I am using Firefox (mozilla firefox) both on windows XP and Linux (FC2 )But in Linux it is behaving some how strange. In linux i am using firefox version 1.0
I am pasting here some lines from Java Script Console.
I got these errors when i was using hotmail or yahoo.

Well, are you still able to use the services?

All these errors are indicating that those sites are not meeting some standards that Firefox is expecting; so it is merely indicating to you that there were some violations. Surely you will get these kinds of violations since places like Hotmail (MS) are not completely respectful to web standards like W3C. It depends on the site.

You can go to a particular webpage which has been written in such a way that only a IE browser could make sense of it. If you are still able to browse the sites than it's just what i've explained and you can't do much about it, besides disabling Java Script in the "Web Features" section of Firefox's control settings (but that won't help you).

If I were you I would at least upgrade Firefox on your GNU/Linux machine to 1.0.4. That will not necessarily fix those errors but there have been quite a few security fixes since 1.0. Additionally, I would stop using Hotmail/Yahoo - those services aren't GNU/Linux & standards friendly anyway, but that might not be something you would be willing to do - just food for thought.

Dear MAJID,
Salam,

FYI, http://mozillanews.org/?article_date=20 ... 3+18-06-59

But, I found this might be helpfull for you :)
I just did the following:

1. In FireFox I go to Tools -> JavaScript Console
2. In the eval bar I enter: document.all
3. Click the Evaluate button

Here is what I get:

WARNING Non-Standard document.all property was used. Use W3C standard document.getElementById() instead.
INFO [object HTML document.all class]

Triied
document.all Evaluation option plus read out the links you mentioned Freak but both of them not worked.
Errors are the same.
