Default Fix for Firefox extra lines

I know there is a help forum, but not sure many would see it there...

Posting from Firefox will add annoying extra line breaks. It makes your posts look even more Rick Bell than you desire. To fix this, type about:config in your address bar, then copy and paste this in the search box:

editor.use_div_for_default_newlines

Then double click the item to change it to false.

Also, when you copy multiple paragraphs from another site and paste them, the line breaks get removed. Press ctrl-shift-v to paste, instead. This strips text formatting(useful in other programs, too) and it pastes with proper paragraph breaks.

Still can't find a fix for being unable to quote people who use fancy character sets the Firefox doesn't like, leaving a blank box. If anyone has a fix for that, please share!

Firefox is by far the best. Chrome sucks.

Firefox is the successor to Netscape Navigator. The founder of Netscape saw a talk about free software and was inspired to make an open source browser instead, or so the legend says.

It isn’t normal though. It has to be a software bug on the users’ computers. The cursor is by default located below the quote. You would have to respond above the quote on purpose, but what kind of insanity is that?
