Netvibes Display Problems

I’m not sure if I’m the only one who is experiencing display problems on the Netvibes website using the latest Firefox browser. What’s happening is that whenever I hover my mouse over an entry the appearing options like edit and collapse look totally misplaced. It’s hard to describe and I did create a screenshot so that you can take a look at it by yourself.

Yesterday everything was working fine and today it’s messed up. I even tried changing the theme but this did not help either. Can this be related to a Firefox extension that I did install recently or is this a general error on the Netvibes website that is affecting all Firefox users ?

I was able to confirm that it is not extension related because I did start Firefox without add-ons and the display problem was still in existance. Opera for example is working fine which I tried afterwards.

Does not look pretty, uh ? It’s irritating as well which is the worst part. Do you use Netvibes and have the same problem ?

    Everything’s fine here on FF 2.0.0.11…
    Did you try out another theme from the Netvibes settings?

    I just looked at netvibes for the first time in months as I stopped using it for google reader and everything looked fine for me. I’m using FF3 beta 2.

    I have noticed that some ajax stuff doesn’t work with FF3 like symbaloo and this stickynote application that was posted on lifehacker today.

  3. Hello martin.

    I just came from netvibes and everything is ok with Firefox 2.0.0.11

    Maybe it’s a feed going wrong!

  4. Calida says:

    I have the latest FF3 and everything is fine. But i am using a theme though.

  5. Jerusalem Joe says:

    I don’t have a problem either using the latest FF.

    I’m seeing lots of problems in netvibes with the latest FF version 3.5.2. Netvibes is very slow and when i click on tabs they dissappear. My bookmarks do not appear as well in netvibes.

    Everything is working fine from opera.

  7. Mico says:

    Like viberader, my Netvibe tabs are disappearing. For several days now, when I am on certain tabs the others do display, but when I go to a different tab, the tab row disappears completely.

    Today a new behavior surfaced: on some tabs the tab row is overlapped by the individual module headers.

    I am using Firefox 3.5.2, but only Netvibes seems to have problems.

  8. viberaider says:

    I ended up uninstalling my FF add-ons and now netvibes is working fine.

  9. Mico says:

    I didn’t do anything, and Netvibes started working properly about an hour after I posted (above). Still no problems.

    So, viberaider, you should try reactivating those Ffx add-ons.
