Why doesn't my form submit on Firefox 4?

I have not seen any answers or any replies to my question, so I will ask it again, but holding my breathe for a reply is a different story.
I have a form which works perfectly on any version of Firefox prior to version 4 and on any other browser including IE9.
I have attempted to rebuild the form to make it strictly HTML 5 compliant and removed all required fields. None of the fields are required by the db which receives the form's data.
Other forms on the website work fine.
So why does this form not work?

Try posting at the Web Development / Standards Evangelism forum at MozillaZine. The helpers over there are more knowledgeable about web page development issues with Firefox. <br />

Why doesn't Facebook fully load in Firefox 28.0 & yet in IE it will?

Why doesn't Facebook fully load in Firefox 28.0? In Internet Explorer it will.

Are you missing images and does Facebook look like a plain website with no CSS stylings?

>I do apologise if i seem slow, i am still very new to dreamweaver
Just to be clear, this is not an issue with learning dreamweaver. This is just a lack of understanding of HTML and PHP. You need to learn those first before trying to learn DW.
You have a form field named 'donorName' but are checking for a field named 'name'.
$name = $_POST['name'];
<input name="donerName" type="text"
You need to rename one or the other.

Why doesn't the newest edition of Firefox allow my Norton Identity Safe program to work in conjunction with it

Hello
I have been prompted to upgrade Firefox several times now and I actually did once but ended up performing an uninstall after finding out it doesn't work with my very expensive Norton Identity Safe/ Virus Software. Is there any way to remedy this issue as I won't abandon the software I have already purchased and would really like to continue using Firefox (definitely fewer issues than the internet browser that came pre-downloaded on my new laptop).
Thank you for your time
Ash

I have heard that Norton released an update patch for Firefox 5.0 on Tuesday 06-21 when Firefox 5.0 was released. ''(versus taking their normal six to eight weeks)'' Some Norton users have reported that the toolbar may not work if the Norton patch was installed before Firefox 5.0, instead if after Firefox 5.0 was already installed.

Why doesn't ANYTHING appear in the firefox window when i open it?

Firefox opens up EMPTY. Black screen. Minimize/Expand/Close buttons still there. Nothing else. Clicking in the upper portion reveals that the buttons still EXIST but if i say, found "options" and clicked it, i get a new and utterly useless popup window. (all black, again, just mini/close option)
Fix this? Otherwise urging my client to permanently switch to chrome (and billing anyway! woohoo!)
Thanks

hello mattinitus, other users with this problem all had an embedded intel hd3000 graphics card with an old driver present. in case this also applies to you, here would be a link to update the driver, which in turn should also address the black firefox problem: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?DwnldID=23764 (for win7 64 bit)
in case this doesn't solve the issue or does not apply to the system, start firefox into safemode '''by pressing the shift key while the application is launching''' & disable hardware acceleration in the firefox ''menu ≡ > options > advanced > general'' (that setting will take a restart of the browser to take effect).

Why doesn't the downloads window in firefox 3.6.25 display all downloads?

whenever i download a web page or attachment, the downloads window in firefox 3.6.25 remains blank.
the tools' options are set to "show the downloads window when downloading a file." the only other option checked is "save files to" but the browse button doesn't display the downloads window. i've created a downloads folder on my desktop, but i would prefer having the downloads window display all downloads automatically. please advise. thanks.

Do you have "Remember download history" checked in ''Firefox button > Options > Options'' (OR ''Tools > Options'') ''> Privacy'' ?
*Click this link --> https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Options%20window%20-%20Privacy%20panel
Also, do not clear download history when using Clear Recent History or when automatically clearing history when closing Firefox.
*Click this link --> https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Clear%20Recent%20History
If using third-party applications, like CCleaner, be sure that your Firefox options are set to not clear Firefox download history.

Why will my web form submit but my fillable form not submit with the same data in both?

i have developed a form in formscentral. When I trest it as a web form, it submits all the data to my attached fromscentral response form. I copy and paste the same data into tjhe fillable pdf form I generate from the distribute forms option with a submit buttion, and the form will not submit. It gives an "unable to connect to server" error.
When I try an empty form. it will submit. When I delete data from text fields. I will eventually reach a pint where the form will submit.
Is there a file size limit on the fillable pdf for submission to the formscentral response form?

Hi Mark,
Sorry for not being clear.
There is a system limit of 10000 characters in a multiline text field. Say you designed a form where a multiline text field has a limit of 20 characters. The following text will submit without error in the HTML form but will fail in the PDF form:
1234567890
123456789
In the HTML form there is a total of 20 characters in the field value, 19 digits and a linefeed character representing the newline. In the PDF form there is a total of 21 characters in the field value, 19 digits, a carriage return, and a linefeed.
Regards,
Brian

Why doesn't Quicktime Pro work in Firefox 4.x?

I recently upgraded from Firefox 3.7 to 4.0.1 and have discovered that although the Quicktime plug-in works (meaning I can use Firefox to play Quicktime movies embedded in a web page), Quicktime "Pro" functionality is not working (meaning I can no longer save the movie to disc when I click on menu tab on the bottom right-hand corner of the movie, next to the control slider). This worked fine in Firefox 3.7. Does anyone know what the problem is? I'm using a Macbook Pro i5 running OS 10.6.4 with Quicktime 7.6.6. Thanks!

Finally figured it out the solution! (This only applies to Mac users.)
Firefox 3.x ran in 32-bit mode and Quicktime 7.x runs in 32-bit mode, so the two programs worked just fine together. The new Firefox 4.x, however, runs in 64-bit mode, so the 32-bt Quicktime 7.x plug-in no longer works correctly.
Luckily the fix is simple: just switch Firefox 4.x from 64-bit mode down to 32-bit mode. Here's how:
[] Close Firefox 4.0
[] Highlight the Firefox icon in the Applications folder
[] Click COMMAND-i to open the Get Info window
[] Click on the box marked: OPEN IN 32-BIT MODE and close the window
[] Launch Firefox
You can now save Quicktime files as before, assuming you have Quicktime Pro.
[] After closing Firefox, you can un-check the OPEN IN 32-BIT MODE box so Firefox will once again run in 64-bit mode.

Why doesn't my new install of Firefox 4.0 have the "Firefox button" which is prominently advertised on the site as a huge advantage?

I installed 4.0 the other day, and the very first change advertised in the features video is a "Firefox button" (it's orange) that supposedly has all my menus within it. I still have all my menus and no Firefox Button.

The Firefox button isn't shown by default for Windows XP. If you want to use it, go to the View menu, down to toolbars and uncheck Menu Bar.

Why doesn't even freshly & cleanly installed Firefox allow MS Silverlight to run, while other browsers will?

I've tried uninstalling, including all personal information, etc., then reinstalling without any importing of external data-- in other words, a very fresh and clean installation. Still, I can't get Silverlight to run at the Fidelity site. Internet Explorer and Chrome work just fine. What's going on here?

Thanks for the suggestions. Unfortunately, none of them solved the problem. The problem persists. Silverlight acts like it wants to start. In fact, it seems like it is just starting when it always shuts done and presents a blank screen. Still don't get it. Anybody have any other ideas?
Cheers!

Spry Validation on submit in Firefox doesn't work

Hello,
I have some forms that use spry validation, everything works
great and as expected in IE, but in Firefox the validation fails to
work on submit of the form, but does work onblur of the text box's?
so it partially works just not on form submit. So if someone came
and just clicked the submit button the form wouldn't validate, but
if someone did what they are suppose to and fill in name, email...
the validation works as you tab to the next form element.
I don't have the website online, to show... any idea's, why
this may happen only in firefox?
Thanks,

Hi cchauvin08,
If you can't post your page on the web for others to see,
then perhaps you can paste the relevant markup/code. For example,
what type of inputs are you using? You said "text box" do you mean
a TextArea or a TextField? What does the widget constructor for
that particular validation field look like? What does the markup
look like, including the markup for the <form> tag?
We're going to need more info due to the fact that some of
these validation widgets have multiple configurations (types of
validation).
