Lost JavaScript in Firefox 3.617

After installing Firefox 4 and finding no support for Norton Identity Protection, I uninstalled 4 and reinstalled 3.617. Then iGoogle came up with a blank page (later blank page included statement that JavaScript is required). Other Google pages are similarly affected. JavaScript is enabled and I reset Firefox in the Norton firewall. JavaScript works in IE. Uninstalled and reinstalled 3.617.

I assume you do not use NoScript, which allows you to manage JavaScript permissions on a site-by-site basis. (If you do, check whether you have blocked Google.)
Could you try Firefox's Safe Mode, a diagnostic feature for identifying setting and add-on problems?
I recommend first backing up your profile folder, which contains your bookmarks and other settings. See the section of this article on backing up your entire profile: [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information].
Next, try starting Firefox in Firefox
[http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode Safe Mode]. Be careful not to "reset" anything permanently if you didn't back up.
Does JavaScript work correctly in Safe Mode? If so, you might disable all non-essential add-ons and re-enable them as needed. If not, hmmm, what could it be?

Despite my Javascript for Firefox 23 being "enabled" ( I checked re the "about:config" steps), some websites are still asking me to enable my Javascript.

Despite my Javascript for Firefox 23 being "enabled" ( I checked re the "about:config" steps), some websites are still asking me to enable my Javascript to view content. Safari works without any problem. OS/X 10.8.4

These files are hidden to me because my OS/X is 10.8.4 and I cannot make them appear. This is way, way more trouble than it's worth. Thanks for your help. Firefox has lost me.

I've lost the orange firefox tab with the arrow, that was in the top left corner: how do I get it back?

In current Firefox releases (29 and later), that have have the Australis user interface, the orange Firefox menu button has been replaced by the three-bar Firefox Menu button at the far right end of the Navigation Toolbar and this button is always visible, whether you have the menu bar visible or hidden<br>A consequence of this location is that you no longer can hide the Navigation Toolbar
*There is a star like button to the right end of the search bar on the Navigation Toolbar to bookmark the current web page and a "Show your bookmarks" button next to it to open the Bookmarks in a drop down menu.<br>You can find "Show All Bookmarks" to open the Bookmarks Manager (Library) at the bottom of this drop-down list
*It is still possible to have the menu bar visible via the right-click context menu on the toolbars to have menus like the Bookmarks menu
*<br>*If you bookmark a page then "Bookmark This Page" in the Bookmarks menu changes to "Edit This Bookmark"

Upgraded to firefox 3.6.6 lost my mozilla firefox toolbar. how do I get it back

Lost my mozilla firefox toolbar, after upgrading to firefox 3.6.6. How do I get it back. Can I restore to previous version, so I can have toolbar back.
== This happened ==
Just once or twice
== upgraded to firefox 3.6.6

Can't see the Menu Bar (File, Edit, View, History...Help)? Hold down the key ( key in OSX) and press the following letters in this exact order: V T M
The Menu Bar should now be displayed permanently, unless you turn it off again (View > Toolbars). Turning the Menu Bar on and off is a new feature in version 3.6.
See other bars under View > Toolbars. Click on one of them will place a check mark (display) or remove the check mark (not displayed).
To display the Status Bar, View, then click Status bar to place a check mark (display) or remove the check mark (not displayed).
* If items are missing then see if you can find them in the View > Toolbars > Customize window.
* If you see the item in the Customize window then drag it back from the Customize window to the Navigation toolbar.
* If you do not see that item then click the Restore Default Set button in the View > Toolbars > Customize window

Windows 7 "Restore to an earlier time" lost all my Firefox bookmarks and favicons.

I have Windows 7 and Firefox 18.0.1 -- I did a Windows "Restore your computer to an earlier time", which I have done before with no trouble. This time, however, though I kept all my desktop shortcuts and IE toolbar icons, I lost ALL my Firefox toolbar icons and everything in my bookmark dropdown menu. Is it possible to restore them, and if so, how? I've looked through the Firefox support section, but don't know which (if any) of the solutions would apply to my situation. Thanks.

hello, try if you can [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Undo-System-Restore undo the system restore] & make a [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles|backup of the firefox profile folder]] before you attempt it again...

I clicked on the firefox update & lost my old firefox page with my aol start & quick pick tool bar & this "new" page takes up more space so when I click on a different subject, I have LESS space to view it. . Why, WHY must you people always mess with things that were just fine. . I cannot eeven restore my computer to an earlier time, NOPE, won't do it. . So now what do I do ? ? Pete . . . God Bless . . . . I WANT MY PREVIOUS SETTINGS BACK ! ! ! ! !

The problem is with the page that opens at startup?
What does the new page look like? Can you paste the address into a reply?
Or if it doesn't have an address, maybe it's a page created by an add-on. Can you see any indication of the source of the page? Perhaps you could post a screen shot of what it looks like. This article has tips on that (make sure to delete to cover anything confidential): [[How do I create a screenshot of my problem?]]
To reduce content size, try the zoom feature: hold down the Ctrl key and tap the - key once or twice. If you want to reset the page to the standard size, you can hold down Ctrl and tap the 0 key once (zero).
But really we should get you back to the page you prefer, and hopefully with the additional details I requested we will be able to figure out what needs to get changed so you can do that.

Some cookie settings lost each time Firefox closes

Hi there,
Some of my Cookie settings are lost each time Firefox restarts. These specifically relate to web addresses I have entered as Exceptions to the Cookie settings in the Privacy settings tab. I will find that they have been deleted and will have to re-enter them each time. This is annoying if you want to use certain websites that require third-party cookies but you also want to maintain a high privacy level. For example, when using Feedly. Additionally, sometimes my Persona is disabled when Firefox is restarted and I have to re-enable it manually. This problem is sporadic.
I have a number of add-ons installed but this problem is very recent and these add-ons have not proved a problem before. Anyone else with the same problem? Is it a bug or a setting I can fix? Please help.
Thanks!

Do not use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the "Cookies" and the "Site Preferences"
Clearing "Site Preferences" clears all exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, software installation, and passwords.

Javascript on Firefox 18

Over the last couple of weeks I have been getting asked to update to Fx 18.0.1 as I am currently using Fx17.0.1. I was going to do it but then something I read on another forum stopped me.
A poster on this forum I am a member of said that Firefox has disabled Javascript on his computer and that he can no longer watch videos and read most websites.
Now is that true that there is no more Javascript on Firefox?
If it is true then I am sticking with Fx17 for as long as I can as I need Javascript as I watch videos and need certain webpages to function right.
So what is the Javascript situation with Fx18?

What cor-el was trying to say is that no, the version of Java you have is out of date. You should uninstall it (and any other versions on your computer) and install the latest, Java 7 update 11.
However, with that in mind, please note that Java is not at all related to Javascript (there is an unfortunate naming coincidence here but they aren't at all related, this is why alot of people get confused about Java blocks). If you don't use Java it is best to leave it disabled as it is a horrible vector for viruses and attacks.
So, to sum it up, update to Java 7 update 11. Then install Firefox 18.0.1. This will ensure you are on the most secure and stable version of Java and Firefox.

Problem with javascript in Firefox

Hi,
In my JSP I call a Javascript function when a radio button is selected and it works fine if I use IE, When I use firefox I get the following error
Error: document[getNetuiTagName(formId)] has no properties
Source File: http://gio5wl06.mt.att.com:11100/frSvc/frAtmSvc/gotosalesOrder.do
Line: 193
This is my javascript function
function showLayer(formId, tagId) {
//alert("showLayer");
//alert("formId " + formId);
//alert("tagId " + tagId);
if (tagId == "abnDataId") {
//alert("In abnDataId");
document[getNetuiTagName(formId)][getNetuiTagName("cwmProcessId")].disabled = false;
if (tagId == "corrId") {
document[getNetuiTagName(formId)][getNetuiTagName("corrTypeId")].style.visibility="visible";
document.getElementById("corrTypeLablId").style.visibility="visible";
I have no idea what the problem is?
Dhruba

Hello!
first of all i don't speek english so i just try to write well but i don't guarantee about the results...
Now, the problem is that you use the 2 dimension array in the code
document[getNetuiTagName(formId)][getNetuiTagName("cwmProcessId")].disabled = false;
If you use this alternative code:
var inst = document.getElementById(getNetuiTagName("cwmProcessId");
inst.disabled = false;
or
var inst = document.getElementById(getNetuiTagName("cwmProcessId",this);
inst.disabled = false;
you can see that your code work well either in firefox than in explorer!
Try and enjoy!
Bye!

I've just followed the onscreen prompts to download Firefox 4 & it's not supported by my version of OSX, so now I've lost my old Firefox 3.6 & can't figure out how to get it back! Help!!!!

I'm using a MacBook, with Mac OS x version 10.4.11
All I did was open Firefox, & it prompted me to download Firefox 4.
So I followed the directions & now Firefox won't run with this version of OSX & I have no Firefox! I want to cry! All my Bookmarks.............Help please! Have I lost everything?? Is there a way to get my old Firefox back?

You can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
When you install Firefox 3.6 it will use your existing bookmarks and other user data.
Mozilla are working to prevent Mac users with non-compatible systems from getting the notification about Firefox 4, and also not displaying the "Download Firefox 4" button on http://www.mozilla.com

How can I disable javascript in Firefox 30 for all users on my Solaris 10 x86 box?

I have a Solaris 10 box in a secure environment (no Internet) with Firefox 30 installed. I need to lock javascript in a disabled state for all users. I realize each individual user can toggle javascript with about:config, but that is only a per/user activity. I want to set the value of javascript.enabled to false for all users. Additionally, no user should be able to modify this setting.
Is there a location with a config or prefs file that will affect all users?

How can I get the selected action of content type by javascript from Firefox Options Applications?

I works on my website, and it have to check the PDF file will be opened in which plugins
So we have to implement some javascript to check the selected action of Content Type from Tool>Options>Application
Do we have any javascript code to check this

You can't check this with code that runs on the server or via JavaScript in the web page.
Note that current Firefox version do not expose the built-in PDF Reader via the navigator.plugin array, so if you can't detect a plugin than maybe assume that the built-in PDF reader is used with Firefox version 19 and later.
*Bug 840439 - Expose PDF.JS as a plugin navigator.plugins when enabled

Javascript causes Firefox to not respond for a few minutes.

I have a website form with a large amount of dynamically generated javascript that uses jQuery to handle events. When clicking on radio buttons in the form Firefox 26 will get part way through then stop responding for around two minutes while showing (Not Responding) in the title. If I go into about:config and disable javascript.options.baselinejit.content the form works fine, if I enable that option FireFox becomes unresponsive part way through the form. This started recently but I don't know exactly which version is started on, Firefox 26 definitely has the issue for me. All extensions and plugins have been disabled and "Use hardware acceleration when available" is not selected. Also the form works correctly in Chrome 31, Internet Explorer 7, 8, 9, and 10.

Hi keviga, would you be inclined to file a new bug for this? You can reference the Baseline JavaScript compiler as the problem. I guess the tricky part is figuring out what is going on in your scripts that is triggering the issue.
You can submit bugs here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/

I lost all my Firefox Sync data on my computer, but still have it on my phone. Is there any way to get my sync key off of my phone?

My Android phone has Firefox installed, and is connected to Sync. Somehow, I lost all of my Firefox data (I think I know how this happened, and I'm going to address that problem with my computer next). Is there any way to pull the sync key off of my phone, since in a house-keeping frenzy I apparently deleted the sync key from my computer?

No, there is not.
Sorry.
