I have a problem with not being able to navigate or have the "buttons" of options on the website respond when they are clicked on. The website seems to load perfectly with no error messages at all.....it is just an inert picture, if you will. I have used this website many many times in the past with no issues. I have not made any changes on my Firefox settings prior to this problem.... I even went so far as to download Edge/Bing to see if it may be a problem with the website itself. I must report that with Bing, there was no problem whatsoever navigating with all responses the afflicted website. The website in question is Germanna Community College. Any ideas or solutions?

I have tried your suggestion to no avail. I did discover that the problem is a "bug" in the latest update for Firefox ...version 91.0.1 I discovered this because I have 3 computers, all set up with the Firefox browser. Well, 2 of the computers had the problem we're discussing, while the third one worked just fine on the mentioned website. I went into the Firefox settings for this computer and found that there was a Firefox update available. This computer had been set for a manual upload for updates and had not installed the latest version of Firefox, whereas the other two had been set for automatic install of updates and were running the latest updated version. As you can guess, I did a manual update on this one to see if that could be the answer. Bingo! After the update was installed, I immediately logged onto the "troubled" website and had the very same issue............the website would load OK, but there was no response to clicking on any of the features or navigation on the site. I can see the full website clearly, but can not operate on it at all. So, I have deducted that there is indeed a flaw or a "bug" in the latest version of Firefox. I have no idea how to report it to those who work on the browser to make it better, but I wanted to share the answer to my problem, since you took the time to try and help me. Thank you!

Can you post a link to a publicly accessible page (i.e. no authentication or signing on required)?

You can check the Web Console (Tools -> Web Developer) for messages about blocked content and about the presence of mixed or unsafe content.

You can check the Network Monitor to see if content is blocked or otherwise fails to load.

If necessary use "Ctrl+F5" or "Ctrl+Shift+R" (Mac: Command+Shift+R) to reload the page and bypass the cache to generate a fresh log.
