Why did my right click and drop down lists suddenly stopped working in firefox? How do get it fixed?

I have the latest firefox there is and one day when i opened it, the right click button stopped working. Then even the drop down litsts stopped working. For example if i click on the firefox icon in the top left corner, nothing happens. I have tried to reinstall firefox. No help. I don't know what to do. So if don't get rid of the problem I guess I'll just have to swich to another broswer, because this is a really really anoying bug...

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Drop down selection menu stopped working on Firefox 16

Hi there,
I have a drop down selection menu (<select></select>) on my website that triggers an ajax function to display a specific table using jquery's datatable. Prior to firefox 16, the selection menu worked fine. I clicked on the menu, and the options showed up. However, ever since I upgraded to firefox16, the selection menu doesn't work as expected anymore :S
Here's the thing, first time I clicked on an option, selection menu expanded, and I can click on any option to trigger the table change function. Everything is working fine till that point.
It's when I clicked on the selection menu the second time, the selection menu stopped working. It didn't even expand and show any options. I checked with firebug (No js error). I tried safemode/hardware acceleration option I read from another thread, it doesn't work either.
I checked with the firebug console log and I noticed the click event was being triggered whenever I clicked on it, but my selection menu somehow just won't expand (The options are in the html). I checked with all the other browsers as well, and everything seems to be fine (Even the previous version of FF).
Strangely enough, when I click on any other elements on the website and then go back to clicking that selection menu, the selection menu seems to have reset to my 1st step's state. (It stopped expanding as soon as I chose an option though and I will have to click on another element again.)

Font in Menu Bar and Drop Down list way too small

I just tried PSE 10 and was very surprised to see that Adobe did not address the problem with the font size being way too small in the menu bar and drop down list. I cannot possibly read the font - so the program is basically unusable. I am using a new 17inch laptop. Is it possible that after all the complaints Adobe didn't fix this problem in PSE 10? Are they even working on it? I love the program but unfortunately I am going to have to switch to something else because there is no way I can read the font and thus cannot use the program at all. Very, very disappointing. Hopefully they are working on a fix???

Photoshop CS5 Essential has preferences that offer users the opportunity to adjust menu bar background color as well as font size. For example,
"UI Font Size
If you find that Photoshop's interface text is a little too small for comfort, you can increase its size by changing the UI Font Size option to either Medium or Large. And no, this option isn't just for old folks with poor eye sight. Working on a very high resolution monitor can make Photoshop's interface text appear very small. Personally, I like to set my font size to Large which I find helps to avoid eye strain. You'll need to close and then re-open Photoshop for the change to take effect:
Change the font size to increase some of the text in Photoshop's interface.

Firefox tab to fields and drop down lists with Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)

Has any one else noticed some problems after upgrading to OS X 10.5? It seems I can't tab to every field, such as the "Keep me signed in for today" checkbox on ebay's login page. I used to tab to it before upgrading. I'm also tabbing past some drop down lists where you select the state where you live in sign up pages. And before you suggest it, I have already turned on "All Controls" in System Preferences->Keyboard & Mouse. I don't think that affects Firefox anyway since it is a system controls option and doesn't affect the actions in a browser window.
Also, some drop down lists no longer drop down. I can focus on the list and even change the value using the up and down arrows, but the full list is no longer displayed. Again, this changed with the upgrade to Leopard.
If any one has experienced these specific issues or something similar please share your thoughts and solutions.

I am also having the drop down problem on my macbook, it's getting really annoying. On top of that, twice today (i just got the macbook three days ago) my keyboard will just stop working- i cannot type in firefox nor in finder or word.

Tables and Drop Down Lists

This is my first time using LiveCycle Designer (8.2)
I've tackled quite a few things thanks to the information I've found in these forums, but I have reached my complexity limit.
I am trying to create a survey form that follows a process map with sub-process maps.
Just to provide an idea of magnitude, one process map has eleven sub-process maps.
I created a dynamic table with the ability to add and delete rows on a flowed page.
The first row first column contains a drop down list.
For each selection in the drop down list, the form requires eight inputs.
Currently, I just copied the dynamic table for each subprocess.
Each sub process map will have a running calculated total based on two inputs and a cost based on input.
The overall process map will have the same.
The entire section should seperatly show a sum total.
I don't really know what would be best, but was thinking something along these lines:
based on the selection in the drop-down-list, if someone selects one of the sub-process maps
the row changes to allow the drop-down-list to be the one associated with that subprocess and
the two running totals show up and remain at the bottom of the table.
Only problem, is I have no idea how to do this.
I have tried making the tables invisible, but they still show the input areas of the input boxes.
Anyone feel like helping me figure this out?
Also, isn't there a way I can populate a drop down list using EXCEL? I don't want to manually input thousands of process titles.
Oh, I don't have any XML capabilities, I am not connected to a server or any database, and everything runs at the client.

Thanks for the input, I will watch the video.
I was suprised that no one offered up any suggestions.
I changed the design of the form. I didn't want to, but I was able to get the product out on time.
Just out of curiousity,
Can I have a dynamic drop down list (A = {a1, a2, a3, a4}) that populates another drop down list (B = {b1, b2, b3, b4, b5} ) in table (Tb1) with one of the choices in the second drop down list (B = {b5}) is a dynamic choice that makes multiple expanding tables (Tc2, Te4, Tf5 out of a total of seven tables) appear each with their own (unique) drop down list?
Or,
Would it be easier to have the first choice (i'm probably using this word incorrectly) "index" the options for the other drop down lists, etc....

It could be due to a Windows Update.

My Drop down list won't work in Adobe Reader 9

I have a form that I created in Adobe Designer 7 but have opened and saved in Adobe Designer 9 (also redid the connection string, because it didn't like 7's). Now I can open and use the form normally in Adobe Acrobat Pro 7 and 9 and in the PDF previews of both Designers. But Adobe Reader 9 won't let the drop down list function the way it is supposed to. Also my form has fields that are binded to a SQL Server 2K5 database.
Now if Adobe Reader does not allow database connections or fields binded to them, is there a way to get similar functionality in any way?

Reader Extended? Is that when you open the PDF in Acrobat Pro, go to Advanced, and click "Extend Features in Adobe Reader"? I did that and it still didn't work. Matter of fact it locked up the PDF when I tried to open it in Acrobat Pro 7 or 9.
Or is that Adobe Reader Extension ES package?

Drop-down list won't work at the bottom of a page

I'm having a problem in my forms with drop-down lists that are situated at the bottom of a page. When the list drops down, only the first few values can be chosen. Any that fall too far down the list, and thus hover over top of the next page, cannot be selected. In this situation, the scroll bar for the list actually scrolls the entire document. Very weird. Has anyone expreienced this before? Perhaps I'm making a simple mistake.

Does it help if you disable hardware acceleration ?

JS Validation for Drop down List is not working in Oracle PL/SQL Package

Hi All,
I am facing an issue with JavaScript validation done in Oracle PL SQL package.
System Requirement:
There is one screen which contains two fields viz. FLD 1 & FLD 2 and one 'Submit' button.
FLD 1 and FLD 2 fields are drop down list boxes.These are mandatory fields.
The screen is developed in Oracle Mod PL SQL package.
The html coding and java scripting are embedded in the respective Oracle PL SQL Package procedure which generates this screen,takes the input values provided by user,does the
field validations and submits the form.
Issue:
The javascript validation for FLD 2 dropdown is working successfully.
When the user leaves this field as blank,the embedded javascript pops up an error message 'Selection of FLD 2 is manadatory before submitting the form!'.
As FLD 1 is also a mandatory field,the javascripting validation should pop up the similar error message 'Selection of FLD 1 is manadatory before submitting the form!'.
But,this first field validation is not at all working.
The system allows to submit the form even if the 'FLD 1' is left blank.
The javascript code sysntax for validation of FLD 1 & FLD 2 drop down list boxes as follows:
function validate_form_fields()
if (document.forms[0].p_fld_1.selectedIndex == 0))) || (document.forms
[0].p_fld_1.selectedIndex < 1 )
alert("Selection of FLD 1 is manadatory before submitting the form!!!");
return false;
else if (document.forms[0].p_fld_2.selectedIndex == 0))) || (document.forms
[0].p_fld_2.selectedIndex < 1 )
alert("Selection of FLD 2 is manadatory before submitting the form!!!");
return false;
return true;
I am viewing the screen from the web browser IE version 8.0.
Your timely help will really be appreciated.
Regards & Thanking in advance,
Alka

Hi,
1. Your problem is actually related to JavaScript, not SQL and PL/SQL. So, this is the wrong forum to post. The closest to JS is the Application Express forum {forum:id=137}. Clearly state that it is not an Apex issue and that you are looking for JS help.
2. Your JS code, the way you has posted it, is syntactically incorrect, so if you post on Apex forum put the correct code and in tags as described in the FAQ
{quote}
function validate_form_fields()
if (document.forms[0].p_fld_1.selectedIndex == 0))) || (document.forms
[0].p_fld_1.selectedIndex < 1 )
alert("Selection of FLD 1 is manadatory before submitting the form!!!");
return false;
else if (document.forms[0].p_fld_2.selectedIndex == 0))) || (document.forms
[0].p_fld_2.selectedIndex < 1 )
alert("Selection of FLD 2 is manadatory before submitting the form!!!");
return false;
return true;

Right click, open Link in New Tab stopped working

Right clicking on a link in page and selecting either open link in new tab or window does NOT work. Nothing hapens. Just started the other day. Also cannot use Ctrl and right click. Works in Chrome. Right click and paste, etc work.

Try a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before reinstalling a fresh copy of Firefox.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 18.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you will also lose your personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.

Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.

Drop down list setSelected not working

Hi all,
I have a drop down list bound to a database (value: int, display: string). There are two pages:
page 1: a table with id needed for page 2 (id passed through the url)
page 2: drop down list bounded to a database. The selected value comes from page 1.
Problem: Even though I am getting the correct value, and am using ddList.setSelected (id), the ddList value does not change.
I basically want to know how to program the functionality of the "selected" property in java with a table bound to a database.
Any ideas?

Hi There,
Looks like a user on this thread was able to set his drop down list value dynamically, take a look
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?forumID=881&threadID=5055898
here is what the user comments
Any way I have solved my problem
1.Change the value field of dropdown from int to string, so value field and display fields are same.
2. dropdown1.setvalue("abc");
this solution will only work if the value field is String.
Hope it helps
Thanks

In email, when entering address, the drop down list contains old email addresses. How do I remove them?

In email on my IPAD, when typing an address into the to: field, the drop down list which appears has old email addresses. How do I remove them?

Removing addresses from the Contacts list will not solve this. Apparently it will take time for such addresses to be pushed off the drop down list.

Why did my right click and drop down lists suddenly stopped working in firefox? How do get it fixed?
