TOC does not function in FireFox 3

I am running the WebHelp on RoboHelp 7 (XP Blue skin). The
TOC is not appearing on FireFox 3. RoboHelp 7 WebHelp templates do
not support FF 3? (Looks fine on FF 2.0 and IE.)
[Edit: I did find someone else on here with a similar
issue...
WebHelp
Navigation Pane Killed by FireFox 3
For me,
Firefox 3 + Win XP = Broken
Firefox 3.0.1 + Vista = Works
Firefox 3 + Mac = Don't care, cuz we don't support :) If
someone wants to post their findings, please feel free.
I'm not running any custom scripts, so it can't be that. I
will post more as I learn more.]

Hello Peter,
Do you mean this thread by "brainskillet"?
Link
to Brainskillet's Thread
If so, yeah I read that one. Found out that this appears to
be an issue with "firebug" in FF3 (just like sah033 mentioned in
brainskillet's post thread). Turning firebug off fixes the issue on
XP apparently. However, "firebug" is not something that our
customers should be turning off.
I'm patched up with the 2 patches that you mention in
brainskillet's post thread I think. I can't find any other patches
to which brainskillet is referring to. Do you have a link?
(Edit: Fixed link)

The Windows 7 pop up screen at the bottom toolbar does not function with Firefox 4. Instead there are now tabs on top. The Windows 7 feature was handy because one could easily see which pages you're working on. How can I fix this?

One of the Windows 7 features is the pop up box icon at the bottom toolbar which displays which pages are open when scrolling over it. After installing Firefox 4 this function does not work anymore, instead it was replaced by Firefox tabs above.

I believe you are talking about taskbar previews. To enable them you need to change a hidden preference.
# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
# Locate the preference '''browser.taskbar.previews.enable''' and double-click on it to change its value to '''true'''

GavelSnipe does not function on Firefox, but it does on I.E.8 (which I am now having to use) - why

Can get GavelSnipe onto/into Firefox and have it bookmarked. When you cut and paste an Ebay item number into GavelS and enter your max bid and ask it to be sniped, GavelS reverts you back to the sign in page and when I return to the input screen the details I last entered have not been recorded. Just loaded the same screens in IE8 and its carried out the functions perfectly

Hello Welshwoody,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

My menu bar often does not function in Firefox

I have Firefox 3.6.16. Since installing it, my menu bar often is
not operational....So even though I click on the Tools or View
category, no options box shows up.
A few days ago I could not get my Yahoo! icons up nor Yahoo's
Search box--at least that's working now;
but the menu bar is behaving strangely.
Does anyone know why this is happening?
Thank you for your consideration.

Dear cor-el,
Thank you for your suggestion; I really should have mentioned that
I already had used safe-mode before and also disabled and re-enabled
the extensions (all of them) plus even uninstalled and re-installed the
extensions.
The problem has remained.
However, I have not yet switched to the Default theme as you advised.
So I shall do that.
Thank you so much for your suggestion; I should have mentioned that I
had already tried many other remedies.

Restart does not functioning, always "Firefox is already running....." I am so tired of this

For the possible causes of this error and solutions see [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]].

Middle mouse button does not function for Firefox Tab browsing when cetain programs are running.

My Microsoft Comfort Mouse 3000 middle button is set in Firefox to open and close tabs. (In Control Panel, Mouse, Firefox is the only program exception and the Wheel button is set to middle-click instead of the default Instant Viewer).
When vlc media player (http://www.videolan.org/vlc/) is running and at some point viewed in full screen, the middle mouse button reverts in Firefox to the default Instant Viewer. When vlc is closed, tab operation once again works.
The same thing happens if MWSnap screen capture (http://www.mirekw.com/winfreeware/mwsnap.html) is running.

Very glad to see I am not alone. Alas....that answer did nothing on my system. I also am very very frustrated that, all of a sudden, my middle mouse button brings up a weird four pointed arrow! (see pic) I NEED it to open links in tabs for researching!!
I turned off auto scrolling in the advanced settings. Restarted FF even...and nada.
I have disabled every single add on I had (only like 6 of them)...and nothing.
This happened all the sudden...I dont even know of an update. FF v3.6.10

Windows XP magnifier, which I - as a blinkd person - depend on for all of my computer work, does not function in Firefox 5 like it does in my other applications, making work extremely tedious.

My Windows XP machine is set up following the accessibility options in Windows accessories...expanded text...large cursor and the High Contrast theme...with green text...black background...large icons and scrollbars. I use Windows Magnifier at the top of the screen to enlarge what is showing in an application window. Magnifier works well in MS Office, Paint Shop, Notetab, Outlook Express, IE, and Firefox 3.x. Since updating Firefox, first to 4 and now to 5, Magnifier cannot follow my cursor in forms that are contained in web sites. I must write my text or code in a text editor (I use Notetab) and then paste it into forms. I write and post web content for a local pro-life group, and the inability to depend on Magnifier to show me what I am typing into a text area or text box, means I must spend extra time moving back and forth between applications. Set up a Windows XP machine as I have done, and you will see what I mean. Firefox must be set to match the Windows accessibility settings. I do use IE when I absolutely have to, but Firefox is so much more secure.

Java script does not function in firefox. I have it eabled in Tools/Options/Content. It will work in IE8 - after a hassle. Can you help me?

I tried to print a map from Google Maps. The status bar said
Javascript void(0). Nothing happened when I clicked print.

Phillipp,
I tried it again using "save link as", and this time it actually worked! I just now downloaded several more using the "save link as" option, and it works perfectly. Thanks. Problem solved.

Hotmail, only in Firefox, does not function, chrome, yes, IE, yes, but not firefox--WHY?

I have uninstalled all versions of Firefox, no matter-Hotmail loads, but when trying to open any email or part of hotmail, does not function. I have now added Chrome and IE and they have no probs with Hotmail!
So, WTF?????

It has been suggested that the Foxit Reader plug-in can cause problems with Hotmail. Try disabling it, reloading the page and see if it helps.

Status bar missing in Firefox 6.0, also Real player does not function with updated version, had to switch back to 3.6

I've installed Firefox 6.0 about 3 times and each time I noticed that the status bar at the bottom of the page was missing. I relied upon the Norton Security "lock icon" which in version 3.6 would appear in the lower right hand corner of the status bar before signing in to websites or making transactions and found it very helpful. It was present in version 3.6 but not in 6.0. When I went back to 3.6 I suddenly had problems with the page freezing up so returned to 6.0 which corrected the problem but was not comfortable without the icon. I contacted Norton and via remote access the tech determined that the problem exists with Firefox's 6.0 version so he reinstalled 3.6 for me. Also I have a paid subscription to Real player Plus and it does not function with 6.0. I'm concerned because it seems you will soon phase out 3.6 and I will be without these functions which are important to me.

I have a solution! Follow this link and download the older version. When I installed it, everything came back as it was before! Yay! Good luck to you all. And bad move, Mozilla, in not making it clearer what the system requirements were for the update!!!!

I am an ordinary user and use FireFox on a Windows XP pro sp2 OS.
I can open and run FireFox by a variety of methods, and do not need to have any firefox: folders, files, or shortcuts on my Desktop unless I so wish.
I suspect you have a rather none standard installation. The quickest solution may well be to uninstall FireFox ( which you have presumably not been able to use anyway) and reinstall it. I would suggest; at least initially; you just use the standard default installation you are offered.
You will probably find this page of use, the [http://www.mozilla-europe.org/en/firefox/3.6.13/releasenotes/ Release Notes], it includes links for downloading FireFox, and has advice and information about installing and downloading.
I am sure you will have further questions when you try to install but click on the blue link above and look at that page and then post back again and I am sure someone will try to help you.
I am assuming that you are already on the Internet with a browser such as Internet Explorer, and a broadband connection, or are you trying to install from a CD or something that has a FireFox install file on it. (if so what are you using, and what is the version of firefox)

Firefox 5 updated - now it does not function - just a blank window. Pull down menus appear but do not function. Am I missing an obvious point to allow this browser to function?

I do not understand how to correct this malfunction.
Operating on MacBook Pro using Mac OSX 10.6.8. Firefox 5 updated - now it does not function - just a blank window. Pull down menus appear but do not function. Am I missing an obvious point to allow this browser to function?

I suspect it has something to do with the java but not sure
Just so you'll know, there is no Java on that page. There is, however JavaScript. You should know that those two things are different as night and day.
To fix your problem, change this -
function MM_swapImgRestore() { //v3.0
var i,x,a=document.MM_sr; for(i=0;a&&i<a.length&&(x=a[i])&&x.oSrc;i++) x.src=x.oSrc;
</script>
</head>
to this -
function MM_swapImgRestore() { //v3.0
var i,x,a=document.MM_sr; for(i=0;a&&i<a.length&&(x=a[i])&&x.oSrc;i++) x.src=x.oSrc;
-->
</script>

Firefox 4 does not function with Robo Form. This is a must program for me. Do I need to go back to using IE?

I downloaded and installed Firefox 4. While many new features are excellent, Firefox no longer recognizes or accepts Robo Form Software. This is a must program for me.

The roboform-firefox-3-4-frozen.xpi adaptor does not work for firefox 4.0 final release if you have roboform 6.x.
To continuate to use roboform 6.x you will have to downgrade firefox to version 3.6.
To use firefox 4.0 you need roboform 7.x.
Roboform promissed "for life" upgrades, but they failed. Now they want you buying the upgrade to version 7.
