Thread: Javascript Links in FireFox

I have been using FireFox for nearly half a year now, and it has worked fine on (nearly) all sites, including the SWG forums.

However, yesterday I tried to create a new message, and the "New Message" button was not a link. It showed in the info bar as a javascript link, but the cursor didnt turn into a pointy-hand to signify that it was clickable. Clicking it anyway did nothing

I learnt that this problem was not just for new posts, but for replies, PMs, and all of my profile pages (can get to the first one my clicking on "My Profile" but trying to click things like "Subscriptions" or "Preferances" does nothing)


I started up IE (blew the dust off it first!) and after a lot of mucking about trying to log in, I find that all the links work ok in IE.


So is there a problem with FF? And is there a way round it?

I installed no new software as far as I know, and did not update FF for 1.0.2 until today (thought it might have fixed it)

I have all the latest Java things I should need.


Any help would be appreciated

Bah, to used to using FF and automatically use it to check SWG forums.

I must look like a saint not reply to any of those annoying CU haters on the testing forums, but its just because I cant reply

GIVE ME MY FF BACK!

I have no problems using FF with the forums, for viewing and responding... I used to get an error on the JS console when replying cos the WYSIWYG editor thing they have uses ridiculous IE only code instead of ff/moz/everything-but-ie compatible code. That was resolved yonks ago tho as I just turned off the WYSIWYG editor in the profile options.

I think I fixed it. I relogged on the forums and everything seems to be working fine.
I didnt say so before because I assume nobody had read this.
