Glow not working.

[Nethros]

Hey!

I've noticed that whenever I use Firefox, the glow that should appear on text, does not appear. Instead, it's just a colored box around the text. This works fine on Internet Exploder, but I'm not using that crap.

What's up with that?

I did use search.

You can't see this ?

 

[leprechaun]

That's what he says - that's just a highlight. Or am I mad?

 

[Nahkis]

It's highlighted, not glowing.

EDIT: Might have something to do with some of the firefox options. Not sure though.

 

[Jerky]

Mm, This has been around as long as I can remember. Strange no one has made a thread about it before..

Hugglez!

Yep, just a highlight in firefox.  Its also a consistent size, so if I made a 62 pt word with glow, the highlight would be the same size.

Internet explorer sucks.


Gah!  You guys are right!

*Screams like little girl.*

Internet explorer sucks.

How informative.

Nuh uh.
Friends don't let friends use internet explorer.

The trick is to put the [size thingie on the glow, not the other way 'round ;P

[SIZE=33px]lol[/SIZE]

lol

[SIZE=33px]lol[/SIZE]

lol

And besides, you couldn't use 62 pt anyways, 'cause the Admins would resize it =P

Hugglez!

Whatteh? It is supposed to glow? All the time I was thinking it was normal highlight, crappy but normal.

I'm gonna check it with explorer to see difference, brb.


edit

uh, ok. It's not very impressive with IE either, I quess I haven't been missing much.

 

[Merentha]

Well, Jerky schooled me. 

 

[Mackyownsa]

I tried going on IE, but then within the first ten seconds of comparison to Firefox.  Much slower, got a popup.

Clicked the X button.  So not worth going on there.

That's what us forum veterans are for!

I'll get a pic.

Edit: For you lazy/smart people who can't bother with using/don't want to use the internet explorer, I bring you, a pixhur:

Yes, yes ... there are differences between FireFox and IE and how they view things.  Headline news at 8. 

Thanks to Jerky for bothering enough to put pics up showing the difference.

At the request of Jerky, I'm re-opening this thread.

I'll warn everyone like I did him:  spam is bad, m'k?

I originally locked it as this is just a difference between IE and FireFox and really don't see a reason it would want to be discussed (outside of spam).  :shrug:
