Firefox 3.5 and magnifier

Using the latest firerox, whenever I use the magnifier to zoom into a 
graph,
all I get is this lousy blue screen (see attached png ) I tried with a new 

profile, same result. Firefox 3.0.11 doesn't show this behaviour.

Any hints? Bugreport at Mozilla?

hey,

What happens if you use IE?  If IE works than you can tail it to a problem
with firefox.

Been seeing the same thing here with Opera 9.6x on Linux for a while. I don't
use that feature much so I never thought to complain to the Opera people
much.. It works fine in my Firefox v3.0.11 si I had been using that if I
needed to see the magnifier graphs.

Hope the FF people get on this soon so I can upgrade to ff 3.5. :)

I've solved this  by changing *hobbitgraph.c *adding *opacity:0.5; and
**opacity:0;
• fprintf(stdout, "  <div id='zoomBox' style='position:absolute;
overflow:none; left:0px; top:0px; width:0px; height:0
px; visibility:visible; background:red; filter:alpha(opacity=50); *
opacity:0.5;* -moz-opacity:0.5; -khtml-opacity:0.5'></div>\n");

I can confirm this fix on Firefox 3.5 for Linux, Mac OS X, and Safari. 
Not sure about any other platforms.

I made a quick patch for this in case others on the list want to apply it.

I can verify that it works for FF 3.0.11 on Fedora 10 linux.  Haven't tried others yet.  I applied the patch this morning and haven't run into any problems yet, but that doesn't mean that there aren't any out there.
