Major issues using some sites
Hi there, Can anyone help me please. Ive been using Firefox forever and yesterday I signed into a Gmail account to send an email to someone, I typed in who it was to, then subject and then when I went to type into the body of text, the keyboard wont work.
I thought there was an issue with the keyboard but I then I tried to type in issues on firfox and loads of text is missing, I basically cant use firefox at the moment as Im only viewing half the info.
Ive been sent a credit not from someone and this is what its viewing like.
I didnt change anything that Im aware of
Thanks and fingers crossed in anticipation. Andrea

In your screenshot, the boxes indicate that Firefox was not able to load the font for that text. This can occur if web fonts are blocked (either by an internal setting or by an add-on that blocks remote fonts). Are you seeing this on other sites or in other messages?
It's also possible that Firefox is having a problem with a built-in font on your system. As a Windows person, I'm going to let a Mac user suggest how to check on that.
Hi yes, Its happening randomly, but also where text should be its not even there, the firefox home page is just a few icons and no text, if I type in firefox search bar, the words dont show at all as I type them and then this appears.
I actually typed "issues with firefox"
No idea, its a shame as I like using firefox, dont like safari and having to use google at moment :(
Ive sorted it! It was simply the font Arial MT light, I'd opened it in my fontbook last week about half an hour before the problem started, Ive deleted it and the problem has disapreared!! woop woop that was 6hrs of my life wasted trying to sort it.
Thank you for reporting back. I don't know why any site would use Arial MT Light instead of regular Arial, so that wouldn't have occurred to me.
