stoweboyd,

Thanks for the quick follow-up. We're think a recent update is causing there to be difficulty with having more than one drop in Firefox open at once.

As a work-around, and this is something we use for having multiple gmail accounts open at once, you can download an extension called IE Tab. You can get it here.

If you use IE's rendering engine for one drop and Firefox for the other you can have them open and work in them simultaneously.

Here's a link to a video that demonstrates this. The tab on the left is IE, on the right is Firefox.

Here is the drop itself - http://drop.io/ibcmtnp

FF 3; tabs in FF, not multiple windows or diff browsers

stoweboyd,

Sorry your still having problems. Permissions with web browsers can get tricky sometimes and it has a lot to do with sessions and caching.

Can you help us clear this one up? Your help would be great.

1. What browser are you running (I'm assuming Firefox since you had a question related to it before) and what version/build. You can get that info from the about menu.

2. Are you using separate windows or are you using tabs?

3. Are you using more than one browser such as having Internet Explorer for one drop and Firefox for another?

Thanks,
Peter F.

Nope. I have two drops open -- they have the same admin password but are different -- and if I use the bookmarklet to add something to one, I then have to relogin to the other. And don't tell me the solution is to have different admin passwords.

Peter F. replied on August 29, 2008 19:59 to the question "Can't have more than one drop.io open?" in Drop.io:

stoweboyd,

You can only have one instance of the same drop when logged in as admin at at a time. This is because the browser gets confused as to which password goes where. You should be fine to have multiple different drops open at the same time though.

stoweboyd,

For right now we just want to keep everything under one roof so it's as simple as possible. As we grow and add more and more products we will definitely revisit this.

Thanks!

stoweboyd,

Thanks for going through that trouble. What version of FF are you using and what operating system are you running? We'd love this info so we can take a further look into what might be happening with your install.

Thanks,

stoweboyd,

There is definitely a problem with our html/rich text editor. We've made a note of this and we've got a developer working up a fix for this. As soon as it's tested and ready to go we'll let you and everyone else know that it's fixed.

Thanks for your feedback!

Can't have more than one drop.io open?

As I switch from one drop.io in one window to a diff one in another, I am forced to login over and over?

stoweboyd reported a problem in Drop.io on August 29, 2008 15:36:

Your product names here in GetSatisfaction are wrong

can't you just have two: 1. the 'drag and drop.io' plugin, and 2. drop.io website?

Um... I uninstalled all my plugins, installed just yours, and it didn't work.

PS This is not a very user friendly approach.

Hey Stowe,

We've been having some problems with users having more than a few extensions running at once. The best thing to do is to uninstall them, add the Drag & Drop.io, and reinstall the one-by-one to figure out what's causing the conflict.

HTML doesn't work

Can't get html for lists to work, and neither does styled text

Firefox Plugin doesn't work

drag and drop.io not working. I can manually add new drops through the add-on, but other than using it to open drops, nothing else works.
