Drop down menus in firefox

Hi, can anyone tell me why these drop down menus are working
in firefox 1
but not in firefox 2.0.0.6.
They were working ok in all browsers and I have now made the
site template
based and the issue is since then...not exactly sure at what
stage it
stopped working.

Anyone spotting any more anomalies please shout up, I seem to
be finding
lots......
Thanks,
Karen

Hi David - thanks for looking. Ha yes, its one of those bang
hand onto
forehead moments....... I'd been testing another site and
totally forgot it

reason... BTW have
just recently bought 2 of your books and am very excited
about getting into
them, they look like just the hand holding approach i need
Thanks,
Karen

Right-click, drop-down menus in Firefox 15 cause entire Mac OS 10.7.4 system to hang, forcing manual reboot.

I bought a new MacBook Pro.
I am running Mac OS 10.7.4 with Firefox 15. Every time I right click or try to use a drop-down menu in Firefox, it causes the entire system to hang, forcing a manual reboot.
No crash reports are available as the Firefox does not actually crash.
I have tried
1.) Starting Firefox in safe mode
2.) Disabling all the add-ons
3.) Resetting Firefox
4.) Removing and re-installing Firefox
5.) Disabling hardware acceleration
The problem still occurs.
This is critical a critical issue as I have been using Firefox's Zotero plugin to write my PhD dissertation which is about 50% complete and now I cannot use Firefox or the Zotero plugin and have about 800 references I do not want to have to manually re-enter!! Also it is preventing me from continuing work on the dissertation as I am unable to insert references, and I have submit this thing by March!!!!

Ok, further developments. Still can't get Firefox to work; it makes Lion hang and I have to force a reboot. I tried using terminal to open FF's profile manager, delete my old profile and make a new one. Same problem.
I tried making a new user account in Mac OS, and doing another fresh install of Firefox. It worked! I was able to use drop down menus and right click without crashing the system!
However, as soon as I installed the Zotero plugin... the same issue started occurring again.
Dear programmers, please help me. It will literally take me weeks of work to re-do all of my citations using a different software or manually. There must be a way to fix this problem!

Problem with drop down menus in firefox 4

when I scroll over a drop down menu, for example when I right click and put the cursor over one of the options it goes black. If I scroll over one of the menu bar drop down menus as I move over one of the options it stays highlighted in gray. I am running firefox 4 and have already tried turning on the menu bar and turning off hardware acceleration

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

I ran Advance System Care 3 Disk Optimizer program and now my drop down menus are too fast. How do I slow them down

I ran Advanced System Care3 disk optimizer program on my computer and now the drop down menus in Firefox open too fast. Mostly in the Bookmarks menu with nested folders. I went into the registry and changed all the "MenuShowDelay" data values back to 400(which were changed to 200 by the program. All the other windows programs drop down menus went back to the original speeds and are fine. Firefox did not change back to it's original delay speed. Where is the registry entry or configuration file for Firefox? How can I slow the menu down?
Thanks,
Tony

After navigating (sometimes downloading pictures, sometimes not) for approximately 10 minutes, I can no longer see contents of drop down menues, then Firefox freezes up and I have to use Ctrl/Alt/Delete to end my internet experience.

All drop down menus opens and hides emmideately on ubuntu 14 with touch screen display

Hi!
On ubuntu 14 with ViewSonic TD2340 touch monitor ("Advanced Silicon S.A CoolTouch(TM) System" touch panel) all drop down menus in firefox (in other system applications drop down menus works fine) opens and hides emmideately (I can't select any element in it).
I can't use special system function "Click on Focus", because it is just like double click - drop down menus shows with delay, but it is not real to work in ubuntu - I always have 2 clicks instead 1.

How can I correct the problems I've been experiencing lately with drop-down menus in general as well as and leading of text. It 's occurring on both Safari and Firefox browsers.

The above headline pretty much covers the problems.
Access to the drop down menus is erratic. Sometimes it's problem-free, but at other times it's impossible to see the options on the menu, or if they are visible, it's impossible to effect a change by clicking on one of them. The times I notice it most is when I am trying to change fonts or font sizes, but it occurs at other times, as well.
It's also frustrating to have to deal with double spacing (for example, when describing items on eBay). Sometimes the text flows normally, but if I force a return, the text that follows usually is double-spaced.
Often, the justification option does not work either.
Occasionally, I can get around one problem or another by switching back and forth between Safari and Firefox, but eventually, the original problem resurfaces.
Because it happens on both browsers, eBay tech support is inclined to think the problem is in my software. (I'm inclined to agree.)
Although they have suggested clearing the history in FF, that option must have been relocated, because it'sno longer under the "Tools" menu, where it was in the past. I also can't find the clear your cache option on OS Safari or 10.8.3.

I don't think it'd help much but clearing history is now in the History menu, and setting FF to clear history on exit is near the bottom of the Privacy tab of FF Preferences.
Also, if you don't have the Develop menu in Safari, open Safari preferences, click Advanced, and select “Show Develop menu in menu bar.” You'll find "Empty Caches" there.

I am having some serious issues with firefox, i can't print anything because it is stuck on fax and I can't use any of the drop down menus on any site

I am having some serious issues with firefox to the point of choosing another search engine. I can't print anything because it is stuck on fax and won't let me change it to my printer when i do try to select my printer it jumps right back to fax. The drop down menus do not work on any of the sites I go to. For example when purchasing clothes and you have to choose a size from a drop down menu I can't do it when I click on the drop down menu it doesn't work at all. I don't have a virus I ran my virus protector and no viruses are present. I don't have any suspicious issues going on with my computer so there has to be something in Firefox that is causing my issues. I tried internet explorer and I don't have any issues there. I hope you can help me because I love Firefox and would really like to continue to use it.

Lots of issues there, main one getting fcpx going again, try deleting the preferences using the utility deveoped by these guys.

Drop down menus on certain websites (ie ESPN) are no longer working on Firefox but work with both Chrome and IE on same computer so I believe its Firefox issue.

I tried updating Firefox to 19 and then even the Beta 20 version. I have rebooted computer countless times. On the same computer, I can open IE and bring up ESPN and the drop down menus work fine so I know its not a computer issue and it must have something to do Firefox. I tried the "starting in safe mode" and disabling add ons because I saw those suggestions but that didnt work. I also tried unchecking the box about hardware acceleration because I saw that suggested also and needless to say that didnt work either. Can someone please please help me, its very frustrating.

The menu on the ESPN site is generated via JavaScript, so make sure that you aren't blocking JavaScript if the menus aren't working.

Firefox 4: the drop down menus in the top menu bar will not appear in Google pages.

''locking as a duplicate - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/808729''
Firefox 4: the drop down menus in the top menu bar will not appear in Google pages. For example, when I click "more" it is like clicking a dead link. Nothing happens. When I click the "tools" icon or my email address to log out, same thing.

Could you do the following please.
In the location bar at the top, type '''about:config''' and hit Enter
In the filter at the top, copy/paste the following setting:
'''browser.urlbar.maxRichResults'''
If the figure on the right is a single number, or a minus figure i.e. '''-1''', right click it, choose '''Modify''', remove the current setting and replace it with the figure "'''12'''".
Then close Firefox and restart it again.
I went to Google Maps, but as you can see from the screenshot, directions appear to be working.
You could also try creating a new Profile. See [[Managing profiles]]

Thanks a bunch! This worked for me, unlike the other solution I've seen floating around which is to disable context menus in your advanced Javascript settings.

Gmail drop-down menus (Move to, Labels) and emails and Facebook chat will not open.

I am unable to open emails in standard Gmail. Emails can be opened after switching to the basic html version. I am also unable to use the drop-down menus, such as "Move to" or "Labels." The button turns gray, but the options do not appear.
Facebook chat is giving me a similar problem. When I click "Chat" in the bottom left, it acts as though it's trying to load but does not open up to reveal friends.
I have tried the following: deleting cookies, reinstalling Java, updating my vid card drivers, and uninstalling/reinstalling Firefox
Scans for viruses and spyware have yielded no results. I use AVG, Spybot, and Malwarebytes. The Gmail emails and menus will open in IE8.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

Lost all the text in my drop down menus

All of a sudden I do not see any text in my drop down menus or on pop-ups. I tried to open Safari and got the pop up menu with a yellow triangle with a black exclamation point in it. It also had the three buttons at the bottom - one was blue - but no words.
I can open Firefox but not Safari. I can open the System Preferences widget but all I see are the icons, not the names of the choices. No matter what application is open I do not see any words in the dropdown menu.
First I tried zapping the PRAM. Didn't work. Then I booted from the startup disk and ran the disk repair utility, it repaired several things, but I'm still having the problem.
The font on my menu bar has changed too.
I installed x11 two days ago - not from the startup disk but from a website a friend helped me find when I didn't have my disk with me. I also installed Open Office. Should I uninstall those?
Is it possible I got a virus?? I have no clue how to deal with a virus on a Mac. I haven't had any trouble with my iBook since I got it in November 2005, and I don't know any tricks.

hi Rina!
my apologies, i'm guessing from your name that you might be from a non-english-speaking location ... if so, check to see if this is an issue for you (also see other posts in the thread):

I can no longer use any type of drop down when on Firefox. Internet Explorer drop downs work so I know it is not an overall setting problem. I hate Internet Explorer. Please help me fix this issue in Firefox!

When I am on a website like say Southwest Airlines and there are drop down menus to choose dates, cities, etc. The drop down flashes quickly and then goes away. I can't use the drop down on the next question -- This happened.

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
