I'm using Chrome 24/7 these days, including for website development. The early version were pretty raw for downloads and video. Are you using the latest version, 1.0.154.43?
​
If so, can you provide a little bit more detail about pdf and cut-n-paste problems?

The problem: If I cut an paste a sentence, right click and select paste the cursor moves one space to the left of where I place it (over writing whatever character was occupying that space in the line).
​
What do you know, it's pretty broken when you use right click! I'd say avoid right-click in text boxes from now on.
​
I've always used Ctrl-X (cut), Ctrl-C (copy) and Ctrl-V (paste), and they work fine.
​
Also, avoid the extremely neat but also broken icon in the lower right hand corner of text boxes. It allows you to change the dimensions of the text box, but after doing so the text box doesn't work very well any more.
​
About pdf problems, give me a link to one that causes the problem and I'll see if I can get a better idea of what might be happening.

Gee, I thought I could help, but I guess not. I click, the pdf page pops up almost immediately. Sorry.

Are you on a Windows system? Of recent vintage?

Re: Firefox update on Tuesday 23-09-26 has bunged things up some
I updated to the latest FF and it worked fine, but I use a Mac. Instead of putting the bookmarks menu somewhere at the top of the page they make it one of the menu items. Very inconvenient. If someone knows how to get it to display on the webpage on a Mac please tell me how.
