Chrome Problems

I've started using Chrome (as in, Google's browser) lately, due to some issues with Firefox... but I'm having some problems with some of the sites I like to use, and unfortunately, some of those sites are my own. Specifically, it doesn't seem to want to display a lot of checkboxes and radio buttons. I don't know if it's because they've got some scripting language attached to them that Chrome doesn't do, or what. It's annoying, though, because I can't sign into a lot of things that require an agreement-click and I also can't do much with my Wordpress stuff.

Anybody out there encountered this? Anybody have a solution? I'm trying to get a feel for whether this would be easier to fix than my Firefox issues.

I haven't had similar problems yet. I'm running the unstable branch — no choice on that front.

I've been meaning to try WordPress. Perhaps I'll give it a go to see if I have the same problems.

The stable branch is anything but in my experience, I run the Dev branch and have no issues signing into any site. I use it as my primary browser, unless I am doing web development work where I switch to FF because FireBug is 100x better then the developer console in chrome

I've not had any problems with Chrome and your sites, personally. I heart Chrome.

Huh. Haven't had any problems with your sites at all, and I've been using Chrome since January-ish. No problems commenting or anything, either. Very strange.

Are there any public sites you can point to that display this problem? The Chrome team is very serious about getting this sort of thing right. They've got a built-in tool for reporting pages that don't work correctly: http://www.google.com/support/chrome/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=95760

That said, I have had to make a couple of changes to one of my javascript projects to get it to work in (the unstable Mac version of) Chrome.
