My blue vertical navigation bar drops to bottom of the page

I use the latest edition of Firefox together with windows XP. The problem happens when I use Firefox, Google or Chrome to access a web site or email. The page being viewed drops to the end and I cannot use the navigation bar to return to my original place. I have used CCleaner to clear unwanted files. Sometimes this works for a limited period. I would be grateful for any assistance that you may be able to give me. Thanks.

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

Blue and Grey Bar taking up bottom half of page in Firefox?

Hello,
I have a massive blue and grey bar going across the bottom of my screen when I use Firefox resulting in my screen size being half of what it should be. What is this and how can I make it go away? Been using Firefox for years and this is the first time I have ever seen this.
I have restarted my computer as well and same result.
Thanks

Try to start firefox in safe mode and see if the problem's gone, if the screen looks ok in safe mode, the problem is 1 or more add-ons, try to disable them one by one to see which one has caused the problem.
to start firefox in safe mode: goto help menu and click on Restart with Add ons disabled

Some new pages open without a vertical scroll bar...even tho the page is very long.

It only happens with one particular vendors website. They can't explain it. Most of their web pages work fine.
I selected an imbedded link from one page and a new browswer window opens and populates but there is no left margin vertical scroll bar. And there is lots of data below to view. CAnt get there from here.

Can you share the link to the page?
Does it make any difference if you change the zoom level, such as by holding down Ctrl and tapping the + key or the - key a couple of times?
New windows opened by a script can be customized by leaving out some elements. Presumably if they were doing that, they would know. However, just in case, you could prevent sites from removing the scrollbars from popup windows.
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box that appears above the list, type or paste '''window_o''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click the '''dom.disable_window_open_feature.scrollbars''' preference to switch it from false to true.
(The name of this preference is difficult to understand, but it means that Firefox will block the site from turning off scrollbars on a new window if set to true.)

Why the vertical scrollbar bar is automatically scrolled to the bottom pos.

I created a JScrollpane to contain a JTabbedPane. The JTabbedPane has two JPanel and each of them has a number of GUI components such as JCheckbox and JTextField. They have different size because their GUI components are different. The 2nd panel is about twice the size of the first panel.
When the JScrollpane is shown, its vertical scroll bar is automatically scrolled to the bottom position. However, it is the first panel that is initially visible to the user. So, the user will see no GUI components of the first panel because the auto scrolling of the vertical scroll bar.
Can anyone tell me how to disable the auto scrolling?
I just want to let the scrollbar knob stay at the top so that the GUI components of the first panel (the smaller one) can be seen initially!

Works fine for me:
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class TabbedPaneScroll extends JFrame
 private JTabbedPane tabbedPane;
 public TabbedPaneScroll()
 tabbedPane = new JTabbedPane();
 tabbedPane.setPreferredSize( new Dimension(300, 200) );
 getContentPane().add(tabbedPane);
 addNewTab( 10 );
 addNewTab( 5 );
 addNewTab( 20 );
 private void addNewTab(int fields)
 JPanel panel = new JPanel();
 panel.setLayout( new GridLayout(0, 1) );
 for (int i = 0; i < fields; i++)
 panel.add( new JTextField("" + i) );
 JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane( panel );
 tabbedPane.add(scrollPane, "" + fields);
 public static void main(String args[])
 TabbedPaneScroll frame = new TabbedPaneScroll();
 frame.setDefaultCloseOperation( EXIT_ON_CLOSE );
 frame.pack();
 frame.setLocationRelativeTo( null );
 frame.setVisible(true);
}If you need further help then you need to create a [url http://www.physci.org/codes/sscce.jsp]Short, Self Contained, Compilable and Executable, Example Program that demonstrates the incorrect behaviour, because I can't guess exactly what you are doing based on the information provided.
And don't forget to use the [url http://forum.java.sun.com/help.jspa?sec=formatting]Code Formatting Tags so the code retains its original formatting.

Top Navigation Bar drop down menu's do not work

Top Navigation Bar drop down menu's do not work. It is only happening on a couple of my site collections and is affecting on the main page of those collections. There is only one web part on the main page, it is the Picture Library Slideshow web part. When
I remove that web part, the menu's come back and work with no problem. I re-add the web part and the menu's stop working. Not finding any error's in the server logs, there are no visual error's thrown. Any advice on what might be happening? I've checked
the Java update on our computers and it has the latest version. Open to any advice at this point.

Could you please provide a screenshot about the issue, also may detecte the problematic elements by using IE browser developer tool (keyboard F12)?
Please also check if it is related IE compatibility issue.
Thanks

Where is the refresh button and where is the bar at the bottom of the page that gives the loading status of the page? Why did you mess with something that was perfectly fine??

I updated to firefox 4 and it's not as good as the former version. There is no refresh button, and I use that a lot. There is no loading status bar at the bottom of the page and I liked the tabs BELOW the page address.
Why do you keep changing things, just for the H**L of it...

In Firefox 4 by default the Stop, Go and Reload (Refresh) buttons are combined and attached to the right hand edge of the location bar.
When you are typing in the location bar it will show the Go button. When a site is loading it shows the Stop button. At other times it shows the Reload button.
If you want separate buttons, right-click on a toolbar and choose Customize, you can then drag and drop the stop or reload buttons and place them elsewhere. If you place them in the order "Reload-Stop" on the right hand edge of the location bar they will be combined again. For more details on customizing the toolbar see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/How+to+customize+the+toolbar
For details about what happened to the status bar see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/what-happened-status-bar

How can I get the scroll bar to go to the top or bottom of the page with a right click command?

When I right click on the scroll bar nothing happens. I have to spin the mouse wheel repeatedly to get to the top or bottom of the page. I just switched from explorer. I'm used to being able to do this. It's much less time consuming and frustrating. I hope someone can help. Thanks.

You can hold down the Shift key and left-click the scroll bar to go to that position.
If you set the Boolean pref middlemouse.scrollbarPosition to "true" (default on Linux) on the about:config page then you can middle-click the scroll bar to go to that position.

Navigation bar does not appear on published page, Replaced by a "bullet"

Navigation bar does not appear on the published page, but is replaced by a "bullet".
"Include page in Navigation menu" is checked on every page.
Therefore unable to navigate to other pages.
If other pages are moved to the first position, the same thing occurs - ie unable to navigate to any other page.

One frequent reason for that is the fact that not all the files in the Scripts folder for the site are getting uploaded. While viewing the site bring up the Activity Window (Command+Option+A) and see if any of the files are listed as missing. If there are you'll need to upload the Scripts folder to the server.
If you're using iWeb the only option there is to try the File ➙ Publish Entire Site menu option.
Or, you can publish you site to a folder on your hard drive and use a 3rd party FTP client like Cyberduck to upload just the Scripts folder to the server.

My page has moved to the right of the screen so I do not have a full centre page. How do I move the page back to the centre of the screen. There is no bottom scroll bar for me to move the page to the left of the screen. Hope this makes sense

The picture on my screen has moved over to the right hand side and I want it to be in the centre. How do I move it back as I do not have a scroll bar at the bottom of the page to do this and am unable to drag it back. Hope this makes sense!

Its a toolbar thing. I got rid of my Babylon toolbar and it sorted it out!

Is there a way to adjust the Scroll bar? Because when I press the arrows key once it goes straight to the bottom of the page rather than going down gradually.

Before when I pressed the arrow key to navigate up and down the screen it would do it gradually. After I up graded to the current version it now skips down to the very bottom of the page.

My tabs at the bottom of the page plus my desktop have dissappeared

my bottom of the page tabs do not show and my desk top dissappeared

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: Command+Shift+F).
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/how-to-use-full-screen
If you are in full screen mode then hover the mouse to the top of the screen to make the Navigation Toolbar and Tab bar appear. Click the Maximize button (top right corner of the Navigation Toolbar) to leave full screen mode or right-click empty space on a toolbar and choose "Exit Full Screen Mode" or press the F11 key.

Why have Link previews been moved to the bottom of the page? I have a toolbar on my my site and my users cant see it because the link preview is obscuring it...

Well as I can see from other questions asked people are already aware that when you hover over a link the link preview appears at the bottom of the page instead of the status bar.
Other people have said to install https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/status-4-evar/
Well thats fine for me to do that but what about the users who come to my site and cant see my toolbar at the bottom because the link preview (with a long URL) is obscuring it? I cant tell them to go and install an addon, what bright spark thought of this I find it very disrupting.

As far as I know, [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/ the Classic Theme Restorer add-on] is the only way move the Reload button outside the address bar.
# Install [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/ Classic Theme Restorer] and restart Firefox when prompted.
# Open the Add-ons Manager (Ctrl+Shift+A; Mac: Command+Shift+A), then the Extensions category.
# Next to Classic Theme Restorer, click the Options button.
# On the Main tab, make sure "Movable back-forward button" and "Hide urlbars stop & reload buttons" are checked. You might also want to check "Combine stop & reload buttons". Close the options window when done.
# Right-click an empty area of the tab bar and choose Customize.
# Drag the Back/Forward, Stop and Reload buttons onto the navigation toolbar.
# Click the Exit Customize button in the lower right corner when done.
That being said, I should point out that you can reload pages in other ways.
* Right-click any tab and choose Reload.
* Right-click an empty area of the page and choose Reload.
* Press F5.
* Press Ctrl+R (Mac: Command+R).

I start scrolling a little bit and then the page uncontrollable scrolls down to the bottom of the page slowly. During which time firefix is unresponsive.

I will scroll down the page with either the keyboard, mouse or by click on the onscreen scroll bar and it will start uncontrolably scrolling to the bottom of the page. It also crashes a lot.

The page numbering goes with the section which derives from the template you used to create the page.
For example you would have a Preface section with certain +master objects+ that numbers with roman numerals.
Then you would have the body of the book following which restarts the count from 1 and uses Arabic numbers. This again would have its own +master objects+.
You need to insert the page numbers you want in the section's +master objects+ . Do this by going to +Menu > Format > Advanced > Make master objects editable+ .
The +master objects+ are what repeats on each page. What I think you have done is insert the page number only on the page you are looking at, which is why it has only inserted once.
I presume you will be inserting your page numbers in the Header or Footer which you will be able to see if you go to +Menu > View > Show Layout+ .
To control how the pages are numbered and with which number they start go to +Toolbar > Inspector (the blue icon with the i in it) > Layout (2nd tab) > Section+ and set what you want there.

Safari 3 backspace goes back space does to bottom of the page

when im in a text input box such as google search and i say for example make a mistake, but when i hit delete (backspace) to delete the mistake it goes back like when you hit the back button in the browser. can someone please help me fix this. also when i hit the spacebar it sometimes goes to the bottom on the page. I would be very grateful if anyone could help me.
These things only happen on certain pages, right now while im typing this its not happening, but on google, certain forums, it happens

Hi,
When I hit the space bar on any webpage it jumps to the bottom of the page
Just to be clear, are you editing text on a page, or just viewing the page?
If just viewing the page, is it going to the very last page in a multipage site, or down 1 page at a time. One page at a time is expected behaviour. Most browsers do this.
If you are editing text, check that you don't have some incompatible Safari helper applications installed. Go to these 2 locations and move anything present in them onto your Desktop to deactivate them:
/Users/YourUsername/Library/Input Managers/
/Library/Input Managers/
Restart Safari to pick up the change. If it works now, you can try moving the items back one by one until you find the culprit.

Automaticly showing the name of the report on bottom of the page

I have so many reports that have been created in CR. I print all my CR reports through Planit so I don't accesses them through CR while printing. To figure which report is being used I need to look in Plant then go to MS Access which has the list where Plant ties in the name from CR.
Anyway...
I just want to have the file name printed on the bottom of the page, I hope there is a variable already setup in CR.. I didn't see one. If not I will manually type in all the names..
Thanks.....

Hi,
   If you want to print the path along with the file name then drag and drop the special field "File path and Name" into the page footer.
If you want to pint only the file name then
   Goto > File > Summary Info.> Title . Enter the report file name.
   Now drag teh special field Report title onto your report in teh report footer or page footer where you wanted to display.
Hope this helps!
Regards,
Vinay
