how do I get the purple text in Firefox

Posted by joslynn on November 21, 2006, at 19:04:40

A technical question. Ever since changing to Firefox as my browser, when I look at a list of posts, the posts I read most recently no longer appear in purple text. They are just the regular blue, so I can't tell them from the other posts, and I lose my place.

Other than that, I like Firefox as a browser. Does anyone know how to get the purple text back?

P.S. I am on a Mac.

Thanks.

Did you read the posts before with your previous browser, or had you already switched to Firefox? Firefox won't know what you read with another browser.

Also, posts in the list won't turn purple until the list's been refreshed.

Also, are you reading posts by clicking on them individually or by using the new "show all" feature? They won't turn purple unless you click on them individually.

Finally, the yellow "new" indicators should flag the posts that are new even if they're all blue.

Does that help?

You might also want to check how many days history you keep. That's usually my problem.
