I'm trying to access a banking site to login to my online account. I get a pop-up window that says I must have javascript enabled. I check my Firefox preferences and javascript is already enabled. I was not having this problem with the Firefox release before Firefox 8.0. I think the problem may be in release 8.0.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

I disabled all add-ons and went to the default theme for 8.0. This did not solve the problem. When accessing the online banking site it still gives me the pop-up "javascript needs to be enabled to access site." I check my preferences and javascript is enabled. I've tried this in Safari and Chrome and have no problems accessing the site. Also, as a side note the new version of gmail does not show up but instead defaults to a plain vanilla version. It tells me that some features may not work with this version of the browser. It does give me a opportunity to try the standard version (of gmail) and it works just fine but won't come up automatically when I open gmail. Thanks for trying to help! rf94

Do you get that pop-up already on the main page or only after you have logged on?

If the first is the case then can you post a link to a page that doesn't require authorization (sign on)?

The pop-up happens as soon as I click on the shortcut to the website. This is also happening on another banking website. I installed Firefox 7 and got the same results so I'm thinking there has to be another reason for this problem. Thanks again!

This site also uses JavaScript extensively, so if it works here then it should work there as well.

Did you try to access the site in Save mode?

  • Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled

Did you check your security software (firewall) to make sure that it isn't blocking JavaScript ?

Did you try to access the site in Save mode? Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled

yes, did all of the above and still got the same pop-up.

Did you check your security software (firewall) to make sure that it isn't blocking JavaScript ?

Firewall is down, not blocking anything.

Hi alamax, when I look at that site, there are many places you might be logging in. The form I tried was part of collection of controls powered by Flash. Do you get the Flash content? If not, it could be related to a recent update. Check out this article: Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox. If that isn't the issue, could you give a more specific set of steps to get to the screen where you get the message?

Edit: Thanks for the image. Coincidentally, that's the page I tried.

Did you try Safe mode?

You can use one of these to start Firefox in Safe mode:

  • Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
  • On Windows, hold down the Shift key while starting Firefox with a double-click on the Firefox desktop shortcut
  • On Mac, hold down the Options key while starting Firefox
