Buttons on other websites are missing, how to fix in version 32.0.3?
The navigation buttons on websites are missing. In IE they appear. How do I fix this? I have Windows 8 on my laptop.

Missing icons are usually supplied by a font that is downloaded from the server (@font-face) as you can probably see by little boxes that show the hex code of the characters.
Make sure that you allow pages to choose their own fonts.
- Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced: [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
You can check the gfx.downloadable_fonts.enabled pref on the about:config page and make sure that it is set to true (if necessary double-click the line to toggle its value).

No it did not. Most websites are fine, but there a few like the login for my online college, the Outlook Web App (my college email) and Verizon website. Where the icon buttons or pictures are supposed to be there are square boxes. I prefer FF over IE but when school starts and if this doesn't get fixed I'll have to switch. I don't like having two browsers on my system. Any other suggestions?

THAT DID IT! Thanks Cor-el!!
Up until about 3 versions ago if the missing button issue was not a problem if you "unselected the allow other pages to choose their own fonts" box. Ever since then the boxes and icons are not displaying oin FF. Please fix this.
It is possible that at that time the website wasn't using an icon font to display those icons, but was still using images and have changed to an icon font recently. In case a downloadable font is used to display icons then you always need to enable "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above".
