Firefox crash when typing in the rich text box (tinyMCE)

dmercier · March 29, 2009

I am using Firefox 3.0.8 (french) with Zotero 1.5b2 on windows XP. This appear both when I am typing something in a note box with zotero extension and also in the web site of Zotero, by example, when I want to write in my « profile » box.

Do someone have this problem or solution?

What do you mean by "Firefox crash"?

Have you tried disabling other Firefox extensions?

Thanks Dan Stillman.
I missed the trivial check point!
The incompatible extension is Gesso, an usefull extension for TabletPC users.
His brother Geckotip extension don't work with FF 3.0.8

I uninstalled Gesso because Zotero is more important for me.

I have the same issue. Getting rid of Gesso fixes it.

However, given that Gesso is needed to use firefox in tablet mode it would be great if they could collaborate together.

I submitted my error data. Hopefully that will help.

It looks like they fixed this in September but haven't yet released a version with the fix. You could try the 0.3h build linked from the comments there.
