Firefox/Leopard + aa.com problem
 

anyone using Firefox 2 (2.0.0.9) and Leopard 10.5.0 or 10.5.1?


I notice that when I use aa.com and try to access some https links it times out- the status bar reads "waiting for as00.estara.com"

i am wondering if it is choking on an SSL cert of something?

anyone else notice this?

Safari doesn't have a problem, and I didn't have this problem w/ Firefox on Tiger

No such problems with FF and 10.5.1

See if you can access http://www.estara.com/ just to check the DNS

And check preferences to see you aren't blocking any cookies from estara.com

They provide some of the javascript for the site

yeah DNS is fine and so are prefs

interestingly though if i open the error console and look at it, estara.com is generating a number of JS exceptions...

I'm using Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.9) Gecko/20071025 Firefox/2.0.0.9 with no problems. Is it time to try clearing your cache?

yeah i have cleared my cache and all cookies etc

it only happens on FF 2 on Leopard

FF 2 on XP is fine

Not much help since the OP is using Leopard and you're using XP.

I'll agree it is not a FF problem in an XP environement. I use FF on AA.com each day and I have no known problems.

It's their "Click to call" functionality, which is handled by Estara.

I'm not using any of it, but I just happened to read over in the Southwest forum that someone had a problem with WN's website not showing some columns and it turned out to be a Mac FF bug and upgrading to 2.0.0.10 fixed it. Your bug doesn't sound the same offhand, but since that version fixed one bug, you may want to try it to see if it fixes yours too.

I suggest you ask on a Mac forum
