I've had problems with FC and Firefox on my Mac; Safari always worked. The FT MR search page was the most problematical. Figured issues for a Mac might translate, though that isn't always the case. I've been using Firefox lately with no issues...

i can pick up to 3 departure dates...but it never asks for a return date...just seems to lock up there. ..the round trip window appears to COVER up the PICK A RETURN date window....the explorer browser seems to work..but it usually crashes...i call it the BILL GATES FLU....that is why i prefer firefox....maybe a glitch in my firefox !!
thanks for the help.

To the OP...please read my post in this thread:

Hopefully that answers some of your questions. My guess is that you are trying to use farecompare for a purpose it isn't designed for. Would you mow your lawn with a shovel? Of course not...you need a completely different tool to mow lawns.
Good luck!

Has anyone noticed problems with FC lately with the main list of a airfares that comes up with the maps? The one for HOU is not updating as new fares...higher or lower....come down the pike.
