I use Safari almost exclusively. Periodically I find a site that doesn't like to play with Safari, so I'll load the page in FireFox.
and since I've run into the same issue, as, I'm certain, have others, Snowy junkies in particular, I'm re-posting this very helpful AppleScript (I think dkmarsh wrote it. Sorry, no link.
) that opens your front Safari page in Firefox. (I've got it hot keyed by Butler.)
tell application "Safari"
activate
set theURL to URL of document 1
end tell
do shell script "open -a Firefox.app " & quoted form of theURL
Note that it can't get you all the way to a page that requires log-in for access.
