When at the "results" page of a search, clicking on "blue" link does not display webpage. Copying "green" urldoes.

When at the "results" page of a search, clicking on "blue" link does not display webpage although url is shown in address bar. Copying "green" url, shown at bottom of a result, into address bar and hitting "enter" goes to the address and displays the page. Have tried different selections at tools/options with no change. Is there some other setting that needs to be changed?

Sorry, this is bad reply. I wanted to write this reply to another question.

  • Left click on a link does not open the link; a small blue window opens saying loading then closes.

    Left click on any link in a web page does not open the link. A very small blue window appears with the word loading and a few moving dots. In a few seconds the blue window closes but the link does not open. Links used to open. If I right click the link, I can open the link in a new window. Many new windows pile up. This is a nuisance.
    I am using Firefox 3.6.8 for Canonical 1.0 in Ubuntu 9.10.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the ''Safe mode'' start window.
    You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (on Mac: "Firefox > Quit")

  • Clicking on a link does not open firefox and take me to the page when firefox is my default browser but does when Internet Explorer is my default browser, what is wrong?

    All of a sudden (I think after the last firefox update) links in other web pages won't open firefox to access the page when firefox is my default browser but works when I change my default browser to Internet Explorer and I can't figure out why. Help!!!

    This problem just arose for me today. Very frustrating. Tried all of the suggestions here without success. Then a very simple solution came to me:
    UNINSTALL CHROME. I haven't used Chrome for a long while anyway since it seems to have chronic problems of one sort or another. Firefox does 95% of what I need, and Internet Explorer can handle the other 5%.
    After uninstalling Chrome I clicked a mailto link. It asked me what program to use and did not list Firefox as an option for some reason. In the Tools menu, I chose "Options" and went to the "Applications" tab. Searched for "mailto". There was a single entry - when Chrome was installed it gave me no options to switch. After uninstalling Chrome I was able to change that. It still did not list Firefox, but it did list "Gmail". Selecting that causes my Gmail to open in Firefox.
    I have no idea whether Google or Microsoft is responsible for this, but I'm inclined to give the hairy eyeball to Google for this one. It's the sort of stunt they'd pull on Microsoft, then pretend it was just a mistake. Just one guy's opinion, of course.

  • Where did the result page previews go?

    I've only just noticed that, when I do a search (using Google) I can no longer 'float' my cursor over a result and see a small 'preview' of the page on the right hand side of the result page. I think I remember it was highlighted by two light blue arrows >>.
    This used to be helpful when searching for a subject and a PDF result had it hidden within its pages; The 'preview' highlighted what I was looking for and made it easy to scroll through when opened.
    Is this a result of the latest Safari update (6.0.4), a preference I've somehow mis-clicked or because Google has counteracted this helpful tool?

    google have removed it - the 'cached' result is now via clicking a small down arrow next to the url in the result list
    As we’ve streamlined the results page, we’ve had to remove certain features, such as Instant Previews. 
    Instant previews saw very low usage by our users, and we’ve decided to focus on streamlining the page to benefit more users.

  • When i am typing in a browser window, my browser page shifts slightly, highlights in blue, and does not allow me to keep typing.  i have to keep clicking on the page to continue to type letter by letter...is there some function on that i don't know about?

    When I am typing in a browser window, my browser page shifts slightly, highlights in blue, and does not allow me to continue typing...i have to click in the browser to allow typing to continue...is there a function running that I don't know about?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in Mac OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • Is it possible to have multiple search results page using one Search Enterprise Center site?

    Hi,
    We're using SharePoint 2013 and I'm trying to modify the search results page for one site collection. By default, it uses the search results page from the parent site which is the search center being used by default for the web application. I need to make
    sure that the site collection will only retrieve search results within the site collection (search everything has to be disabled). I found a way but I had to create another search center site to accomplish this, otherwise, it will affect the search center
    site of all other site collections on the web app.
    Now is it possible to have multiple search results page using one Search Enterprise Center site?

    Hi,
    According to your description, you want to retrieve the search results within the site collection.
    As a workaround, you can create a custom result source for the site collection and you will retrieve the search result within the site collection.
    More information about how to create result source in SharePoint 2013, please refer to :

  • Firefox used to distincly highlight previously visited sites (on results page) and 'snap to' the previously used part of the results page. Not any more! Help please.

    Firefox used to distinctly highlight sites already visited when returning to a results page.
    It also used to 'snap to' the area of the results page just visited.
    This no longer seems to happen. Please avise

    ''History not being saved was the solution to chrisjh's problem as solved by lynnebowes.''
    There are a couple of reasons why one might not be able to distinguish between visited and unvisited links on a web page.
    # History is not being preserved. ''(already covered)''
    # Bad web site design.
    '''History must be preserved'''
    :In Firefox '''Tools > Options > Privacy''' picture of " [http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/4928/clearcachew.png Using and Preserving History Settings]"
    '''Bad web site design and some solutions'''
    :There is another reason why one might not be able to distinguish between visited and unvisited sites and that is bad web page design, and one which Mozilla designing web pages should not be guilty of because they build web browsers but how many people can quickly identify between read(visited) and unread(unvisited) pages on Mozilla's pages including this one.
    Web browsers started with some things already in place; links were underlined no one had color monitors and the links were visible when printed. I guess you can tell by the off-color where links probably are. But what is more important is to be able to be able to '''distinguish visited''' from '''unvisited links''' so you don't keep reading the same old article each time, or so that you can find an article you've read before in either case visited links are an important identification in webpages. It's also important to be able to identify what the links are. You wouldn't want to go to one site that uses completely different colors or reversed the normal colors for links-- that would be very confusing.
    Some important tools for users are being to styling off, or to choose the colors. It is a it easier when you have a toolbar button to switch things rather going into '''Tools > Options > General > Advanced''' and mess with colors there.
    Another way is use a theme or a style to change the appearance ([http://www.csszengarden.com/ css Zen Garden]) of a specific website t0 something interesting but not necessarily for conveying information quickly.

  • When I click on an active link from another application, it opens the firefox application, but won't open open the page - it just opens Firefox or takes me to Firefox. No new tab or window is opened and the link is not displayed.

    Firefox sent an email to me to confirm that I had asked the above question. The email had a link to click. When I clicked it from Firefox, nothing happened. Then I opened IE, signed into Comcast, opened the email, clicked the link, and it brought me here.

    using time warner road runner. when I try to open up safari to home page I get error message that this version does not support the "community toolbar" can't proceed until closing the error message. sick of seeing it

    That toolbar/ct plugin seems to cause problems for all who install it!
    Close Safari, then locate and delete the following files and it should be gone:
    /Library/Application Support/Conduit
    /Library/InputManagers/CTLoader
    /Library/Receipts/ctloader.pkg
    /Library/Receipts/<Toolbar name>.pkg
    /Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/CT2285220.bundle
    /Users/<User name>/Library/Application Support/Conduit
    where / is the root library on your Hard Disk.
    If you are running Snow Leopard you should also look here:
    Library/launchAgents/com.conduit.loader.agent.plist
    Library/Application support/conduit plugins
    Also, as mentioned by Gilli2000:
    Library/Receipts - If you read it, it has information in it at the bottom referring extensively to "CT" and "community toolbar".
    Maybe it is harmless, but trash those items anyway!
    Note: Safari does not support any third-party toolbars except those supplied as an extension to Safari via the Extension Gallery.
