want to disable popup that shows when i pass my pointer over a bookmark telling me what my bookmark is, like i don't know.
the popup tells me the web address in a small box that pops up if i hold the pointer on a bookmark for more than a second or so and also tells me the bookmark. its just telling me what i alredy know, its annoying.

What do you mean that you can't get Firefox out of Safe mode?
Do you get the Safe mode start window or aren't you able to change settings permanently?

You mean like the "Getting Started" tool-tip as shown in the attached screenshot ??

yes like that
That's a Firefox built-in feature.. atleast i don't know if its behavior can be altered..
k, thanks
You can only do that by disabling all tooltips (user interface and on web pages).
You can do that by setting the Boolean pref browser.chrome.toolbar_tips to false on the about:config page.
that did it! thank you cor-el
ok, now why do i get this for only one website? its a .gov site it is a javascript app error message.
[Exception... "An invalid or illegal string was specified" code: "12" nsresult: "0x8053000c (NS_ERROR_DOM_SYNTAX_ERR)" location: "chrome://plugin/content/jquery-1.4.2.min.js Line: 112"]
That error can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
- Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

i got it back, been working on it since my last post. thought firefox was a goner, and i'd have to use IE forever. don't ask how i fixed it cause i don't know. did the complete uninstall/reinstall, still wouldn't work and have fooling w/it till now. even got rid of the javascript error, u were right about that one too, it was a plugin. all is well, thanks again 4 ur help, will sleep much better 2nite.
