Spurred on by the touching story of the creation of a Twitter account for a cat I indeed found that if firebox was put in Internet Explorer mode using the User Agent I could create a Twitter account.
I felt appropriately chastened until this morning when I found that firefox pretending to be Internet Explorer could not execute the Twitter Search command. What a bummer. So back to Windows I had to go.

I'm confused. I exclusively use Firefox. I signed up for a Twitter account about 2 months ago and it was fine.
I've just gone to twitter.com and clicked the Seach button and it still works fine - although it does use Javascript to submit the search. Do you perchance have the NoScript plugin loaded in Firefox?

Let us forget about this.. I don't have a NoScript plugin loaded. Why the behavior on my machine is different I can't imagine. I like to be unique but not this unique. For me twitter doesn't completely work in F11. I can deal with it.
For example this morning Search works. So it must be a Twitter problem. -- ======================================================================= Bahdges?
