Entering twitter.com and make a post in the field enabled for writing, typing of the characters is done very slowly. So slow that one finished, and even seen on screen as you write letters

Read this in FAQ.

K-Meleon in Spanish

possibly server working to slow

- else c desga2's answer. Nothing this forum can help 2 solve.

I am getting this too. Twitter's character counting (java?) script is probably the problem.

There is no Tools>User Agent option. Since Twitter is so popular these days it is a shame that it is real tricky to use with K-Meleon.

Sorry cannot help because I have no twitter account. In general it looks like most of such slow scripts work fine in the next KM version, KM1.6alpha, so there's hope ;-)

But wondering why don't you have the user agents menu?? It's in the default profiles, so either you have disabled it, or perhaps just overlooked it, or are using a very special KM version...? I did check in KM1.6alpha, and see it there too.

there's a twitter xul extension twitbin that will help overcome this problem i think
uses the twitter api
download from kmext.sf.net (not sure uder which category)

also there's a much betwer open source microblogging service called identica http://identi.ca an api extension is alos available for it

for testing twitter
user: kmeleontesters
pass: fucktwitter

I will look out for the extension.　Thank you.

Twitter's script is terrible. It seems to only work properly on IE8 (barely), FireFox (if you have a lot of memory) and Google Chrome (which, being Google Chrome, has its own issues). I doubt that this is something that's fixable in K-Meleon, but don't let me put anyone off who's thinking of trying.
