Tooltips Not Appearing in Firefox

I searched for answer to this problem, which I thought must be common, but didn't find anything.
I added a tooltip using Dreamweaver CS4 insert Spry tooltip option. The tooltip appears with Internet Explorer 8, but not Firefox 3.5.7. The tooltip isn't blank, there's no sign of it. I tried it on two different systems running Windows 7. I have another web page with Spry tabs that works just fine.
Thanks for any help,
Curt Rowe
P.S. Here's the code
<head>
<script src="../SpryAssets/SpryTooltip.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<link href="../SpryAssets/SpryTooltip.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
</head>
<body>
<span id="sprytrigger1"><img ...></span>
<div class="tooltipContent" id="sprytooltip1">The signature is from a marriage affadavit in the Cuyahoga County Marriage Book.</div>
<script type="text/javascript">

</script>

I tried adding the title and it works fine. It's also a lot less overhead on page loads. It even looks better than the default tooltip. Does the title appear if the image display is turned off? If so I wouldn't need it and the alt description.
I'd still like to solve the problem in case I need to use it again. I moved the image up and it works. Totally strange. I tried movng the image down a few lines at a time. The tooltip appears to stay in the same place on the page. When the image is at it's original location, I think the tooltip is displaying so far up the page that it's not visible. I tried adding a vertical off set to bring it down, but it has no effect.
I also noticed that the tooltip works in Dreamweaver Live View without moving it.
I am not sure about the title appears if the image is turned off; but for XHTML compliancy the alt attribute is required.
If you want to know more on the title attribute have a look here and you will notice that this attribute is a very much overlooked one.This attribute because it can be used on most (X)HTML tags, makes the normal use of Spry tooltips redundant.
As far as finding a solution for the FF/Spry Tooltip problem, I think the style rules need to be tweeked. At the moment they are geared towards IE, leaving the likes of FF in the lurch.
Whatever, I do not need Spry tooltips.

The site icon does not appear in Firefox

I am developing a site (http://www.londonglamourphotoshoot.co.uk/index.html) but the site icon (the little icon that appears next to the site title in the tab label) does not appear in Firefox. It appears in Internet Explorer and Chrome, but for some reason, Firefox ignores it while it shows the icons of other sites perfectly.
If I show the source code of the page and then click in the hiperlink of the icon, then the icon loads as an image, so it is the correct link (and as I said, IE and Chrome display it)
Here is the line Muse generates:
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="images/favicon.ico?4188924898"/>
(I don't know the reason of the question mark and the number after the icon URL, but this is as Muse writes it)
I load the icon in the properties window of the master page only so it is inherited by all other pages of the site.

I doubt it. The filename of the original file is just favicon.png and it was loaded in the generic site properties (not in a master page or in the individual pages). The question mark and number are part of the code generation process by Muse. What's more, Windows would not allow me to name a file with a question mark, it is a forbidden character, but in an URL it means additional arguments or something like that if I'm not mistaken. .

The Full Screen icon does not appear in Firefox 16.0.2 on Mac OS 10.6.8, and command+shift+F does not close the full screen view.

I accidentally entered full screen view and was unable to exit. The Firefox Help article at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-make-firefox-and-websites-go-full-screen?esab=a&s=full+screen+mac&r=0&as=s says I should see a Full Screen View icon in the upper right-hand corner of the Firefox window. That icon not there. I cannot find it. It does not appear in either the full screen or non-full screen views.
Further, the Help article's advice to exit full screen view by using the keyboard sequence command+shift+F does not work. I had to unplug my iMac and reboot. Firefox then opened in non-full screen view.
Ideally, hitting the Escape key would cause Firefox to exit full screen view.

I forgot one detail. This happened while I was having trouble seeing the mouse cursor (I use Apple's Magic Mouse). It had disappeared briefly. I had to drag the cursor out of the Firefox Window for it to reappear. I accidentally entered full screen view while the cursor was not visible.

Tooltips not appearing in HTML5 panel

Hi,
When I open the extension I working on in Chrome, tooltips appear when I move the curser around. When the extension is loaded in Photoshop / InDesign they do not appear. I'm setting the information as the "title" of an element. Is this not supported or am I doing something wrong ?

The verification boxes to prove I'm human do not appear in Firefox. How can this be fixed?

When registering at different website a verification box that should appear with the squiggly letters that you type in to prove you are a human do not appear on my screen. I had to register for a site in Google Chrome because Firefox hid the verification box. How can I fix this?

See:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Images_or_animations_do_not_load
If images are missing then check that you aren't blocking images from some domains.
*Check the permissions for the domain in the current tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
*Check that images are enabled: Tools > Options > Content: [X] Load images automatically
*Check the exceptions in "Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions"
*Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images with the cursor Down key).
If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
Make sure that you do not block third-party images permissions.default.images
There are also extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images.

If I exit from Firefox "Save Tabs" did not appear.WindosXP.Firefox 3.5.7

For better using I uninstall Firefox 3.5 and install Firefox 4.0.1. It often crush and I uninstall Firefox 4.0.1 and install Firefox 3.5.7. Now when I exit from Firefox, window "Save Tabs" do not appear. It is unpleasant for me.
Thank you.

Just for clarification, the about:config browser.showQuitWarning true no longer brings up a dialog ever, which it used to do in closing an individual window, as well as closing the Firefox Application.

Roboform toolbar is not appearing in Firefox 12

I just installed FireFox 12 and my roboform is not appearing in the toolbar.
''moderator locked this thread - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Forum+and+chat+rules+and+guidelines - see Siber Systems for help with their product''

Please make sure you are using the latest version of RoboForm from the Web site. Also, please note that FireFox automatically disables toolbars now and you must go to the FireFox dropdown menu and click on Add-Ons. Make sure the RF extension is enabled.

Website not appearing on Firefox for Mac?

My company has just launched our new website www.robotandspark.com - which loads correctly the first time you view it, but if you close the window, open a new one and type the URL, the page appears blank (white). Is this a Firefox or a website issue? Thanks

If the problem only with MAC then try in safemode
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
[[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.

Mapquest sign in box does not appear in Firefox but does in Internet Explorer. Why? Have disabled add ons but no luck.

The sign in box does not show up on Mapquest when I use Firefox. If I use Internet Explorer, the sign in box appears. I disabled the Firefox add-ons thinking there might be a conflict but no luck. Mapquest support is at a dead end, too, especially with it working in IE but not in Firefox. Suggestions?

Can you post a link to that login page or is this a pop-up window?

Why are certain Gmail messages and conversations not appearing in Firefox 4 (I get the left sidebar, top bar, but message fails to appear), but functions fine in all other browsers?

Certain messages in Gmail are not displaying properly (http://img607.imageshack.us/i/screenshot20110228at101.png/). These messages appear properly in all other browsers (including previous versions of Firefox), and also appear when I disable all labs. Disabling Right Side Chat labs appears to enable display of the message, but destroys all formatting (page stretches to the right beyond viewable resolutions, line breaks disappear), and so on.

Thank you for your prompt email.
I have thoroughly checked and double-checked all the factors below.
On two different computers. Unfortunately, nothing has helped yet.
I can assure you that each item listed below has been checked several times during all my searching today and ALSO again right now.
There are no problems with Plugins, Themes or Extensions found. No permissions blocked, No media blocked images, No third-party permissions blocked. No images blocked from any domains. And images are 'Enabled'. There are no exceptions in place to the loading images. No exclusions in my security software settings.
AND I have checked all of this on a second computer that is also having this same problem. That person is using a different security software than I am but they are having the same problem with images in only their Gmail account also - but NOT when using IE9. Only when signing in through Firefox. And we both think it started yesterday or this morning.
That pc is still on Firefox version 12.0. I updated earlier today to version 13.0 but the problem is still ongoing for both of us.
Any further help will be greatly appreciated.
I have to get something accomplished. WAY behind now.
Thank you,
ElaineB.

Adobe Create pdf icon does not appear in Firefox 36.0.1

I am using Windows 10 TP and have used Adobe Acrobat XI with Firefox for months now and have been able to click on the Adobe Icon on the FIrefox toolbar to convert web pages into an Acrobat file. In the last couple of weeks this icon has disappered but the following items still exist:-
1. Under Options/Applications Portable Document Format (PDF) is still set to Use Adobe Acrobat (default)
2. In the list of Add-ons I still have an entry Adobe Acrobat 11.0.10.32. This is the Adobe PDF Plug-in for Firefoc and Netscape.
3. I have uninstalled ALL add-ons ansd re-installed but that does not resolve the problem
4. I have uninstalled Firefox and re-installed it again but that does not resolve the problem
Can you please offer any suggestions to resolve this problem?

I forgot one detail. This happened while I was having trouble seeing the mouse cursor (I use Apple's Magic Mouse). It had disappeared briefly. I had to drag the cursor out of the Firefox Window for it to reappear. I accidentally entered full screen view while the cursor was not visible.

File attachment in yahoo mail does not appeare in Firefox 4, but IE & other web browsers show correctly.

Before I install Firefox 4, I have been use Firefox 3.6 and when I was checking my yahoo mail, there was not any problem to view or download file attachment.
After installing Firefox 4, when I receive a new mail with file attachment, like as video, or document, I can not see the attachment to download it. but with other web browsers like IE, I can see the attachment of the email.

Hi!
People using a Trend Micro virus scanner should disable some webmail function. You can find the solution [http://en.kioskea.net/forum/affich-33677-can-t-download-attachments-on-my-yahoo-email here]
I do not use Trend Micro, but have the same issues. I just found my "AdBlock Plus" add-on was stopping the attachment download. What you should do to see if this is your problem too: disable AdBlock Plus, restart firefox and see if your problem is solved. Now enable AdBlock Plus again and restart Firefox.
To fix this problem: In Firefox, click on Add-ons, go to AdBlock Plus, go to Options, click on Filters--> reset statistics. Go to your attachment, click on the attachment (it will fail to download of course). Go back to AdBlock Plus and sort the statistics for "Hits". Now you can see which filter is blocking your attachment download. Disable this filter and you problem is solved!
Regards!

File dialog (Save, Open, Export, etc.) does not appear in Firefox

Hello,
I am having a very similar problem to the one described in this link ...
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/990487?esab=a&as=aaq
... and I can provide some additional information.
In my case, the issue is not isolated to saving a file (although, that is where I first noticed it). It is definitely an issue with trying to display the common File dialog - be it for saving a file from a link, or File -> Save Page As, or File -> Open File, or Bookmarks -> Show All Bookmarks -> Import and Backup (to/from HTML), etc., etc.
Here are the things I have already tried (not necessarily in this order):
Uninstall/Reinstall
Safe Mode
New Profile
Disabled Anti-Virus/Firewall
Reset Firefox
I also tried regressing to v27.0.1, and still saw the same (mis)behaviour. I am totally perplexed.
Any help/insight you can provide will be greatly appreciated! :-)

Yes. Sorry, I should have mentioned that there have been several reboots involved during the troubleshooting.
I am running Firefox in an admin level account in this case - so, there shouldn't be any permission issues there.
I have tried shutting down both the desktop firewall software, and the anti-virus, and the problem still persists exactly as described. (Obviously, I disconnected the system when I did that [smile].)
All other software on the system that I have tried, interacts with the file dialog just fine ... so, I don't think it is anything central like some corruption associated with the file dialog itself.
As I said, it is most perplexing.
