    With Firefox 4 getting closer and closer to launch I am finding with the Beta that selecting from the menu at the top is proving mighty hard.

    The home, content , design etc menu.

    I find that when I click an item and then go to move down into the list the drop down will disappear like I have moved off from the list, I can sometimes gets it to work but most of the time I have to admin in Safari.

    Anyone else finding this ?

    Thanks

    Yah the control panel is pretty much broken in FF beta, I have to switch to Chrome to get anything done.

    Today I am working in Firefox 4 (official release yesterday) and cannot get many of the dropdown lists to work in Firefox.  I confirm that this is not working very well in FF4.  Seems strange that something would work fine in FF3 but not in 4.  Hopefully the FF team will fix whatever the issues are.  Until then, I’ll have to use Safari for admin use.

    I’ve been using FF4/WinXP for the last few weeks and have noticed the drop down disappears before I can move my cursor over it - BUT only sometimes, plus I find this sort of behaviour on several sites, not just the EECP.

    My 10p is on it being a quirk with Firefox 😊

    @PinkeyeGraphics pointed this link out on Twitter: https://support.ellislab.com/bugs/detail/15417/

    Apparently adjusting the CSS of the CP fixes some aspects of this until the next EE update.  I also have had some issues with the dropdowns not even being triggered and the template manager not even being functional, but that was on a 2.0 beta site that still needs to be updated, so I guess fingers are pointed at me on that one 😊

    I’m on FF 4.0.1 on a MAC and experience the same issue with the drop down disappearing in EECP. I’m running EE 2.1.3.
