This problem just started two days ago. In addition, I cannot click on "Settings"............For all these problems listed, all I get is "Loading" at the top of the gmail page.

In firefox in the url bar, type in about:config click to confirm that you'll "be careful." In the bar that says "filter" type dom and press enter. Look for dom.storage and it probably says false. Right click and click "toggle" to change it to true. This should fix the problem.

Thank you so much; "pstuart". That absolutely solved the problem. I really appreciate it.

Thanks again.

I have the same problem after updating. The dom.storage trick did not cure it.

This fix didn't work for me...:o( If I can't use firefox to get my email I might as well go back to IE... Ugh!!
