Twitter Updates for 2008-12-25

  • rode bicycle (MTB) to work today, which is only interesting because there’s a foot of snow on the ground. #
  • rode mostly in the street. Cars had packed snow to hard, bumpy surface. Not much traffic. Riding on unpacked snow wasn’t possible. #
  • wonders what can be learned about a person by the way s/he types; wonders if this has been studied. #

oTidyBrowser is not defined

If you’re tired of seeing this annoying error in Firebug, here’s the fix on Ubuntu (I stole this from here and condensed it to its Ubuntu specific essentials, though, of course, the procedure would be similar on other OSes):

  • Locate tidy.jar in your Firefox profile
    • Open $HOME/.mozilla in File Browser (starting at $HOME doesn’t work for some reason)
    • Click Search and type tidy.jar in the search bar
  • Right click and Open with “Archive Manager”
  • Go into content directory, right click tidyBrowser.js, and Open With… your favorite editor
  • Change line 220 from if( oTidyBrowser.bTopLoadBusy==false ) to if(oTidyBrowser && oTidyBrowser.bTopLoadBusy==false )
    • (Note: formatting left as I found it)
  • Save and close tidyBrowser.js
  • Click Update in Archive Manager dialog that pops up after save
  • Restart Firefox
  • Rejoice at having removed one small annoyance from your life
