new tags using Firefiox

Posted by NikkiT2 on December 24, 2004, at 10:22:50

We've just started using Mozilla Firefox at home, and the new tags behave very strangely!

When I open the page in IE, I get the new tags, but they go after I have visited and new ones appear. But in Firefox they don't clear. I don't mean every message is always marked as new, but all posts since my last visit using IE are marked as new.

I checked my settings in Firefox, and I have it set to accept all cookies.

Strange!

Maybe Firefox and IE don't share their cookies?

No.. you misunderstood, sorry.

If I check it using IE, then the next time I only get new flags on new posts, whether I check with IE or Firefox.

But if I *only* use Firefox, none of the new tags are removed how ever many times I refresh. I get new tags on new messages, but also the ones for the previous visit.

Oh, sorry. Does it update the cookie, can you check that?
