Mozilla Firefox and WindowBlinds
Wednesday, July 21, 2004 by CarLBanks | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
How come Mozilla Firefox doesn't react to WindowBlinds like IE does?
The dropdown menu's don't look like the ones in IE.

WB skins my Firefox and Mozilla just as well as it does IE, bit I'm not applying any different skins to FF or Moz. I'm on my lunch at work now, I'll have to check my FF settings when I get home and let you know.

Menu Items seem to be classic style.
Drop down background and drop down item is classic.
Toolbar buttons are skinned but not toolbar icons.
Everything else seems skinned.

It all depends on what Firefox theme is applied. WB will skin anything that is not skinned by the Firefox theme. WB skins my entire Firefox. I use the Qute Firefox theme and it only seems to skin the button icon images and nothing else, so WB takes care of the rest.

I'm just using the default theme and WB is applying the background to the toolbars. It doesn't skin the drop-down menus, although it does apply the skin background color to the menus. [click on my screen name to see my screenshot]

If you want to skin the pulldown menus...http://cute.mozdev.org/
You can modify this skin to your liking as I have.

Those icons will definitely help me differentiate those menu items that are too similar. Thanks!
The actual menus in FireFox can't be skinned by WindowBlinds (or msstyle for that matter). There are some things you can do to make it look a bit better though: http://texturizer.net/firefox/tips.html#app_xpmenus
