Now whenever the "file upload" window opens, firefox freezes up. It doesn't crash. If I wait 25 minutes (I checked once) then it will acknowledge whatever I clicked on. Then if I'm willing to wait another 25 minutes, it will respond to my next command (say, select file?). Then another 25 minutes till it will respond to the next one (for instance, upload).<br /><br />Now I'm having to use IE to be able to send out the emails, when I shouldn't have to! And the decision that clicking a file input TEXTBOX should automatically open their worthless file upload utility?!?! <br /><br />Looks like I'm going back to IE since Firfox is no longer a useable browser for me.

I am a web programmer who just finished implementing a simple new file upload for an existing client app and I could not figure out why this mess was happening; I thought it was some kind of a bug. I'm grateful to your blog entry for letting me know it's not something I did, or my designer's jacked-up CSS either. <BR/><BR/>I bet you twenty dollars that this is going to come back from QA as a bug. "Client cannot clear form field once they have filled it out." It's UNSPEAKABLY lame that my answer is going to be "use another browser." I expect better than this from Firefox.<BR/><BR/>I'm totally not bringing this up to my PM. Checking it in to version control and hoping I have another job before anyone notices.
