Facebook incompatiblity
 
When trying to visit any part of Facebook, I get this message.

http://www.facebook.com/common/browser.php

Any solutions?

Which IT are you using? Have you tried using the mobile Facebook URL?

Since the official 2008 upgrade, I have found that Facebook and a number of other sites have weird formatting, where the sidebar of a page is at the top and the rest of the page underneath. Was perfectly fine with the 2008 beta.

I get the same message when trying the iphone link. I am using the latest OS. It was working a few days ago.

@lavo: try switching off "fit to page" and it might work.

Could someone advanced try going to about:config and pasting the 5 general.useragent values?

I get totally same error when using desktop Browsers (IE or Firefox).

That's odd. I just tested and loaded facebook on my N800 and its showing up fine in normal and fullscreen mode. The scroll bars are present (if only Facebook would get the width just right), and in the right place at the bottom and right side.

Ditto for my desktop Firefox version 2.0.0.11

I have exactly the same thing! Zooming down one click to 80% makes the layout right again though.

I have only ever used the full release of OS2008 and it used to display Facebook fine so I wonder if it's a change Facebook has done to it's layout instead of something we have done!?

It's probably something wrong on my part. Could someone paste the five general.useragent values from about:config ?

If "View > Fit page to width" is ticked, I have the exact behaviour as described. With it unticked, and the browser full-screen, Facebook looks perfect.

LOL, brilliant, that's exactly what it is! :rolleyes: Thank you

Glad it worked for you.

Still, my question goes unanswered. Could someone please post the five general.useragent values from about:config ?

Here you go...

dom.window.useragent.policy : true
general.useragent.contentlocale : chrome://navigator-region/locale/region.properties
general.useragent.locale : en-GB
general.useragent.security : U
general.useragent.vendor : Firefox/3.0a1 Tablet browser 0.2.2 RX-34+RX-44_2008SE_2.2007.50-2

I actually discovered the fix:

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.0) Gecko/20070423 Firefox/0.8

is the correct string.
