    Default Firefox and Gmail

    Was wondering if anyone else is having a problem with opening up gmail with Firefox , this started yesterday and firefox doesnt let me open my gmail for some reason , it opens with IE but not Firefox.
    I tried it on another machine and same story , it will open it up in basic html and thats it , any ideas ?????


    Cheers

    Ok after much swearing and cursing Ive found the problem , for some reason one of the settings in gmail was changed , where it says use https with your browser must be ticked , if its not ticked it doesnt work period , the only thing I can put it down too is that I installed a plug in the other day and since then it went belly up , I hope this will help others.

    Cheers

    I have a g-mail account and use Firefox v.3.0.2 without problems.
    I had upgraded to the latest version of Firefox but re-installed the old (v.3.0.2) version due to other browsing problems.

    Perhaps you will find some clues for a solution to the problem at the g-mail forums.

    Thanks Tristen , Ive cleared my browser cache and everything is going fine again , I took a look at the help pages and forum at gmail and it looks like this is an ongoing issue for other users of gmail.

    Cheers
