The "a name" html tag does not work in Firefox.

The tag works in all versions of Internet Explorer, but does not work in Firefox versions 3, 4, 5, 10, 11, 12.

I haven't noticed any problems on most pages, but I have read about a problem where a script changes the length of the page content after loading (e.g., by collapsing content under headings, done on some FAQ or glossary pages).
For example, this should position the browser at the Reset Printer section:
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Problems_printing_web_pages#Reset_printer
A standard diagnostic step is to try Firefox's Safe Mode to see whether an odd behavior is caused by a custom setting or add-on.
First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [[Backing up your information]]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
Next, restart Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] using
Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
In the Safe Mode dialog, do not check any boxes, just click "Continue in Safe Mode."
If links work correctly in Safe Mode, that usually points to an add-on or custom setting as the problem.
Let us know whether that makes any difference.

  • I have a website that I am building. Transferring word docs to the site by copy/paste does not work with firefox.Why?

    I am trying to complete my website data entry with fire fox since the security of internet explorer is questionable. I am having no success in transferring written or graphic documents from Fire Fox to my website.

    I assume this is a sitebuilder tool. Could you mention which sitebuilder it is?
    Is the problem that a paste button provided by the sitebuilder does nothing when you click it? This could be related to a Firefox security feature that bars sites from reading your Windows clipboard. Or it could just be broken. If it's a sitebuilder button, I could look into past threads for possible solutions/workarounds.
    For pasting text, instead of using a button provided by the sitebuilder, can you use one of the Windows shortcuts?
    * Ctrl+v
    * right-click > Paste
    * Edit menu > Paste ''(if you use the classic menu bar)''
    That might not work with images...
    Finally, I will say that Internet Explorer 11 is a pretty solid product. If you need to use it for your website builder tool because it only works well in IE, I don't think you are taking a lot of security risk there. Just don't stray over to random sites you don't trust.

  • 1-click weather extension does not work in Firefox 4...

    The 1-Click Weather extension does not work in Firefox 4. It comes up with a bunch of Javascript errors.

    You'll need a little bit of tweaking on this add-on. Please read this link. It might take a little bit of work, but it does worth it as 1-Click Weather is a far better add-on than any others of the same category:

  • I tried to rename a file, it gave me an error message (can't remember the number - 43??) and then the file disappeared from the original folder. When I do a search, the file comes up under the new name, but it does not show a path, and even though preview

    I tried to rename a file, it gave me an error message (can't remember the number - 43??) and then the file disappeared from the original folder. When I do a search, the file comes up under the new name, but it does not show a path, and even though preview shows the contents, I can't open the document (Powerpoint) and I can't move the document. I tried "Copy" and paste but it doesn't work. I tried "Share" with Airdrop and iChat, but the file is inaccessible. When i try to rename the file, it says the filename is too long.
    When I try to open it, it says the alias is not good, and asks if I want to fix the alias. I'm afraid to do that and lose all access to this document.
    Right now, it feels like a ghost document - it is on the computer intact, but it is in an undisclosed location and inaccessible.
    Please help!!

    I was able to resolve this by repairing permissions, even though no permissions error was listed specifically for that file.
    I could also have recovered it through Time Machine, but I'm interested in knowing how not to have this happen again!
    I was afraid of rebooting and possibly losing track even of the ghost.
    I did not try EasyFind - I'll keep that in mind next time.
    Thanks for all the comments.

  • My iPod touch needs to be restored. however, all of my movies/apps/songs/photos are not backed up on my computer because the shop on my computer does not work. can i still get the memory on my iPod touch 32gb back?

    my iPod touch needs to be restored. however, all of my movies/apps/songs/photos are not backed up on my computer because the shop on my computer does not work. can i still get the memory on my iPod touch 32gb back?

    If you weren't able to sync the purchases to a computer previously and now your iPod needs to be restored so you can't sync it now, then you may be out of luck and will need to purchase your content again. Officially Apple does not allow redownloads of purchased items other than iPhone/iPod touch applications and iBooks. The official statement of their policy can be found here, among other places.
    You can try contacting iTunes Store Customer Service (select the "Music Purchases" or "Video Purchases" category, as appropriate, then "Lost or Missing Items". You'll find either an "Express Lane" button - just follow the instructions to get to the contact form - or an "Email Us" button) ") and explaining what happened. Reportedly in some cases Apple has allowed redownloading on a one-time basis. But don't count on it. 
    Good luck.

  • I have a MacBook, made in 2010. I can't get the eject function to work. I have a DVD in now and want to eject it and put another one in. Command-E, dragging it to the trash or Find-Eject does not work. Ideas?

    Hi there. Hear are some other options . Hold down for click on the track pad while restarting and keep it down all the way thru boot. Or use right click on a mouse. If it's stuck, sometimes sticking a business card in top edge of slot while trying the eject option can work.

  • Crystal Report for VS2010 - The Go To Page function does not work

    When running a report into Crystal(VS2010), the Go To Page function does not work.  Typing in a page number and pressing Enter does not take you to that page.  The report remains on the current page. I'm not sure if there is suppose to be a button like the one in Crystal 8.5(VS2008).

    As long as you are using the CR assemblies for VS .NET, the viewer (Win) should look like this:
    Remember, the ActiveX viewer based on the Report Designer Component (RDC, referencing craxdrt.dll) is not supported in VS 2010.

  • I need help with a PDF file that is an image, the "Read Out Loud' option does not work, please help!

    I need help with a PDF file that is an image, the "Read Out Loud' option does not work, please help!

    You mean an image such as a scanned document?
    If that is the case, the file doesn't contain any text for Reader Out Loud to read. In order to fix that, you would need an application such as Adobe Acrobat that does Optical Character Recognition to convert the images to actual text.
    You can also try to export the file as a Word document or something else using ExportPDF which I believe offers OCR and is cheaper than Acrobat.

  • Silverlight plug-in does not works in FireFox 4 - beta 7 ( Mac OS 10.6.6 ) !!!! What is the problem ? I don't have any installed add-on !!!

    Hi every one
    Silverlight plug-in does not works in FireFox 4 - beta 7 ( Mac OS 10.6.6 ) !!!!
    I don't have any installed Extensions except "Better GReader" and "Video Helper" !!!
    I have problem with Seesmic.com and installing applications that required Silverlight !
    I installed latest version of Silverlight many times.
    Please help me.
    (I don't have any problem with Safari or other Web Browser.)
    Thank You all.

    Silverlight only supports non-64 bit versions of Firefox on OSX (and from Firefox 4 onwards we're shipping 64-bit Firefox to 64-bit OSX users) and unlike with other plugins, we can't just start a 32-bit process to run it because of issues with the silverlight plugin architecture. We're working with the Silverlight team at Microsoft to get those fixed but it's essentially waiting on them.
    (Or you could try to pressure them into releasing a 64-bit Silverlight for Macs.)
