Back button in new window not working

When opening a new window and navigating to further pages the back button is still grey and does not work.
When opening a new tab in the same window and navigating to further pages it works correctly.
Therefore the problem is only when opening a new page.
This is different to problems other people are having on this forum as they have problems on all tabs/pages.
Mac OSX 10.4.11
Firefox version 3.6.17

Thanks cor-el for the reply. Your reference to Add-on was very helpful.
It was the add-on called Image Tweak that was causing the problem.
Just as a side point and this is aimed at Firefox, as usual the instructions within the help section of Firefox are for PCs and not Macs. The basic instruction for Safe Mode does not seem to apply to Macs even the 'Hold down shift key' instruction.
Putting in 'Start with Safe Mode Mac' in the search facility comes up with 294 results - none about starting in safe mode.
Thanks again cor-el.

Upon updage, I cannot use back button on new windows that pop-up on link clink but back button is available on the browser window and google toolbar stopped working.

I just updated my firefox and would really like to uninstall the update. My google toolbar is no longer compatible and I am having other issues. When I visit a site that links me to other parts of their site via new windows, the new window i get to has back and foward buttons, but I am unable to use them. Even though I have changed pages, the back button does not go bold and I am unable to get back to any previous pages. I dont have this problem with IE using the same site. I really want to keep using firefox but the new update is making it really hard!

Had problem with bookmarks, history, back button and google links not working.

For the last five days i've had problems with firefox. First, i noticed that it was running incredibly slowly and then that all the links in the google search were not working. Then i noticed that neither was the history, bookmarks or back button. I went on to facebook chat to ask for help. First, I was told to reinstall firefox, which didn't work. Then i was told to do a "clean" install where you rename the old firefox folder in the programs folder so that it makes sure when it's installed that everything is new and nothing is corrupted. That didn't work either. I then disabled my antivirus software and firewall to see if that was causing the problem. It was not. Then I installed an anti-malware program to remove any adware or spywar,e which it did remove from my computer, but it didn't solve the problem. The chat person was at a loss and I don't blame him/her because so was I.
The reason I'm writing this is in case anyone else has the same problem. The only way I solved it was first by uninstalling and making sure to check the little box asking if you want all personal data and such associated with firefox also removed (which removes cookies as well) and then I finally thought to delete all the cookies from the rest of my computer also. Once all the cookies were gone and i had fully uninstalled firefox and personal data, I reinstalled it with a newly downloaded file and it is once again functioning properly. Hope this is helpful to anyone who's been ripping their hair out. :)

'''I have the same problem!!
But in my case, not just Google links.
The problem happens with all the websites links.

JavaScript and "Open In New Window" not working.

I've been using Safari 5 since it came out and there were no problems. But recently my JavaScript has stopped working. Whenever I click on a link that is supposed to run a script nothing happens. Similarly when I click a link that is supposed to open automatically in a new window, nothing happens. I've tried reseting Safari but that did not help. I had this same issue with Safari 4 and the update to 5 solved it, but now I do not know what to do.

HI and welcome to Apple Discussions...
From the Safari Menu Bar click Safari/Preferences then select the Security tab.
Make sure Java is enabled.
And, from a Finder window select your Home Folder in the Sidebar on the left. Then open the Library folder, then the Caches folder, then the com.apple.Safari folder. Move the cache.db file to the Trash.
Relaunch Safari. If you still have problems, go to the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari/Preferences. Make note of all the preferences under each tab. Quit Safari. Now go to ~/Library/Preferences and move this file com.apple.safari.plist to the Desktop.
Relaunch Safari and see if that makes a difference. If not, move the .plist file back to the Preferences folder. If Safari functions as it should, move that .plist file to the Trash.
I had this same issue with Safari 4 and the update to 5 solved it, but now I do not know what to do.
If nothing above helps, install the v10.6.4 Combo Update
Then repair permissions.
Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and *restart your Mac*.

Iview - back button opens new window

hi,
i have an standard-iview in the portal (ESS-travelmanagement).
when i push the 'back' button in portal OR the 'leave' button from a step in the iview a NEW windows opens. but i don't want that, i want to stay on the same window.
any ideas how to do this ? i have this behaviour only on this one iview.
reg, Martin

Hi Martin,
It looks like the check WorkProtect Popup feature is configured on your portal, that allows us to choose our actions when we are trying to navigate from unsaved object.
By default the mode is set to 1: When you open object for editing, edit the object and navigate to another entry point without saving a new window will open with the new navigated entry point and the original window will stay with the edited object.
To change the default setting or more information please attend to SAP Note 734861 - WorkProtect Mode - Global Settings
The end user can also personalize the WorkProtect mode for his login:
Click on the personalize link in the right up corner of the portal. Navigate to WorkProtect mode tab. Change to mode - open page in same window.
Save changes & Close this window.
Log-off from the portal, re-login and check if the changes are effective.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Anagha

Link to Open New Window not working on Intranet

I hope someone can help me. I created a PDF file with pages that contain links. I directed the linked files to open up in a new window. The linked files open in a new window on my hard drive but when I uploaded the pdf file and the links folder to our intranet at work, the links work but the files do not open in a new window. They open in the same window. Please help.
Thanks

Hello Eric,

I installed the Firefox4.0, and since then I have problem with back button. I googled for answers - I noticed many people has the same problem- but, nope, I couldn't find any answers.

"Open Link in new window" not working with OBIEE 10.1.3.4

Hi All,
Recently we upgraded from Siebel Analytics to OBIEE 10.1.3.4.
In OBIEE Go to Settings > Administration > Managae Interactive Dashboard > Select any Dashboard > Right Click on Properties tab > Open Link in New window:
This throws an error saying "javascript:void(null)".
In Siebel Analytisc the above functionality used to work.
Does anyone knows thereason behind this?

Get Firebug and inspect the element. You'll see that it actually is this:
onclick="javascript:saw.runThis
URL('saw.dll?PortalProperties&_scid=To2OnvCVXpY&PortalPath=/shared/paint/_portal/PoC\x2520FINS&Done=ManagePortals\x2526Done\x253dAdmin');return false" href="javascript:void(null)" FF doesn't even give you the "Open..." options and all IE versions as of 7 show them but actually don't do anything when you invoke them.

Open Link in New Window not working

Using iWeb 08, I create a new entry on my blog/news page, highlight the text, go to the link tab, paste in a website, make sure 'Link to an External Page' is selected, and put a tick in 'Open Link in New Window'.
When published it opens in the same window. Is this a bug or how can I correct it?

Try redoing your link and, this time, deselect the link on the page and look at the inspector window to see if anything has changed. Then check the 'make hyperlinks active box". Your linked page should open in the browser when you click the link on the iWeb page.
If this is OK do a "publish all to .Mac" and empty your browser cache before visiting your site.

New windows not working/becoming active

when i click on a link that open a new window, it appears, but when i click on it it clicks through it. i have to reopen the window to then use it. it should just become the new active page when opened, but isn't anymore. any way to fix this?

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.

JavaScript to Open New Window Not Working

I am trying to program a button to open a pop-up window. I
have read several of the previous posts regarding this problem
(seems to be pretty common), and have tried the resolutions, but
still no luck. My button (despite the code) simply just advances to
the next screen. For the button, I have programmed it so it
launches the following JavaScript code:
javascript: openNewWin();
In the standard.js file I have copied the following code per
a previous post:
function openNewWin()
var o = window.open('CDMTS Course Map.htm','Course
Map','left=0, top=0, width=1280, height=800, titlebar=no,
menubar=no, toolbar=no, location=no, directories=no, resizable=yes,
scrollbars=yes, status=no');
o.focus();
In the post that I received this direction, it mentioned
something about putting this code in the Publish folder of
captivate. I'm not 100% sure that I've placed it in the right one,
but I think so.
Can anyone help me with this problem? It seems like such an
easy thing to do!
Thanks,
Kristi
