Problem with...uh...Facebook.
 

I know, I know -- but as a college student, Facebook is something of a necessity. Anyway, the issue is with the "mini-feed" or newsfeed within a profile -- whenever I click the little "X" next to a mini-feed story to hide it, it seems to disappear as it should, but I get this:

And when the page is refreshed or otherwise navigated to again, the story is still there. This only seems to happen in OmniWeb -- not Safari or Firefox. It's a very insignificant bug, to be sure, but a bug nonetheless.

Your hosting requires everyone to log-in before they can view your image.

And the "Error: This story could not be hidden" bug is almost...almost as annoying as the immortal Netflix bug.

Whoops. Sorry about that--should be all fixed now.

Nope, it's not. I was just asked to supply a login.

Yes. The Netflix bug refuses to die. Why? At least the rating is recorded now.

I've also been having a lot of trouble navigating photo galleries on Facebook. It always jumps back to the first picture selected.

I can second that - I suffer from both of these problems; the error message when removing things from any feed, and difficulties navigating galleries - some pictures seem to randomly not load...

Any ideas!? Is this a Facebook bug or something the OG can fix?

I also suffer from both of these problems...the pictures gallery jumps back to the very first picture and the story feeds fail to delete.

Me too! It's annoying.

Must squash the Netflix bug.... I've started using Flock just because of that bug (no kidding).

Oh dear...!! Any handy mods with a delete button!?

BTW, quoting the spam message helps the spammer just as much as the original post. Edited your message. ;-)

Oh yeah....cheers! (blonde moment)

I'm having trouble with Facebook, too -- whenever I try to share something form my Home page, OW crashes! I hate uing Firefox (it won't shoe flash) but can't handle not sharing posts!

Facebook has been awful lately. Same thing happens using Opera, Safari, or OW. I think it's them. I get various network-related Ajax errors.

It certainly is frustrating -- to add to the frustrations of losing my haxies with Snow Leopard (I upgraded to it hoping it would solve my problems with Facebook).

More Facebook Issues...
 

A couple of months ago, Safari would always crash on me after entering a couple lines of text in any text field on Facebook, while OmniWeb worked fine. Now, if I so much as click in the Facebook status update text field using OmniWeb, it crashes instantly. For some reason, Safari now seems to work Facebook text fields with no problems at all. I know that Facebook is sometimes pretty sketchy, so I'm prepared to accept that the problem is at least partially related to their site, but it would still be nice if the Omni folks could take a look at making OW usable on Facebook. I'm using the latest OW 5.10.2 sneaky peak on Snow Leopard (10.6.1).

Are you sending in the resulting crash reports?

It's almost always worth trying a repeatable crash out in a newly created account, just to make sure it isn't something particular to your configuration files, cache, etc. Don't delete your preferences, cache, etc. as a trouble-shooting tactic -- if it turns out that makes the problem go away, you've just destroyed potentially valuable evidence.

Yes, I recently submitted a crash report. Fortunately, the problem is easily reproducible :)

I noticed a Facebook problem last night. I tried to upload a video (several attempts) and it wouldn't budge. No indication on the progress bar they provide. It just sat there each time. Safari worked fine the first attempt.
