Why can Firefox not show ALT Tex on its web pages

I cannot get Firefox to show ALT Tex when the mouse passes over links ect. I do not have this problem with Internet Explorer. Please help me on this matter, as a web designer I would like this feture to work in Firefox.

ALT text is meant to be displayed when the image isn't displayed. The TITLE tag is for displaying information about the image. You should use both attributes for every image.

  • Why can I not create a PDF from a web page on my Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro on my new Windows 8 computer? It worked fine on my windows XP system?

    Why can I not create a PDF from a web page on my Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro on my new Windows 8 computer? It worked fine on my windows XP system?

    Acrobat 8 is not compatible with Windows 8,  for the simple reason it was
    created much before it and Adobe could not participate the changes to the
    OS that Microsoft implemented many years later on. You need to buy the
    current version for compatibility.

  • Applecare not showing up on Apple's web page

    I enrolled all 3 of my computers in Applecare, however only 2 of the 3 are showing up on Apple's web page. I called and was told that the 1 not showing up was enrolled......just a little concerned.
    Any comments?

    It seems to take a while for the system to update. I had the same problem, but I don't remember how long it took for it to show up. Mine is now in the system, but they have the purchase date wrong. The web page shows 5/12/05 and the purchase was 5/23/05. They do indicate it is an estimated date which is strange. I just noticed my Applecare agreement shows 5/11/05 effective date. I guess I'll call for a correction.

  • Why will firefox not allow me to change the home page

    I am running firefox on vista laptop and since one of the upgrades of firefox I have now a automatic homepage of http://www.searchqu.com/406. I have tried to change it several times to various pages and it does not hold the address, not even a blank one. This happens even if I only close the browser for a split second. Can I please get some advise on this matter.
    Many Thanks
    Simon Donnelly

    Type '''about:config''' in the Location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key. When you see a warning, click '''I'll be careful, I promise!''' button.
    * Preferences that have been modified are shown as '''bold (user set)'''.
    * Preferences can be '''Reset to the default''' or changed via the right-click context menu.
    -> In the '''Filter bar''', type '''searchqu'''
    * This will show all '''searchqu''' related preferences.
    * '''Reset''' all '''searchqu''' related Preferences to their Default values (right-click a preference and click '''Reset''')
    -> Close the '''about:config''' tab and then Restart Firefox.
    Check and tell if its working.

  • Why can't I read the text on some web pages?

    I'm using my laptop with a Vista OS and Firefox. Some of the text that appears on web pages seems to be rendered incorrectly on my screen. I'm hoping someone can tell me how this happens.
    Here is a [http://img840.imageshack.us/img840/151/54855858.jpg screen shot] of what the homepage for Digg.com looks like.

    I have the same problem which is one reason I still use IE8 (which has its own problems). I change my font to be bigger, and I use my toolbar on the side. Firefox apparently doesn't like this and squooshes the page together.
    I could do all sorts of research to figure out what is wrong, reconfigure Firefox, use the fonts it wants, install, zoom, uninstall fonts, and perhaps find apps to change the way it looks. I probably could set up my computer to satisfy the needs of Firefox.
    Nah. I like my computer to work for me! So, I have to go to IE a lot. I use FF for some things. IE for others.
    Good luckl

  • Why would Firefox not show the latest version of a web site?

    At www.brunswickharley.com, Firefox 3.6.3 (on Windows XP SP3) kept showing an obsolete version of the site. IE showed the latest version. I haven't encountered this before. Is it the web site or Firefox?
    I can't review the site's code because I copied the URL of the page I wanted from IE to Firefox, so now Firefox shows the right page.

    I contacted company, Brunswick Harley, and was told that they knew about the problem. Then I contacted the web site developer, who said Brunswick Harley inserted material in the web site that couldn't be viewed in Firefox.
    Both of them said they were working on the problem. Neither said exactly what it was, but it must have been a feature that only IE supports. So I guess Firefox is off the hook.

  • Why is firefox not showing plugin?

    Not working

    HI1980anthony,
    I understand that one of the plugins are not working with Firefox for Android. Unfortunately not all plugins are compatible, however some plugins need Firefox to restart in order to see a change.
    Restart Firefox to see if this is the case.

  • Why does Firefox not show me all pictures on a website

    Make sure that you haven't enabled a High Contrast theme in the Windows/Mac Accessibility settings and that you allow pages to choose their colors in Firefox.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Website_colors_are_wrong

  • Why can I not submit a question to the feedback page? I selected the sad face and entered my details but the submit betton remained greyed out.

    In the previous version of Firefox when I quit I was always asked if I want to save tabs and if I said yes my tabs were saved for next time. The new version works the other way asking if I want to restore y last session, which is fine except: I received an update request from SKYPE while Firefox was closed. There was a link to find out more about the new version which automatically opened Firefox with just one tab; the info on the update. None of my previous tabs were available. Some of them have been open for months and there were at least 10 or 15 open tabs.When I closed Firefox of course Firefox saved the latest tab and asked me if I wanted to restore previous session. Of course I want to restore my previous session but not the single tab with the SKYPE update info. Is there any way to go back to my previous, previous session? I can't even remember what the tabs were, at least not all of them so what is one to do now?

    When an external application opens Firefox with a single tab, don't close Firefox before hitting '''Restore Previous Session''' in the History menu.

  • Why can I not convert items in an existing HTML page to a symbol?

    I have imported a basic HTML page into Edge and want to convert the basic elements into symbols.
    When I try to do this the options in the menu are greyed out.
    Is this not possible or is there a workaround?
    It seems crazy if you can't do this, as a front-end dev I would prefer working with existing pages rather than creating content to add to pages.
    Please advise.

  • Why can we not have subdomains on the new tab page any more?

    With the latest update to the new tab page they removed the ability to go to have subdomains. For example I can't have abc.com/news, abc.com/sports, abc.com/weather or something similar all up there, I can only go to abc.com

    hello pinkycatcher, you can drag any items from your bookmarks or history onto the default new tab page in firefox. this works for any url including subdomains...

    Try the Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there. <br />
    ''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
    * You can open the Firefox 4/5/6/7 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
    If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />

  • Want new tab to open to home page and why does firefox not have a simple check box in the options because I can't keep going through a long procedure each time

    I want new tab to open to home page and why does firefox not have a simple check box in the options because I can't keep going through the long tedious procedure each time I install firefox. It is something that should be in the options tab , and I want to know why it isn't. I am totally frustrated with firefox and getting ready to switch.

    You can use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.
    *https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
    Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
    If you do not keep changes after a restart or otherwise have problems with preferences, see:
