Unfortunately I cannot confirm that. I'm experiencing the problem with
FF 3.0.6 (Linux) but just testing it again after having switched from
T3 4.2.2 to 4.2.6 it suddenly works now. However, while this seems to
indicate a caching issue, I made an effort to clear all caches (T3,
browser, deleted all temporary files) before and it still didn't work.
No clue what happened there and why it was 100% reproducible at first
and is now not reproducible at all. :( It also works in Opera, now, but
I didn't try that before when it didn't work in FF.

Cheers,
Christian
