Talking of tantrums....
...I have having insane problems with Facebook and Firefox. I'm hoping someone can think of something I haven't tried yet. Something that won't involve me finding either the Facebook or Firefox developers and stabbing them with a rusty spork :P
The problem before today: Complete failure to let me use applications. I would continuously get the error "Facebook has detected blah this address blah in a way that will never resolve" and advised this was often caused by failure to accept cookies. Except it's SET to accept cookies. i've even got Facebook listed in the exceptions as an "allow", but nope, Firefox and/or Facebook refused to believe me. Clearing the cache would sometimes let me get onto an application for a while but after a period of time, if I tried to use the app again, I'd get the same error.
THe problem today: Facebook won't even let me log in! Note I can log in FINE on IE, just not on Firefox. On Firefox today, if I go to the facebook page, I'm told I need to log in. If I log in, I just get the log in page again. No error message, no wrong password message, nuffink. Just a continuous refusal to show me anything other than the log in page.
It seems like something is blocking ..something.. but I'm fucked if I know what. I've tried all the troubleshooting pages on mozilla's support sites but no joy. Uninstalled and reinstalling firefox didn't help either. Clearing all the cookies hasn't worked.
I'm at my wits end. Yeh, I can use IE for Facebook but it's feckin' annoying. Firefox worked FINE until about a week ago! There was an update, as I recall, to 3.5.3 but I did have this problem intermittently prior to that. Now it's all the time.
Halp!! Please? *clings to flist*
