On Firebox, mouse over the above image. You should get a long garbled mess of two sentences, but instead you'll only get the first few words and then some ellipses.
Why is that? In internet explorer you would see the entire rant, but not in firebox! I demand a fix! sars! apples! avian flu!
werks for me...
I have no idea why -- are you on firebox?
I'm on Firefox, I've never heard of this 'Firebox'. And yes, I only get the first sentence, then 'I am....", but I can read it fine on IE.
This is the exact reason why I use Internet Explorer instead of Firefox. Well, maybe not exact.
DOWN WITH FIREBOX!
Get off your soap box, azn bird flu spreader. >:o!
with the arguments provided, it is no soap box he is standing on. Hell, it's hardly a peg leg stolen from a white mage pirate!

Mine stops at customer.
The gap between f and b on a standard keyboard is approximately 1.5cm. This is too much to allow the mistyping of Firefox 6 times. :mad2:
Sucks to be you, PG. Your example works fine for me and I am using Firefox. As for the actual banner on the fora, it's this:
And the alternate text pops up just fine. Says, "Eyes on Final Fantasy Forums" or some other such nonsense.
This is where Miss Lapiz says that it is best to use title tags in the end, I'm sure.
Right click said baner and click on "properties". If you then select the text at the bottom with your mouse you can scroll and read it, or alternative select it all and copy and paste it into a text document to read.
It gets as far as cust... for me. Oh well.
Obviously firebox has a fix which requires third party applications, registry hacks, reinstallation of the cpu and illegal warez.
I demand an official fix! and why do I have to 'fix' it to begin with? Firebox should work the way I want the way I say when I say it.
NOW1!!11!!1
wierd, sounded like you were talking about IE. Don't worry, version 7 is finally nearing its end of development life cycle. Give it a few years, and those fix0rz will be y0urz
That image rollover text problem was the exact reason why I uninstalledfirefox because I use it so much.
But I hate IE like I hate Apple products :(Quote:

right click lol
I mouse over with Firefox and see it up to cust...
It's really just an issue of using alt tags and title tags.
!
I'm switching from Firefox to IE now.
Yup, that's where it is for me as well.Quote:

And that's hardly a matter worth switching back to the terrible IE from FF.
It looks like it should in Firefox and Swiftfox. I don't want to see whole paragraphs in mouseovers.
It works on Firefox for me. *shrugs*
All of you are using hacked versions of firebox.
Seriously, any idea why people are giving inconsistent responses?
I have no idea. Would you like a kitten?
EDIT:WHAT IS FIREBOX LPLOLOOLOLOLLOL!11!11!
It does get cut off; but it is a surfability feature - not a bug. It is called smart design. That way, you do not mouse over and get like 10x lines of text; besides - I think the w3c standards have a limit to the # of chars that can be in an alt tag. Mabey. I know I seen somthing on their site, but it may have been a smart coding blurb. Who knows, that page is a mess.Quote:

But seriously, what browser do you suggest we use bassel?
I don't know why the word firebox is so funny, but it is.
I expect everybody to use firebox. I've installed in three out of six machines at this house (leaving my parents alone).
I just think that it should be perfect.
So any small problem like me being able to see 500 lines of text when I mouse over any image should happen.
Because it works in IE.
I'm still trying to get Firebox to have colored scrollbars, for example.
Because something that IE has FF should have too? Should FF have all the bugs and exploits too?Quote:

I beleive they are being incorparated in the CSS 3.0 model as well.
Now you scroll bar is part of your BROWSER! No webpage should influence anything in your browser with out your say so.

Bipper are you Dr Unne's alt? Because I feel like I'm arguing with him. :p
In truth though, the limit in seeing the title (my img tag has a title, not an alt tag) tag is due to w3c standards?
Why are there inconsistencies?
sigh.
I want pie.
Could be w3c; I can't be bothered to look them up at the moment though.
Inconsistancies could lie in different versions, different inerpetations of what you said, or what 'they' said, or prehaps other reasons. Either way, if you are using a title tag for such a reason, you really are not using it for what it is for :)
Also, inconsistancies in versions are kinda funny, because firefox has a new version out every once in a while; when was the last IE update?
Whee. And no, Unne and I are two very different people with completely polar views on most everything in life, except what matters; computers.
