Firefox not reloading page. Same page reloads w/o problem in other browsers.

I do the graphics layout for three full color magazines and recently found a great program to create flip books for the online viewing of these magazines called Flip Builder. After creating the flip books and posting online, we, along with clients who use Firefox browser have found the flip books will open the first time with no problem. However, if the Refresh/Reload button is hit, the pages will not reload. The round, rotating icon that indicates the load progress simply spins with nothing happening, just a blank screen. The only way to reload the page is by completely closing out Firefox, reopening and re-entering the flip book URL again. Not very convenient for our clients.
This issue only exists with Firefox. Reloading the pages is no problem with Internet Explorer (sorry, had to mention it!) or Opera.
Naturally, our clients use various types of computers, so there is no consistency among users. I am using the most current version of Firefox and noticed this problem immediately.
I've also contacted the makers of Flip Builder and made them aware of this issue.

I have a similar problem. I am building maps using GeoExt. These maps come up fine in all the browsers we've tested (FF, Chrome, IE, Safari), but when the user clicks the reload button in FF, the page tries to load but fails to load components of GeoExt, ones that loaded fine the page load before. If the user hits the reload button again, the page may load correctly or it may not. It appears to be random.
However, if the user places their cursor in the address bar and hits enter, the page loads every time with no problem. This behavior, both the reload button and loading the page from the address bar, is consistent in FF version 5.0 and 9.0.1.

In CS6 my created and then saved jpegs do not have the same icon as jpegs I receive from others. Whe

In CS6 my created and then saved jpegs do not have the same icon as jpegs I receive from others. When attached to email they don't actually attach but appear embedded in the email and vertically squished. Any ideas?

It could be as simple as having two different file extentions jpg vs jpeg. As for the emails, that may depend on how you are attaching them to the email.
In most email programs you can open a new document then choose file attach or file import. Former would be attachments or links and the latter would be embedded.
On windows systems you can also send images to the email app, in the explorer right clicking and sending would open a small app that will resize the image to reduce the file size. This app could in theory squish the image.

Dreamweaver not opening in safari on mac w maverickOS opens in other browsers

It's been working great. I did upgrade to Mavericks a few weeks ago. When I'm testing my site, now dreamweaver does not opening in safari on mac but still opens in other browsers.

Thanks Nancy. Ok, I just tried removing and then adding Safari (shutdown, restart) and it still opens my top sites page in safari when I test. It could be in the settings on Safari . Here's a screen shot of my safari settings.

Firefox not responding when any button is clicked - including "options" and others needed to start it up in safe mode. How can I fix this?

I already tried re-installing but - alas - to no avail. As I stated in my questioon already, Firefox (latest version) doesn't react to anything I click, hence why I am not even able to do the troubleshooting at all nor start the browser in safe mode. In addition to this, no websites are being displayed and all I am able to see is a blank page - no matter which website I actually want to view.
Other browsers work totally fine but due to certain programs, Firefox is necessary and other browsers like Chrome are not an option.

Firefox is not displaying the correct font color on my blog, but other browsers are.

I have a web designer issue. Firefox is not displaying the correct font color on the header in my blog. Explorer, Chrome, and Safari have no problems. The page is in css but this particular section has html code o designate color. The code is as follows:
blog
Though all other browsers display the light orange color designated, Firefox displays white. Strangely, if if retype the code by spelling out a color, Firefox displays it correctly. i.e.
blog
... will give me black. You can see the effect by viewing the link below and looking at the word "blog" in the header, which should be light orange but is not in Firefox.

Actually it also seems to work in the current Firefox 4 beta as it is.
The code is not right though - the correct syntax for the color attribute with hex values is with a # at the start, so:
color="#FF9966"
It might work in Firefox 3.x if you change that.

Google authentication page has accept/cancel button disabled, other browsers work fine

On logging or registering through Google's authentication mechanism oAuth2, the authentication page https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth.... has Accept and Cancel dissabled.
For example on https://www.mindomo.com/login.htm by selecting Google as authentication it takes to page which on which all buttons are disabled.
This mechanism is working fine in other browsers Chrome and IE.

A page ie6 looks different than in other browsers

The site is www.GigHarborWashington.com
When viewed in most browsers it renders correctly. When viewed in ie6 a white border on the right is added with approx 180 pixels. Additionally, a portion of the image behind the nav bar is repeated and the text on the 3rd image is cut off. I tried adding no-repeat to the areas of question and it created problems in ie7
I have attached my css file. Any suggestions on how to repair these problems in ie6 without affecting other browsers?
Thank you,
Mike

Thank you Nancy,
I am off to a meeting but will work on this later and respond if that was the solution or not.
Regards,
Mike

After recent upgrades Firefox prevents links in several websites from working whilst there is no such problem with other browsers - help please.

Since a recent upgrade of Firefox links in several websites no longer work. They used to be fine and I loved Firefox. The problems do not exist with other browsers e.g. Internet Explorer, Google Chrome. More specifically, on talktalk.co.uk the links to news items do not work, nor do those to "My Account." On Barclays.co.uk the link to print my statement doesn't work - similarly on MBNA.com
There are several suggested solutions around the internet but all are complex, none so far have worked and I don't see why I should need to carry out the suggested tweaks. Firefox used to be great - now it isn't. The problem seems to be with the upgrade. Please help me to get my Firefox to where it should be.

Thank you but please don't waste any more time on this. I have done as I said I would - removed and re- installed Firefox, cleared all cookies and caches (CCleaner) - still doesn't work. As I said at the start, the problem is not confined to Talktalk - it applies to several other sites and links. The problem does not occur with Internet Explorer nor with Google Chrome so I am now using those.

This is the only official support forum for Firefox. 
You could be scammed on other sites.
Yesterday, we had a spamming attack on the forums. 
This sort of thing has never happened before, on all of my time with the support forums. 
Sorry if any posts offended you. The moderators are working hard to prevent this sort of thing.
For the best support results, I suggest that you remain on this forum because it is run my Mozilla.

Safari and Firefox not loading pages

Safari and Firefox are now selectively not loading certain pages. Sites like penny-arcade.com and staffingnow.com give me a ...
Safari can’t connect to the server.
Safari can’t open the page “http://www.staffingnow.com/” because it could not connect to the server “www.staffingnow.com”.
message. Now I have tried to empty my cookies, my cache, I have cleared all data that can be cleared. I've renewed my DHCP lease, reset my router, restarted my computer, etc and none of it seems to help.
I've tried loading them on my girlfriend's pc and they load up fine.
Any ideas?

Having the same problem here, only I dont have firefox. Safari refuses to load my webpage www.epicvideo.com.au yet any other computer can access it. I have another site, with the same server, on a similar but cheaper plan, that loads every time.
I have no problems with download speeds, but from reading discussions, some individual sites, hand-picked by Safari, refuse to load. My business website is the only site Safari wont load - I get the error "Bad Request (Invalid Hostname)" - frustrating when running a business!!!!
Ive done it all to, emptied the cache, reset safari, deleted all my book marks (yay), turned off my modem, restarted my server, spoken to tech staff at my STMP and website server... even Mac Heads at Telstra... no answers.
Lastly, im finding discussions not helping too much either, cause im just deleting files and changing settings etc - something that will surely cause me more grief!!

Firefox not printing pages on CNBC correctly.

Latest version of FF, tried in safe mode and still won't print the article on the page beyond the first page. This is happening on every page on CNBC.
This one for sure does not print correctly: http://www.cnbc.com/id/102220450?__source=yahoo|finance|headline|headline|story&par=yahoo&doc=102220450

I'm not sure why, but it seems to be related to the use of the <fieldset> tag around the content. Firefox apparently doesn't paginate that tag as expected.
To see how it would appear in print preview substituting a styled <div> tag, you could run the following snippet of script:
(1) Copy the following to the clipboard (it's all one line):
 var fs = document.querySelector("fieldset"); var dnew = document.createElement("div"); dnew.setAttribute("class", fs.getAttribute("class")); fs.parentNode.insertBefore(dnew, fs); while(fs.childNodes.length > 0) dnew.appendChild(fs.childNodes[0]); dnew.setAttribute("style", "margin:0 2px; padding:0.35em 0.625em 0.75em; border:2px groove #eee;");
(2) On your test page, open Firefox's web console (Ctrl+Shift+k or Web Developer > Web Console)
(3) Paste the code next to the caret (>) and press Enter to run it
(4) Try print preview

Firefox Not Scrolling Page Divisions Correctly

I am working on the css, xhtml, and xml of a store front hosted by another company. We allowed to change certain things in the xhtml, css, and xml to customize out store. We can only use CSS 2 and no javascript or embedding is allowed.
I've designed a vertical scrollable division that contains a series of images that act as links to other pages. In Firefox 3.6.24 when I press down on the vertical scrollbar and move it up or down the content correctly moves up and down, but the mouse stays where I intially pressed down with the mouse and only after I lift up on the mouse does it then jerk to its new position to match the content.
I've played with the preferences of Firefox and also have played with the CSS and XHMTL. On occasion I've also notices this on other internal divisions on other web pages so I am thinking it s Fireffox and not my design. This does not Safari.
Should anything in the about:config be changed?
Firefox 3.6.24; PPC 10.4.11 Mac OS

Are you referring to elements added by the iWeb scripts regarding the circles?
Can you add a screen to clarify what you mean?
"Clear the Cache": Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now" 
"Remove the Cookies" from sites that cause problems: Firefox > Preferences > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies" 
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]]
