Firefox does not link to another site

I have an image in my web page that when clicked on is supposed to take the viewer to another extrernal web site.
I have set it up with Dreamweaver CS4, and it works OK with IE6, Google Chrome, but not Firefox.
Can anyone please advise how I should change my code so that Firefox will open this external page?

Hello Jill.
First of all, you may be having a problem with some extension or plugin that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
If that's not the case, can you provide a link to the page or upload the page (if it's still offline) so we can see what's actually happening?

  • Firefox does not now find web sites unless full url is entered

    Since I updated Firefox, I keep getting the message:-
    Firefox can't find the file at jar:file:///C:/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox/omni.jar!/chrome/en-GB/locale/browser-region/region.propertiesyahoo.
    All other web browsers that I use would pick up the entry 'yahoo' immediately. [I use the yahoo search as an example.]
    This happens with the majority of searches now. I have given up trying to use the firefox search engine and wonder if it is worth the time using it at all if I forget and typr in the search only to have to re-do it again after receiving the above message. Am I doing something wrong or is there a problem here?

    Hello,
    I'm afraid that site doesn't work either for me with Safari 3.0.4 on OS X 10.4.11.

    If images are missing then check that you aren't blocking images from some domains.
    *Check the permissions for the domain in the current tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
    *Check that images are enabled: Tools > Options > Content: [X] Load images automatically
    *Check the exceptions in "Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions"
    *Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images with the cursor Down key).
    If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
    Make sure that you do not block third-party images, the permissions.default.images pref should be 1.<br />
    See:
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Images_or_animations_do_not_load
    There are also extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images.

  • Firefox does not open links with a new window or tab for certain web sites, e.g. Santander On line banking, help links.

    When accessing some sites where they have links for additional information that would normally open a new window or tab, Firefox does not open either. This happens on a variety of sites, most recently the Santander on-line banking site.

  • I tried to paste text from another site into my Firebox document, but it says "Firefox does not support Copy & Paste". How do I enable clipboard? I never had problems like this on Firefox before...why?

    I tried to paste text I copied from another site into my Notepad++ (as I've always done in the past with no problem).
    But today for the 1st time, I got a message when I tried to paste the text "Firefox does not support Copy & Paste". What?
    What happened to the clipboard?

    That's a security feature in Firefox.

  • Firefox does not fully load Barclaycard Authentication site. It loads as far as asking for certain letters in my pasword but does not load the "Submit" button so I cannot continue with my purchase and have to switch to IE8 browser to purchase anything ov

    Firefox does not fully load Barclaycard Authentication site. It loads as far as asking for certain letters in my pasword but does not load the "Submit" button so I cannot continue with my purchase and have to switch to IE8 browser to purchase anything over the internet. Any clues?
    == This happened ==
    A few times a week
    == Couple of weeks ago

    Your UserAgent string in Firefox is totally messed up by another program that you installed, and Barclays doesn't know you are using Firefox 3.6.6 - it probably looks like IE 6.0 to that website.
    [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_Agent]
    type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and hit Enter
    ''If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.''
    Filter = '''general.useragent.'''
    Right-click the preferences that are '''bold''', one line at a time, and select '''''Reset''''',
    Then restart Firefox

  • Firefox does not process paypaly continue_shopping links correctly.

    firefox does not process paypaly continue_shopping links correctly. When you are at the paypal 'View Cart' and click on the continue shopping link it should take you back to the page you came from (this works in IE and Chrome) instead you end up on a 'sign in to PayPal page'
    As far as I know this will happen on any page that is using PayPal add to cart buttons with a continue_shopping_url but you can see it on my own page below.

    Very odd today it seems to work ok. I've tried it several times over the last week and each time it would do as described above. Today it works properly. Go Figure.

  • Anyone know why, firefox does not remember password for a site when you remove password from the view password site? I removed a pasword in the view password window and now it not asking me to remember and also it is not remembering the password when I go

    Anyone know why, firefox does not remember password for a site when you remove password from the view password site? I removed a password for a site that was not remembering the correct password for the "view password" window and now it does not guess the password and does not remember the password for that site. All other sites are being remembered.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == After I deleted the password from the view password window.

    The saved password feature worked well, but the site I had saved the password for required that I change the password. I have found no way to update the password in Firefox. After I deleted the saved password, Firefox did not ask if I wanted the new password saved. When this happened before, I removed and re-installed Firefox, and then it worked. I hope there is another way to update a password.

  • Firefox does not open Gmail to send link when I click the Send Link option on the menu. Idid set the mail to option to Gmail.

    Even though I set Gmail as the mail to setting on the Options tab, firefox does not send links. This started when I updated to the new version of Firefox.

  • Firefox does not open Gmail to send link when I click the Send Link option on the menu. I have set Gmail as the mailto option, but did not help

    Firefox does not activate Gmail when I click send link in the menu under File or by right click menu on a webpage. I have set Gmail as the Mail to under options, but this did not help.

    I have the same problem but it appears that an add-on I'm using is causing the problem. Try opening Firefox in safe mode (which disables add-ons) Then try it. If that solves the problem, you need to disable all your add ons and enable them one by one to figure out which one(s) is causing the problem.

  • Firefox does not start for very long after clicking!!If another browser is opened Firefox opens after that.

    Firefox does not open after clicking on the Firefox icon on my desktop. Occasionally it opens after a very long time and that also a number of pages open at the same time equal to the number of times hat I clicked the icon trying to open. If I open another browser like Google Chrome after trying to open Firefox then Firefox follows it to open much quicker after Google chrome opens.

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings and disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
    ''(If you're using an added theme, switch to the Default theme.)''
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu by clicking on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item:<br>
    [[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]<br><br>
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.
    Thank you.

  • Firefox does not stop loading even after the site is loaded and continues as if it is still loading. I have clocked it to 15 minutes, why?

    Sorry, I should distinguish between slow loading and manual reloading.
    I understood your problem to be that Firefox never finished loading the page, i.e., some part of the page was loading too slowly.
    By reloading, I meant Ctrl+r (or the reload button), to manually reload the page. You can disregard any cached files and reload all content fresh from the server by adding the Shift key, i.e., Ctrl+Shift+r (helpful when specific sites do not load correctly).
    If the page is automatically reloading itself over and over, that sounds like a completely different problem.
