2011-03-29 11:10:43 - Firefox 4 on OSX bug
Hello,

Have just upgraded to Firefox 4.0 on OSX and discovered an annoying little bug.

If you click on one of the tabs on the right, 'Steer', 'Boats', 'Chat' etc, then move the mouse on to the map view, the map moves as if you were holding down the left mouse button.

It only happens if you click one of the non-active tabs. And only if you move your mouse onto the map before clicking somewhere else in the tab.

Hope that is a clear description of the bug. I haven't tested it on a Windows machine, but the the same bug appears on both MacBookPro and MacPro.

Thanks

Please shout if you need more info. I have screen recording to demo the issue, you should be able to hear when I click, and when I don't!

Hello thcousins,

I can't reproduce this one on my current system but will have a look and see if this is a Firefox 4 issue. What flash version are you running atm? I can't come up with a good explanation for this and we will have a look.

Red Eye - Myth of Malham 2025

In 1947, Hugh McLean & Sons of Gourock, Scotland built a radical racing yacht for John Illingworth, soon-to-be Commodore of the RORC, to a design by Laurent Giles. With a masthead rig, giving her ‘free’ sail area per the rules of the time, and short overhangs reducing pitching, Myth of Malham went on to win The Fastnet that year and again in 1949, and to compete in numerous Admiral's Cups. In 1958, in honour of the yacht, the Myth of Malham race was conceived - a mini-Fastnet to the first lighthouse on a rock west of Cowes, Eddystone, rather than the second, to be held in non-Fastnet years. IRL this year it has been raced already, but this stops us not from “Red Eye” racing its online 230nm in Fareast 31Rs, leaving how to deal with the Isle of Wight open to your own discretion.

Africa by Sea 2025 - Maputo to Mogadishu


The fifth leg of our exploration of Africa By Sea takes us north along the length of the Continent’s succulent sub-tropical and tropical Indian Ocean coast. Much fought over by traders and colonists both well-before and after a Portuguese expedition under the command of Vasco da Gama first sailed there from Europe back in the 16th century, it is yet to be properly explored as a yachting destination. With plenty of islands off- and inshore, small and very large, there is much to interrupt your 1900nm voyage and visit in your Swan 65, from Maputo to Mogadishu! Race #1858
