Double-loading pages in Firefox

Hoping someone else has seen this and has a quick answer.
When I publish my project (RH6) and open it in Firefox 2, clicking
on links frequently flashes the page loaded by the link, but then
reloads the page from which the link was originally clicked.
Clicking on the link a second time then seems to work and loads the
linked page.
Any thoughts?
Patrick

Thanks, but I've found all of those already. I wouldn't call
this the answer by any means.
The only "solution" I've seen posted yet, is to not use
linked books (i.e. books which are linked to pages themselves).
This is not a viable solution for me, as my project has hundreds of
those. And obviously it should work with those, otherwise RoboHelp
wouldn't let you link books to pages. The product doesn't do what
it is supposed to when the end user uses Firefox. That is a bug
which has not yet been resolved.
I would have thought that this is either a problem with
Firefox mis-interpreting the javascript used by RoboHelp or that
there is a genuine problem with the scripting provided by RoboHelp.
Either way, it appears to be a 2+ year old problem with hasn't been
addressed by the makers of RoboHelp (which has obviously changed
numerous times over the years).
The problem is NOT addressed in RoboHelp 6 (issued by Adobe).
I've already posted in another forum to find out if it's been
addressed in RoboHelp 7, but I'm not getting my hopes up as I've
not had any responses.
I find it hard to believe that, with all of the other script
fixes that have been posted for other problems, this one hasn't yet
been figured out by anyone. It must be tricky.
My only other note is the symptom only occurs when the
containg book is un-expanded. That is, if the book containing the
page to which you've linked is expanded, even if it's multiple
levels deep and all other books above it are collapsed, the problem
doesn't occur. It only occurs if the book directly above the page
you're trying to load (containing that page) is collapsed.

Suddenly my firefox loads SO slowly. I launch firefox first and then Safari and Safari loads pages before firefox enen begins too. Also a LOT more adds show pages I looked at previously.

Several weeks ago Firefox suddenly was / is very slow to load all pages. I launch Firefox. Wait. Launch Safari. Safari loads page while I am still waiting for Firefox.
Why?

Do you use NoScript? There's possibly an issue with NoScript where certain settings cause Firefox to load HTTPS pages on startup very slowly.

Facebook wont load pages in firefox

Its loading apps but not messages or friends profiles and it wont open facebook itself I have to go through emails from facebook to get there.
firefox error console is coming up with:
Error: Permission denied for (document.domain=) to call method UnnamedClass.toString on (document.domain has not been set).
Error: Permission denied for (document.domain has not been set) to call method Location.toString on (document.domain=).
How do I fix it?

Select everything, then in the check boxes ONLY select cookies and cache and then click Clear Now.

Safari won't load pages but Firefox does.

My problem seems to be a common one lately. Safari seems to not want to load any pages that have java script on them including the apple.com site. Firefox does this without hesitation. This problem had been intermittent until the recent java update which has now made Safari unusable.
Will reverting back to the previous java version potentially work, and if so how is this accomplished.
I am not looking for everyone's speculations as to what MAY be the cause, I would like a definitive answer as to how to get Safari functional at minimum. If someone has been able to figure out a proper fix, then only that person should reply so as to keep others from having to pour over multiple posts of information that are frustrating at best.
I thank in advance whomever can provide a proper response.

HI,
Try this. Go to Applications/Utilities then launch Java Preferences.
Select the General tab.
Click the button next to: In their own process
Quit Java Preferences and relaunch Safari.
This is working for some users, others not but might be worth a try and you can always change it back.

Everyone's configurations are different. We don't speculate. We troubleshoot. We can only go on the information that you give us.
You changed your profile from Mac OS X 10.5 to 10.6. Which Mac OS X are you running??
If you are running 10.5.5, you need to update your system software to 10.5.8. You can use the v10.5.8 Combo Update

Firefox Having IE errors, acting like IE? pages double load?

As of like the past week i have been having a problem with firefox. Sometimes i cannot load pages , it loads the pages for a split second then i end up at a Internet exploer cannot display webpage screen. covers all pages ive tried... lately it has been working and loading pages but firefox is acting like IE, for example downloads use individual progress windows like IE insted of the tabbed download fire fox uses, pages seem to double load when first loaded and opened..and over all everything seems slow...tried running malware bytes, superanti spyware aand ad aware with no luck, downloaded the latest firefox from mozilla.com same issues... oh and i just tried to copy and paste add ons/extensions but everytime i click on the window it closes the add on screen???

I was having the exact same issue, firefox was acting like IE.
Ctrl F brought up the IE find dialogue, right click did not have "Open link in new tab", and so on.
I uninstalled "firefox accelerator" add-on and the problem was resolved.
Oddly, when Firefox restarted and attempted to reload my windows, each window address had the prefix :
chrome://ietab2/content/reloaded.html?url=
but I don't have the chrome browser installed.
Seems like Firefox Accelerator is some kind of malware!

Internet disruption...Problem loading page

Hello,
I have a Macbook OS X 10.5 and lately whenever I open up Safari or Firefox 3.5.7 to general websites, I receive a "Problem loading page. Firefox can't find server." Once I hit the try again button, everything usually works but I am worried that I may firewall problems. It's not like I'm surfing **** sites, I'm looking up my gmail account or mlb.com and it's saying they don't recognize these addresses. I removed my cookies thinking that would alleviate the problem but the internet is still screwy. Any ideas?
It's not the connection. I'm hooked up to an online modem at home and at work where the issue occurs in both offices.
Any advice is greatly appreciated,
Ryan

Mine freezes as inbox is displayed. It appears Gmail chat doesn't load properly and the Gmail footer doesn't load and FF 3.6.4 appears to freeze. CTRL ALT DEL to close FF.

I was having issues with firefox so I upgraded to firefox 4. I am connected to the internet but when I open firefox or even internet explorer it says Unable to connect problem loading page. Nothing will pull up!!! No help link or anything!!?

I don't know if you are still having the issue but if you are have you contacted your ISP? It sounds to me like it's more of a connectivity issue than a browser problem. I've dealt with similar things several times and in both cases it was something with the modem or an ISP setting.
I'm also wondering if it could be a Wi-Fi issue. Can you log in to your router? (It varies by brand but you would go to a site such as http://192.168.10.1. That is for Trendnet. The information for yours should be in the documentation that came with it.)
You should be able to get the router log in page to come up even if you can't connect to any websites. (Provided the network is set up correctly.)
I also would double check your connection settings (if you're connecting over Wi-Fi) or your ethernet connection. (If you're connected directly to the modem and router.)
Hopefully one of these suggestions will be helpful.

None of the stuff in " http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locked_or_damaged_places.sqlite " helps. I have tried and tried and I have even wipe the computer clean still didn't help. I got the same problem as he/she has got in the first posted. Can add some web pages but not all the web pages I want.. I should have never updated to 3.6.13... That's when it all started for me, from that version..... Now Version 3.6.14 is out, I was hoping the version 3.6.14 might would fix the problem wrong again....
Funny thing is i can not even Bookmark Firefox.com!!!!!...lol
So any ideas on how to fix it other than the link giving would help.
Thanks.

Firefox 3.6.8 fails to load any page if I open Outlook2003 after starting Firefox. Outlook also fails to send/receive although I am able to load pages in another browser. These problems do not seem to occur if I open Outlook first and then firefox.

I have used Firefox and outlook for years, but this is a recent problem. I can't recall if it started after the latest Firefox update or not. Firefox seems to work fine until I open Outlook. Then it is impossible to load any pages; the loading icon appears and persists indefinately. The only way to load pages is to shut down and restart my pc. Simply exiting and reopening Firefox does not work.
Additionally, the send/recieve process in outlook fails. My ISP has checked my line and there is no fault. I have confirmed this, since I am able to access the internet on another browser while Firefox is hanging.
I have tried disabling add-ons, clearing the cache and checked connection settings (I use system proxy settings), but the problem persists.
I'd be grateful for any help.

Firefox has been randomly crashing for two days. I always have google and facebook running. Firefox seems to crash at random times - no specific web page loading. My Firefox is up to date.

I get problem loading page (error 404) it says the page cannot be found when i try to access the game Mobsters through my mysapce account and i cannot access it no longer through firefox and i want to find out why i cant, can you guys please help?

i cant access my mobsters account through myspace. every time i try to access it i get "problem loading page" "this page cannot be found" "404 error" and it wont let me access it. myspace works fine but as soon as i click on the mobsters app i get the 404 error, this page cannot be found, problem loading page! can you please help?
== This happened ==

I dont understand the answer
'''''""The problem can be solved by opening FF and choosing Tools...Add On's...select the SEARCH addon and choose UNINSTALL...restart FF browser when asked, then reload Mobsters. This worked for me. The suggestion on the 404 that says to remove Search via Add/Remove Programs is completely BS, as Search doesnt show there. ""'''''

Firefox ver. 3.6 stopped loading pages of any kind. Even Google or Facebook! Maybe it's because I tried to download a program that didn't even open up. All other browsers work normally.

My Firefox ver. 3.6 stopped loading pages of any kind. Even Google or Facebook! I don't know how this happened. May it is because I tried to download a program that didn't even open up.... But I don't know how to make it work. All other browsers work normally, and I'm scanning for viruses even though my anti-virus did not warn me of anything... I tried to download a keygen and this is what happened. I can't figure out what it is. Not a connection problem. I even tried to uninstall an re-install firefox, but still nothing worked.

Firefox won't load pages unless mouse is moving or keyboard is pressed

Hello,
I've seen this problem listed several times prior to this post, but none of the solutions have helped me.
I've been using Firefox for ages and the last 3 updates or so have been exhibiting this issue. When I attempt to load a website, Firefox will begin to take me to the page and then hang. The circle in the tab will stop moving and it will sit there until I move the mouse or press a button on the keyboard. As long as the mouse is continuously moving or keyboard buttons are pressed, the page will load fine. The same thing happens with YouTube. The video will start and then freeze unless the mouse/keyboard is moved. Firefox also exhibits this behavior when I try to download a file from a website. The download will start and then hang until I move the mouse or press a button, then it will continue for a few seconds and hang again until I repeat the mouse movement or keyboard button press.
So far, I've tried updating Firefox, Java and Flash; starting Firefox in Safe Mode; uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox: doing a complete uninstall and reinstall of Firefox with profile removal and creation. I've run the following ad and malware detection tools with no infections found: Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, AdwCleaner, SuperAntispyware, Microsoft Safety Scanner, Windows Defender, Spybot Search & Destroy, Kasperky Free Security Scan and Anti-rootkit utility TDSSKiller.
The only thing that I've tried that "seemed" to work was starting Windows in Safe Mode with networking and running Firefox there. I was able to watch YouTube videos without freezing and websites appeared to load properly. Obviously, I can't run in Safe Mode all the time.
I've attached a screenshot of what it looks like when Firefox hangs on Google News. Notice that the images partly load, but a good number of them are either waiting or not loaded.
I hope someone can help me, since I really like Firefox and I'd hate to switch to Chrome or (shudder) IE.
Thanks in advance for your help!

Firefox 12 is very slow to load pages and if two tabs are opening it lags.

Firefox 12 is very slow to load pages and if two tabs are opening it lags. I've tried everything (e.g virus, defrag, I've created a new profile in "run", etc). I've had my router/line etc all checked and after 2 weeks of cleaning/testing etc its all pointing to Firefox as the problem. Please help as it's driving me nuts.

I have the exact same problem.
Not only does it load pages very slowly, sometimes the page will stop for a good 45 seconds and stop loading, only to finish it much later.
Something is wrong with Firefox 12, it shouldn't be this slow.
How is that each version is progressively worse than the one before it?.
Stop releasing so many versions Mozilla, release one that works and build from there.

Pages VERY slow to load since downloading Firefox 6.0. How do I fix or reinstall old version please!

Since I downloaded the latest version - 6.0 of Firefox, I am having serious slowness of page loads. Nothing has changed in my PC or Network configuration and in the past have had very fast loading of everything - even streaming of videos, etc. The only thing I found in your help about all pages loading slowly was something about a proxy add ons issue - but I don't have that enabled. It seems to be even worst when I am submitting a form -

Is that the answer to everything. How about a real fix. Pages refuse to load. If you hit the stop loading page button and then hit refresh, the page will load. If you don't the page will try to load forever. I left a page for over a hour and it never did load. If Firefox releases one more update like this I'm done. I tried to go back to Firefox 5.0, but now whatever they did to screw up 6.0 is doing the same to 5.0. I tried deleting Firefox and starting over with a fresh install for both, but still just garbage. Also, the whole time I've been typing this another page in another tab as been trying to load. Is Firefox updating without testing this stuff because there is a security problem? Rats!
