    Firefox - why do insert buttons/emoticon not work?

    In the last three days I have lost the ability to use the buttons/insert icon etc within the edit window using Firefox. Similarly I have lost the ability to expand images on ebay.

    Its not a problem when I revert to Internet Explorer.

    Mozilla 5.0 Windows 6.0 Firefox 3.6.18

    Whats the problem.

    You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.

    It might also be time to update your Firefox as the current version is 5.0.

    I seem to recall Adobe wanting to do heaps of updates a while back. It seemed like every time I turned the PC on it wanted to run an update for Adobe.

    I installed the latest Java version and uninstalled the previous versions and everything seems O.K. again.

    Thanks everyone.

    Back to the same symptoms, tried updating microsoft stuff, nothing, updated java, nothing, tried changing to Google Chrome but all it does is open a firefox window in chrome with same symptoms.

    Also on the RFI antenna site the following command doesn't work (extra spaces added <a & /a>) < a id="slideForward" class="slideButton">&gt;</a >

    Also when I elect "Quick Links" I no longer get the dropdown menu but a completely different menu bar?????

    I hate computers! (I would add some sad face emoticons but have to type the code not click the icon)

    My firefox was playing up about 3-4 weeks ago.
    Downloaded Chrome and been on that ever since.
    Its alot quicker and doesnt seem to suffer the eratic problems that I had with Firefox.

    Still get the occasional sticky mouse problem tho.
    Can anyone shed any light on why the mouse freezes every now and then.
    Running windowzs 7 and the notebook is approx 9 months old.

    cheers
