Firefox will not open new window for websites that require it
I am running Firefox 3.6.16 on Windows XP.
For some time now, certain websites will just not work - for instance, when I use Mapquest, it used to open the new window when I clicked on "print" - that no longer happens.
Today, I was trying to use the eScrip online mall, and when I clicked on the store name, it did not open a new window - this was working fine back in December when I was doing my online shopping.
My suspicion is the new version has some kind of problem. does anyone have a solution for this?
Thanks!

Maybe Firefox has blocked the pop-ups windows? Try to disable it and then try the websites again, to see if that helps. Don't forget to turn it back on after the trial.
Hi! I so wish it were that simple. I have Mapquest on the list of exception, but just to be sure, I tried turning off the popups block, and it still does not work. 8-(
Thanks though!
I use MapQuest a lot but haven't used the PRINT option for a while. I just tried it and you are right, the PRINT does not open any window or even work. But if you change it to the NEW MapQuest, the PRINT function will work. I guess MapQuest has disabled the PRINT option in their CLASSIC version. Maybe they are trying to encourage users to use their NEW version instead.
If you still want to use the CLASSIC version, you can always copy the map and paste it onto a Image Editor program and print from there.
Hi! Ok, I think I am using the new version. I see no switch to set classic or new, but it used to show me all the things I see it talking about in the help section - it just stopped working a few months ago. I think I will try contacting Mapquest and seeing what they have to say.
Thanks!
