Code appears in Explorer but does not exist in Firefox

I am trying to update an older html website by adding a link in the sidebar to Twitter and Facebook. It appears fine in Explorer, but the code simply does not exist in Firefox. It simply is not there. What would cause Firefox to strip out (?) two chiclets with a simple link?

Thank you, everyone. You are not going to believe this, but after lighting my hair on fire and trying everything I could think of, magically, when I went to the site today to try again. THERE THEY ARE.

You must be magic, because nothing I did worked!!

Thank you

Hi SJackson, Thank you for posting your question in order to get a better idea of what may be causing this, there are some pretty cool Web Developer Tools built with firefox. However Firebug is also a pretty cool add on to diagnose errors on the page. (It looks like you already have it- awesome!)

Ok so troubleshooting webpages where elements do not show up, try Dom inspector, are there any errors on loading objects? https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/d.../Introduction_to_DOM_Inspector

Can you also provide an example html page or snippit where this happens?

Any chance Adblock Plus is involved? You might test the page in Firefox's Safe Mode. That's a standard diagnostic tool to bypass interference by extensions (and some custom settings). More info: Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode.

You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using

Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled

In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode" (not Reset)

Any difference?

Did you reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files?

  • Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
  • Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
  • Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)

I have to admit it was Ad Blocker <embarrassed>

Good to know, since other users may be using the same add-on. Perhaps you can code them in a different way that isn't blocked?
