Viewing MSDN code samples in Firefox or Mozilla browsers

The MSDN facelift (not MSDN2) hosed the formatting of code samples in Firefox and Mozilla browsers. To fix it, add this to your userContent.css file (chromEdit is the easiest way to modify this file):

/* Microsoft MSDN code stylesheet */
pre
{
 white-space: pre !important;
}

Finally .. thank you so freakin' much for that tip Darrell. You're going to have to start a new category of blog postings just for FireFox tips.

Awesome! I had hoped that Microsoft would have fixed the CSS for MSDN2. They still have time to change their ways though!
