Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 251121

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Muhammad]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0

When I try to load http://gmail.google.com/gmail in Firefox 1.0 I get an error
saying some kind of file can't be found, however gmail loads fine in IE and even
in Mozilla. The other problem (I think they're linked as they appeared at the
same time) is that a lot (not all) of images don't load, and the flash elements
on http://www.homestarrunner.com don't work either.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. load the webpages listed above in IE
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
In the case of gmail I get the error and in the case of other websites certain
things don't load.

Expected Results:  
Loaded the gmail webpage or loaded the images.

Do you have "Load Images From Originating Website Only" turned on in
Tools->Options->Browsing ?

Attachment: this is the error I get when trying to load gmail

Attachment: shows unloaded embedded flash files/content

this is an example of what happens when I visit http://www.homestarrunner.com.
On the left is Firefox, on the right is Mozilla where it actually loads.
Similar things happen with images, I would have screenshotted that but it's
fairly simple, they don't load and if they have an alt-text that shows instead.

That seems to have sorted it out.

Thanks!

Any idea what was wrong, though?
