    Exclamation Gmail!

    Hi! I just installed Ubuntu today and it's great! I think I'll get WoW working soon.

    Anyway, I am posting here because my Gmail has a problem. When I log-in with a specific account, (Let's make it example@gmail.com) Gmail... Eh... How should I explain this? Gmail does kinda load, but it does so very slowly and I get this error in the Firefox logs:
    "Warning: Error in parsing value for property 'display'. Declaration dropped."
    >>and
    "Warning: Unknown property 'zoom'. Declaration dropped."
    "Warning: Unknown property 'zoom'. Declaration dropped."
    "Warning: Use of getBoxObjectFor() is deprecated. Try to use element.getBoundingClientRect() if possible."
    and alot of these again "Warning: Error in parsing value for property 'display'. Declaration dropped."

    etc.

    However, when I log into my other gmail account, (Let's name it example2@gmail.com), Gmail works fine!

    I have tried cleaning the cache, and clearing private data, and restarting the computer. Any help would be very appreciated. Thanks!

    Do you have Flash installed?

    Have you added something from the google labs on that account? Also try loading in in the basic HTML version and see what happens.

    The Gmail website is ajax, not flash I believe.

    Wow! Thanks for the fast replies.

    I don't think that I installed anything from google labs.
    I will try loading Gmail in the basic HTML.



    What puzzles me is why one account works fine and the other doesnt. Thanks for your help, guys!

    Yeah, but it wouldn't hurt to have Flash running.

    Re: Gmail!

    Also, which Firefox toolbars/adons do you have installed? It may be that two or more of them are conflicting.

    I agree that CustomizeGoogle is a good add-on to have if you use google services (such as gmail) much. It probably wont help with the OPs problem, but its a good idea nevertheless.
    As for the OPs problem: using an email client such as evolution or thunderbird to access gmail is easy to set up and will bypass the problem
