Java is not running in Firefox, but runs in other browsers.
I am trying to run java in my Firefox 3.6.13 browser.
Java works perfectly in Internet Explorer, but I rather use fire fox.
I have java installed, and it appears in my (about:plugins) page as all enabled.
yet when I go to the java website to detect java, I end up watching the swirling bar go on forever and then it reports I have no java installed.
Every page that uses java appears blank, the page loads around the java perfectly, but its just an empty space where anything java is.
I made sure to check the control panel and make sure it is enabled for mozilla family as well as the next gen java is selected. unfortunatley no matter how many times I uninstall java/fire fox, and re install, Java will not work
The ''' "Search" ''' box isn't going to do you any good, you need the '''Run''' box. There isn't a "file" in the Firefox Program Files folder that you can use to launch the Firefox SafeMode. ''Firefox 4.0 has a fix to get around this problem in Vista and Win7, so you won't have to activate the '''Run''' box.''
See if this works in Windows 7: <br />

As above, the bar across the bottom, which shows the URL, the "lock" symbol on secure sites, etc., IS NOT THERE on any firefox page I open. It is there on other browsers but I would like to continue using firefox. What should I do?
In Firefox 4 and later you no longer have the Status bar that showed the padlock in previous Firefox versions.<br />
The padlock only shows that there is a secure connection and doesn't guarantee that you are connected to the right server.<br />
So you might still be connected to the wrong server if you make a typo in the URL and someone has claimed that mistyped URL.
The functionality of the padlock has been replaced by the [[Site Identity Button]] on the left end of the location bar.

You can use this extension to get a padlock on the location bar.

My gmail Contacts will not load in Firefox, but OK in other browsers Please advise
For months now, in each versions of Firefox, when I open my gmail and click of Mail/Contacts, an''' oops''' error message appears, and the Contacts will not load. However, in other browsers, IE and Chrome there is no problem, so it '''has''' to be a Firefox problem. Please help to solves this.
Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache.
* Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
* Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
* Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)
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.

After downloading the latest Windows updates I found that I could not play videos on YouTube or at other sites. Switching to other browsers I found I could play those same videos now without any problem. So I did a System Restore to determine if the Windows updates had affected video play using Firefox. The restore point was set to the day before the Windows download occurred. After System Restore was completed I could now play videos using the Firefox browser.
To make sure that the Windows update was the problem, I again downloaded the newest Windows Updates and once again could not play videos on any site using Firefox. System restore was used to again reset my computer to the day before and once again the videos would ow play in the Firefox browser.Actually your reply took me in another direction and I found this on the Adobe site:
The RealPlayer extension for Firefox, Downloading & Recording, has compatibility issues with Flash Player 11.3. If RealPlayer is installed Flash Player content does not appear. YouTube provides an error message when you try to watch a video.
As a workaround, do the following:
Start RealPlayer.
Click the RealPlayer icon in the upper-left corner and select Preferences.
Select Download & Recording in the left menu and deselect Enable Web Download & Recording for These Installed Browsers option.
Click OK and restart Mozilla Firefox.
Once I followed this I could now again play videos in Firefox. -
Java is not working with Firefox (but is working with Safari)
My computer is showing that Java is not enabled via Firefox. When I try to go into Tools/Add-ons, I see that there is no Java plug-in on that list (though I previously had no problem with Java). When I run software update on my Mac, it tells me my software is all up to date. Not sure what else to do. Java is working in Safari, so the problem is clearly with Firefox. I've tried disabling all my plug-ins, and clearing my cache. Nothing has helped.
Apple has removed support for the Java Plugin2 with the latest Java Update 10 for OS X 10.5 Java version, so the Java plugin is no longer available for Firefox versions and other browsers like Google Chrome that require the Java Plugin2.
There will be fix for this in Firefox 6 or in Firefox 5.0.1 if that version will be released, so that Firefox will find the plugin again.
I don't know if all Java applets will still be working on OS X 10.5 with this fix (Apple recommends updating to OS X 10.6).

Video will not play in IE but works in other browsers
I have a flv video on a page which was placed there using Dreamweaver CS4. It plays in all other browsers I test it in except IE7. (Firefox, Chrome, Safari) Others verify it dooesn't play in IE7 also. Doesn't even play when I test in 'preview in browser' while in DW. Page passes validation. Can't for the life of me see why. Any ideas.
http://www.princetonmarketing.net/new/pmg-production.htmlYou've got all these references to scripts but I'm certain you don't need them all. Is this an older page created in an earlier version of DW?
<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
<script src="Scripts/swfobject_modified.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="Scripts/AC_RunActiveContent.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="Scripts/AC_RunActiveContent.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
Try commenting out the JavaScripts running on your page and then systematically re-introduce 1 at a time to see where the culprit is.

Named destination not working in Firefox 3.6.3, other browsers are ok
I've added several named destinations to a PDF. Links to the named destinations within the PDF are working correctly in IE8, Safari and Chrome, but not Firefox 3.6.3. (PC/Windows 7)
With Firefox all the links to named destinations take you to the first page of the PDF instead of to the named destination within the PDF. I've tried changing the format of the links (a href="http://www.anysite.com/mypdf.pdf#location1") instead of (a href="http://www.anysite.com/mypdf.pdf#nameddest=location1"). No success with Firefox. Other browsers are fine.
I'd be interested if anyone else has had a similar issue and whether there are any successful workarounds/solutions.
Thanks a bunch.The PDF contaning the named destinations was created with Acrobat 9.3.2 Professional.
Since the links to the named destinations are working fine with IE, Chrome and Safari, I'd tend to think this is a Firefox issue, but welcome other ideas. -
Sound has stopped for firefox but works on other browsers! Why?
I no longer have sound with the Firefox browser. Sound works for other browsers (Chrome, Safari, I.E.) but not for FF. I looked in options, plug ins, etc. I have done everything I could to get the sound to work again to no avail. This all started after the latest update for FF. Please help>
Hi Skytyler13,
There are a few different things that might be causing your issue. Have you looked at the Knowledge Base article [[No sound in Firefox]]? It has a lot of good information that might help you.
Hopefully this helps! -
I was watching a video of a musician on YouTube and all of a sudden, there was no sound. I tried it using Chrome and had no problem. I refreshed Firefox, but still no sound. Can anyone help?
If you have problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions then check this:

The tab and control buttons are not working the Firefox browser (My browser is up-to-date). The buttons work in IE and Chrome, however, before I realized that, I even switched out my keyboard to a brand new one hoping it would solve the issue.
Thank you--there were a few random extensions I had not added (spyware, maybe?). Once I removed those the issue was fixed!

Kensington mouse scroll will not work in firefox but does in other apps
In all other application my scroll works fine, but in Firefox it will not work. I have tried switching the settings and still got nothing. I also check for driver updates on the mouse driver but they are up to date.
Running XPSP3hello phillbatts, the java plugin and javascript are two very different things: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Javascript_is_not_Java
if websites report that javascript is disabled, try the following: enter '''about:config''' into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named '''javascript.enabled'''. make sure that it is set to '''true''' and else double-click it in order to change its value.
if this doesn't help, please also make sure that you don't have any extensions (like noscript) installed, that might block the execution of javascript or other active content...

Videos won't play in Firefox, but play in other browsers
I'm running Firefox 14 with a default setting to Yahoo. All videos that are connected either through a link or directly connected through youtube will not play. I either get a white screen with nothing displayed or a black screen with an error message that says try again later. It doesn't matter if I connect directly from Firefox or from Yahoo. If I open my AOL browser through Explorer it will play all videos.
You can check for problems caused by a recent Flash 11.3 update and possibly downgrade to Flash 11.2 or 10.3.

Help! HTML Data set not working in IE (but in all other browsers)
Hi there,
I am totally desperate - I built a master/detail region page using a HTML data set.
http://www.atcongress.com/programme/continuousLearningByName.html
It works fine in Firefox/Safari/Chrome/Opera.
Only IE7 and IE8 give me grief - displaying javascript errors; apparrently it is not able to bind the HTML data table to the data set:
The IE Javascript Error Console displays "
'Spry.Data.HTMLDataSet' ist Null oder kein Objekt
This is in German but you'll get the idea I presume?! Translation would be something like
'Spry.Data.HTMLDataSet' is Null or not an object"
Anyway, the source HTML data table uses spry as well. This works fine on all browsers. Maybe because the HTML is on the same page?
http://www.atcongress.com/programme/continuousLearningTable.html
Any ideas? Do you need more info?
Please help - the system needs to go out to test users any day now!
Andreas
This is the entire message from the IE8 javascript error console:
Meldung: 'Spry.Data.HTMLDataSet' ist Null oder kein Objekt Zeile: 30 Zeichen: 1 Code: 0 URI: http://www.atcongress.com/programme/continuousLearningByName.html Meldung: 'Spry.Debug' ist Null oder kein Objekt Zeile: 961 Zeichen: 41 Code: 0 URI: http://www.atcongress.com/_spryAssets/SpryData.js Meldung: 'Spry.Data.initRegionsOnLoad' ist Null oder kein Objekt Zeile: 4855 Zeichen: 65 Code: 0 URI: http://www.atcongress.com/_spryAssets/SpryData.jsMore info on my trial & error process - error still in this case...
I cleaned up the code in both the problematic file and the source file that they validate fine now wit the W3C validator:
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http://www.atcongress.com/programme/continuousLearningBy Name.html&charset=(detect+automatically)&doctype=Inline&ss=1&outline=1&group=0&No200=1&ver bose=1&st=1&user-agent=W3C_Validator/1.1
Data source file:
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.atcongress.com%2Fprogramme%2Fcontinuous LearningTable.html&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&ss=1&outline=1&group= 0&No200=1&verbose=1&st=1&user-agent=W3C_Validator%2F1.1
I'd also like to mention again that the source html file also contains an HTML data set and spry code. No problems there.
In order to make sure that is not a problem of referencing external data I also tried copying and pasting the source data table into the problematic file so that it can be used as a local data source. Still the same.
Apparently the probem is the master/detail region part. The working HTML spry file uses a standard HTML table whereas my problematic one uses a master/detail region

Babylon as a dictionary has a feature to simplify finding of word's meanings. This feature is using of middle mouse button to click on any word and in any application such as internet browsers to find its meanings, but this dosen't work in firefox 3.6. When I press middle mouse button on a word, it dose not select it correctly or may be select another word. Any solution?
I had this problem. I fixed it by right clicking on the website page and found I had inadvertently ticked "block images from this website". Uncheck this and it's fine!

I have intermittent problems with a Web site not loading properly (rather than a gray background with pictures and clickable captions linking to news stories, a page consisting only of text and hyperlinks loads). The page loads normally in Internet Explorer. The problem with Firefox seems to be limited to this one site. I've previously reported it by clicking Help | Report broken Web sites.
