While on Instructables.com, when there are additional images on a topic, normally clicking on them will enlarge them. Now, with Firefox version 10.0.1, these images don't do anything. AT ALL. I know they're supposed to, because there are often informational comments embedded in the images. I need to know how to fix this. Otherwise, I need to know how to go back to a previous version of Firefox.

Ok it appears that (for me at least) this problem is caused by the AdBlock Plus add-on. If I disable AdBlock Plus or just disable it for instructables.com, the images work correctly.

Do disable AdBlock Plus just on instructables.com:

  1. Right-click on an empty section of the tab strip and check "Add-on Bar"
  2. The Add-on Bar will show up at the bottom of the Firefox window.
  3. Click on the AdBlock icon and choose "disable on instructables.com
  4. Then reload the page.

To disable AdBlock Plus completely, see Disable or remove Add-ons

This looks like a bug in Firefox. I filed this https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=727871

You can downgrade to Firefox 9.0.1 here - https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/9.0.1/win32/en-US/ but that isn't recommended. Firefox 10 includes important security updates that are not in Firefox 9.0.1. It might be better to use another browser that is fully up to date until this is resolved.

I'll wait it out, since I'm not about to go back to IE (no matter what they do with it!) and I don't like Chrome as much as I like Firefox. Thank you for helping. At least I know it's not something I did wrong!

Yes, that worked. I hope they're going to fix the Adblock Plus! Or add that issue to the definitions.
