <script charset="utf-8" src="https://widgets.twimg.com/j/2/widget.js">

    hello…

    it works in ie and firefox for me – perhaps you have a 3rd party plugin that is blocking access (like ghostery or the likes)?

    Really? That’s great! XD I actually don’t have firefox, but a friend of my took a look at it and said that it wasn’t working with firefox. But I guess I won’t worry about that anymore. ^^
    Thanks for taking a look at it! orz

    hello…

    i’d still have them check to see if they can disable a plugin and get it to work – one not working and one working is not a very sizable test pool… 🙂

    one thing to look at is that you are not typing your javascript scripts to ‘type=”text/javascript”. This should be done for the linked(accompaning) file as well as the embedded file.

    W3C states that “Authors should specify the default scripting language for all scripts in a document”

    without correct script typing, it is possible that some browsers might not recognize what language the script is written in, and therefore won’t be able to execute the script.

    example:
    <script type="text/javascript">
