[mapguide-users] Virtual Earth and Firefox with FUSION?

[Paul Spencer]

When I run this in firefox 3.5.2 on OS X it fails to load and I see a  
javascript error in firebug

this.scroller.getStyle('left') has no properties

If I turn on 'Break on all errors' in firebug and reload, I get a  
number of exceptions that can be safely continued from (they are in  
try/catch blocks but firefox stops on them anyway) and, strangely,  
everything eventually loads and works.

Very strange.  This behaviour is normally the opposite, firefox works  
and the other browsers don't.

I don't really know what to think about this.  Not sure if it is due  
to being in an iframe, a timing issue loading the ms maps api or  
something else

Can you try with firebug and see if you get the same thing (with break  
on all errors on)

Cheers

Paul
