The memo field in forms won't display text?

I am using Firefox 33.1.1 on a WindowsXP Pro system and have been using FireFox for quite some time . . .
Recently, I must have done something, I just don't know, but I can't seem to remedy the problem.
I create and use a lot of forms. Standard <form></form> HTML forms.
Whenever I pull up a form, I can no longer see any text as I type into the MEMO field. I also don't see any contents of the MEMO field when I recall a record fromn the database within the form.
This is happening ONLY with the MEMO field.
This very message I had to type in notepad and copy and paste it into this bug report form.( OMG - when I pasted this text into this form, I can see the text!! But still not in other forms)
YET, the text is indeed in the form. This text will display when recalling a record to the webpage and displaying the memo field contents on the page.(Not in form)
I have done all I can according to FireFox problem resolution suggestions including uninstalling and reinstalling a fresh pristeen copy of Firefox to a diff location on HD.
I do NOT have this problem when I go into Windows IE. I know there is no problem with the form itself or database contents. This happens on ANY memo field at ANY website, not just mine.
I cannot say if this began after an FF update or not. I feel it may be a simple fix. I may have hit a key or combination of keys that changed a setting causing this, but I dont know where.
Any clues would be helpful.
thanks

Try to disable OMTC and leave hardware acceleration in Firefox enabled.
*<b>about:config</b> page: layers.offmainthreadcomposition.enabled = false
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:config
You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
*Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
You need to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.

This can be a problem with the font that is used to display the text.
You can do a font test to see if you can identify corrupted font(s).

You can try different default fonts and temporarily disable website fonts to test the selected default font.

In list view: Why don't searches include results from the Collections field? Why won't the Collections column sort properly?

I create a new index on column2, (INDEX_N3)
and change SQL to
select 1 from table T1 where
T1.COLUMN_002 = '848K 36892'
This time INDEX_N3 will be used.
but change SQL to
select 1 from table T1 where
T1.COLUMN_002 = '848K 36892'
and T1.COLUMN_004 = '1000'
The explain plan will show full scan.
Why？
Thanks.

E72 does not sync all of the memo field in an outl...

I was called at a customer last week to solve a Nokia e72 problem: when syncing with outlook, only part of the memo content of the outlook contact fields was synced.There was also no way telling which part would be synced: could be some piece from right in the middle.Can anybody tell me if there are limits to the memo field in the contacts on an E72, so that it prevents total syncing?

Well, I guess I have to download some other software to make my apple product work. Really great stuff you guys sell. I will never buy another apple product. My Iphone, Ipod and Itunes are junk

Uprgrad to ios7 calender won't display text entered. the appointment entered is there becauwse it alerts me to appointments entered

Calender won't display text entered for appointments.
The appointments are there as the phone alerts me as requested. Also the appointments are synced with icloud and Outlook on my computer.
Any appointments entered in computer do not show on phone but are there.

I've managed to fix this!
In case it's helpful to anyone encountering this problem, here's what I did.
I went into the preferences (through the Calendar app, not the System Preferences - didn't want to remove the entire account info, in case I encountered problems getting my email to link again), clicked on the Account tab and removed the Exchange account (by clicking the "-" (minus) sign below the listing of accounts). I then added an account (clicking the "+" sign) and re-entered the information. When asked if I wanted to add these settings for Mail and Contacts, I unclicked those options (bc they're already installed and work fine). Once I completed the information, I closed the settings window, and hit ⌘+R to refresh and all the Exchange appointments appeared.

How many characters are allowed in the memo field?

how many characters are allowed in the memo field? In iTunes in the get info section to add data to this field.

It is 255, as are most text fields. Use the lyrics field if you want to record a large amount of information.

I can not use the tab key to move to the next field or use the shift and tab to move to the prior field in forms.

After updating to 7.0.1 I can not always use the tab key to move to the next field or use the shift and tab to move to the prior field in forms. This always worked in previous versions and it's much needed for my type of work. Does anyone know of a setting to activate this? If not can the Firefox developers work on this issue (please). I love Firefox but desperately need this feature to work correctly. Thanks!

I tried in safe mode and the tab key worked just fine. I'm not sure about all web forms I've only recently updated to 7.0. The wen form I was using was for appraisal purposes and it has multiple data fields to fill in and also drop down menus to select from. Might I always have to use Firefox in safe mode to be able to utilize the tab between field feature? Thanks for your help!

Contact Form won't display input text

Hi,
I'm trying to create a flash contact form that sends the
user's message on enter key. Therefore I need you to help me do
this and also help me understand why my form isn't displaying right
when I have a mask for it.
To get a better picture of the problem
here you can
see how the form should look like and
here you can
see the same form, but with the mask

I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "embed the fonts
in each of the text fields"
Please have a look at the .fla file:
http://www.claudiudesign.org/test/sterg.fla
(this fla has the mask; if you remove it you will be able to
see the working contact form)
It won't take you more than 1 min to understand what's up
with it if your good at this.
Thing is I'm behind the schedule with this and I have to
solve the problem as soon as possible.
Thank You

Who Updated the Memo field

I am trying to determine if it is possible to find out who updated a column field like the function ColumnHistory() shows the history. I would like to see which user made the changes in the ColumnHistory(). Is it possible to do this?

Routines to log changes to data tend to make use of the AfterUpdate event. However, this does not in itself mean that any change has been made to the values of the data. You'll find an example of one which does so, however, as ChangedRecord.zip
in my public databases folder at:
https://onedrive.live.com/?cid=44CC60D7FEA42912&id=44CC60D7FEA42912!169
If you have difficulty opening the link copy its text (NB, not the link location) and paste it into your browser's address bar.
This little demo file calls the Windows API GetUserName function to return the current user's Windows login-in name, and includes code in two modules which determines (a) if data in a record has actually changed rather than simply been updated and (b) if data
will change, in order to get user confirmation to save a record. The former would apply in your case.
In my demo it is the whole record which is examined for changes, not just a particular field, so some small modification of the code would be required to limit it to one field. I can confirm that it does work with a memo field per se, though whether this
will be true in the case of fields containing very large amounts of text I can't honestly say without testing it. You can easily do so by adding a memo field to the Contact table in my demo, and including a control bound to this in the form. Then
paste in a very large block of text into one record via the form. If it successfully detects the insertion as a change, then make a small amendment to the text and see if it detects that. I see no reason why it shouldn't, but without empirical
evidence I wouldn't bet the farm on it.

How to specify the servlet in the ACTION field in FORM in jsp, html pages?

I have problem when I return back to the page prova3.html from the servlet because in the address bar it give me this path:

IRS forms won't display on screen; this just started.

Recently, IRS forms will not display on my screen. I have a Mac and it used to display these forms on the screen. Could the problem be caused by a recent version of Firefox Mozilla.
== URL of affected sites ==
http://

Check to see if your Adobe Acrobat & Reader Plug-in is current; IRS forms use Adobe Reader/Acrobat for their forms. Also see if your Java and Shockwave Flash (aka Adobe Flash) are current.
Check your plugins here: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/

DW CS4 Links to MSSQL Database, sees fields/data but won't display on webpage

I'm trying to get a Dynamic Data Table to show in my webpage but I can't. (Using ASP JavaScript)
I'm using DW CS4 (10.0 build 4117) and connecting to an MSSQL database on a Windows platform server hosted by Verio.
I can successfully link to the database, I can see my data correctly when I bind the record set and do a "Test SQL Statement" , see images below:
My Design View of the page with the table shows the correct fields and looks like:
Everything should look when I switch to Live View or view the page on a browser, right?? Well instead I get this:
If the pic is unclear it says:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'
[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified
/Test2009/Untitled-1.asp, line 5
Line 5 of course refers to the ActiveConnection command which uses the INCLUDE file for the connection string.
The Line 5 is
Recordset1_cmd.ActiveConnection = MM_PMCDonSQL_STRING;
And the INCLUDE reverenced is:
var MM_PMCDonSQL_STRING = "dsn=PMCSQL1;uid=pmcapp0010sql;pwd=FloraVista49;"
These are parameters for logging into the MSSQL database (This is just a test database so showing password doesn't matter)":
Server By Name: SQLExpress4.mql14000.MSSQLServers.com,1433\SQLExpress4
Server By IP: 128.121.85.21,1433\SQLExpress4
Database Name: pmcapp0010
Login ID: pmcapp0010sql
Password: FloraVista49
WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?

No one wanted to help me but I figured out that I was not referencing the DSN on the test server, only the local DSN.
The information to connect to the MSSQL database given by my hosting company was not correct for Dreameweaver (or MS Access) either.

9i Form won't display

Hi,
I have a simple form that I created in the 9i developer suite. After I start OC4J, I click on the runform button in forms developer to run the form, all I get in the end is a blank screen with an "applet started" message in the console of the browser. I have an old 6i form that runs just fine but can't seem to find the problem with the new 9i form. Anyone have any ideas on where to start looking for the source of this problem?
Thanks in advance.
Jeff

Boris,
Thanks for your response. Unfortunatly, that is not the problem as there are no spaces in the form's name. I will clarify that the blank screen I am getting is really a dark blank screen within the browser, with the approximate dimensions of and positioned where my form ought to be. In other words-- I get a big dark grey square in the middle of my browser when I run the form. Also, I'm not getting any error messages which is making this difficult to diagnose.

PDF forms have problems displaying text and only appears when the field is selected

Hello,
I created some pdf forms to distribute to the company clients. But we are having some people complaining about the text visibility. When they have work in team, the pdf that they receive from a third person often appears unfill or without text, the text is only visible when the field is selected. I need to find a solution for this because our company products are base on this forms.
If there is any addition information that I should add to understand what is happening and how to fix it, I'll be happy to write it.
In the company, we all have mac and the forms where created innitially in Adobe acrobat 9 pro, but we have now Adobe acropabt XI pro.
The users have both Mac and Windows systems.
Thank you,

This is usually caused by the form being filled-in and saved by a Mac user who is using the Preview application to view the PDF. More information is here: http://kb2.adobe.com/community/publishing/885/cpsid_88564.html
It is a good idea to inform your users that Adobe Reader (or Acrobat) should be used to work with the forms.

Can you change the box field in form central?

I am creating a new form but do not want the boxes around the field? I just want a line, is that possible? If so, how do I change that?

You can change the font via Settings > Notes, and you can change font size for Notes, Mail, and Contacts (but not just Notes) via Settings > General > Accessibility > Large Text
