Cannot preview php pages with DW in FireFox.

more options

I am a web programmer. I use a macbook version 10.5.8. Recently updated to Firefox 3.6. I use DW CS4 for coding. When I code PHP pages and try to preview them using FireFox, browser opens mulitple blank windows. This in turns causes FireFox to freeze and I have to force quit. I do not have this issue w/safari, opera, and other browsers I test on. Firefox worked fine prior to me updating to 3.6. How do I fix this problem?

Any websites I have up and try to change code or update the php pages. I am unable to preview them.

There is a fix for Dreamweaver, so it works in Firefox 3.6+ versions:

There is a $5.00 fee for that Dreamweaver fix. That website and the fix are not associated with Mozilla in any manner. Support for that fix is provided by that that website via email.
