Firefox Support Forum

When I am opening up sites like REI.com and mountainhardwear.com the web page defaults to the bottom of the page. It only happens on certain websites. I can open gmail, hotmail, amazon - and it stays at the top of the page.

For some reason Java stopped working when I turned on my computer this morning.

I've tried reinstalling Java, and Firefox, but nothing seems to work.

The java website isn't detecting my Java plugin on Firefox. IE works fine with java though.

When I enter the name of a website in my FireFox browser, it links me to a completely different website... On other occasions it even presents me with (I guess) randomized error messages...

Firefox freezes up whether I've one tab open or five open. I've got plenty of RAM on this laptop, that's not the problem. Firefox worked perfectly until a month or so ago and I didn't do anything different then.

I set custom colors in Windows because of vision problems (can't take bright white backgrounds, so I use a 20% gray), and have Firefox set to "Use System Colors." Now, after going to Firefox 5, when I print anything, my system background prints (even though I have NOT checked "Print background" in Page Setup. This did NOT happen when I was using Firefox 3 or earlier versions.

How do I turn this off? Do I have to try to return to Firefox 3 (is that even possible?)? Unless there's a practical fix to this, I'll have to abandon Firefox entirely.

I can't help but wonder why Mozilla went from a very reliable, logical update structure, which was more concerned with getting things to work RIGHT than to just change things merely for the sake of changing them.

This year, we had a very GOOD 3.x FireFox. I loved them and happy installed their updates. Maybe there were small problems but they were always fixed.

And then came 4. Then 5. Then 6. And now 7 is being beta tested -

ALL IN THE SAME YEAR!

And each of these releases has introduced new bugs faster than they have fixed the old.

But enough of my rant about the updates. Right now, in this question, I'm wondering WHY.

Why the radical change in direction from Mozilla? Did they get a new CEO? Did they hire a new marketing team who overrode the development team?

I can't believe competition alone caused this radical paradigm shift in the company. It's as though entirely different mindsets are now in charge.

Anyone have any news about the company which might explain this?

Query:

Good afternoon, I have windows 7 and I´m using Internet Explorer but when I get into hotmail, using firefox (latest version 5) or chrome, this program tells me that the certificate has expired and not how to fix this.

The system date is correct and there is no virus in the pc because I had examinated with my antivirus ESET NOD32 4.0.474.0.

The message is: secure.shared.live.com443 uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate expired on 07/07/2011 21:00.

This problem it´s just about Hotmail, what solution you can offer?

Thank you for your attention.

I select View --> Page Source and no window appears. Under the Window menu, the item Source: . . . shows but no window. If I close the main window then the item is ticked but still no actual window. I have disable all extensions and plugins, safe mode, revert all preferences. the same happens with Show all Bookmarks. This is why I posted this under bookmarks problems originally - see below. I now find the same happens to downloads and Error console windows. No problems in Safari or MS Word (usually the worst performer)

Bookmarks are all present, but show all bookmarks produces no window, even though the window menu shows an item and I can select it. Mac OS 10.6.8 FF 5.01 Show all bookmarks shows no window, even if I close the main window. Under window menu the 'Library' item is ticked but still nothing. I have restarted, and renamed places database. recently installed some of these addons

I keep finding words on web pages (including my own) written in green and doubly underlined (described as 'Text enhance') that provide a hyperlink to "Groupon". Why does this happen and how can I stop it?

How am I supposed to exit Firefox when there is no "x" at the top. I seem to have lost everything at the top. I downloaded the new Firefox and have had nothing but problems since. Right now my problem is that I hit "full page" and didn't know I would lose my exit "x" at the top. Now I can't find ANYWHERE to restore the old one.

this is the complete message "You are using an incompatible web browser. Sorry, we're not able to support your browser. Please use one of the following browsers:

   Mozilla Firefox
   Safari
   Microsoft Internet Explorer"

I have the same problem with all browsers. maybe i have problem in my pc, i don't know please help me . thank you

Title says it all. I just upgraded to Mac OS X Lion, and can no longer use a finger swipe, whether one or 2 fingered, to move backwards an forwards between pages. I can still do so in Safari, but not in Firefox 5.01, my preferred browser, any longer. Doesn't matter if I try using one, two or more fingers

Is there a fix for this? Thank you.

Why only for me my webpage is little bit broken not showing correctly? With other browsers is OK, but then i using Firefox 4+ version it's little bit broken, my friends using same browser like me, but for they website looking good. Please help me, because i don't like use old firefox versions :/ You can see how for me it look's: http://img818.imageshack.us/img818/8585/unledal.jpg At normally the text from panel's should little bit exposed from panel.

For example try http://joliclic.free.fr/html/object-t.../object-audio.html. mp3 does not work. wav works first time then not again. on second try ask you to go to Quicktime to load plugin! On third time nothing
