There is also some tab issues with the latest nightly.

1. Middle click doesn't always work (mostly not here on Neowin)

2. Can't close tabs (or at least I can't)

but I do have TBP installed so that could be the reason.. going to do a new profile and see if that fixes it. will report back here.

Edit: yep, TBP's messes the tabs up in the latest nightlys.. so be ware. Disabling does seem fix it for now.

2nd Edit: sorry found more info.

After installing the build from 23rd, my settings in tab browser preferences got trashed. Works fine after you reset it, just a friendly warning.

bangbang, I know this is a bit OT, but...

If you had some extra time, would you be able to help me out a bit in getting FF to compile on my machine? The only reason I ask is because I've tried a few different guides, but still get some errors. I could post to the mozilla build mailing list, but I've uusally not gotten responses when trying to ask mozilla people questions, but I'll probably still try just in case.

I ask you because obviously you know a bit about building it, since you've been doing it for so long. I want to try and put some memory leak checking code in, which I can do, but not until it compiles obviously.

If you could, I'd appreciate it. But I know you're pretty busy, so I'd understand if you couldn't.

vcv.. I can't help you with your problem but I can give you words of encouragement.

Keep up the good work (Y), and for those who keep saying that you're bashing FireFox purposely... shame on them.

For people who don't know what I talking about, vcv had recently posted a thread about Firefox's memoery leak problem... https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=288645

If you have any comments about the Fx memory leak problem, please DO NOT post here, post in the thread that I linked above.

I deleted the objdir and tried distclean at the suggested of someone at mozillazine.org, to no avail.

this happens at the very beginning of building? try to follow these directions to a T:

http://gemal.dk/mozilla/build.html

After about a minute or two of it running various checks, it happens.

The only problem with those instructions is that it uses gcc. I'll try it, but I really wanted to use MSVC :(

@echo off

set CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@cvs-mirror.mozilla.org:/cvsroot

c:\src\cpp\firefox\mozilla is the root folder for the source

c:\src\cpp\firefox\moztools has the moztools needed for msvc and windows

c:\src\cpp\firefox\vc71 contains the custom glib and libidl libraries for msvc

set PATH=%PATH%;%MOZ_SRC%\mozilla\mingw\bin;C:\src\cpp\firefox\vc71\bin;%MOZ_TOOLS%\bin;%GLIB_PREFIX%\bin;%LIBIDL_PREFIX%\bin

that line is messed up. you shouldn't have to reference mingw and you have no reference to cygwin. Here's my mozset. Simply edit out my paths and put in yours but don't change the order:

@echo off

set MOZ_TOOLS=J:\mozilla\moztools

set GLIB_PREFIX=J:\mozilla\w32build\vc7

set LIBIDL_PREFIX=J:\mozilla\w32build\vc7

set MOZ_SRC=J:\mozilla

call c:\"program files"\"microsoft visual studio .net 2003"\common7\tools\vsvars32.bat

set PATH=%PATH%;j:\mozilla\cygwin\bin;%GLIB_PREFIX%\bin;%LIBIDL_PREFIX%\bin;%MOZ_TOOLS%\bin

set HOME=J:\mozilla

set CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@cvs-mirror.mozilla.org:/cvsroot

also, put the quotes around "microsoft visual studio .net 2003" in that path.
