I am able to start a topic with FireFox. I am able to reply to a topic with FireFox. I am able to fill in the private message topic line with FireFox.
However, I am not able to fill in the private message text block with FireFox.
This seems to be a new development.
Anyone else having this issue?
Thanks
Yeah, I mentioned that in a similar thread a couple of weeks ago, Rick:

Seems to only affect the newest rendition of Firefox (67.0.0 and >). The previous versions worked just fine. As a temporary fix I've been using MS Edge when PMing anyone.

Time...It marches on...without ever turning around to see if anyone is even keeping in step.
It's going to be in the 'security' permissions, which I noted changed fairly dramatically in the latest release. (For more amusement, the new version 'blocks' rendering new Google searches (!) including any pages of references (!!) but searches conducted from the subject line of any open post work, and render, just fine. That's going to be some mystery-meat sequence of accidental keypresses or clicks in the wrong place that tells the program to blacklist 'unintentionally', something the Mac people have made a science of since at least 10.3.1 with some of the 'handicap accommodation' key-combination switching.
My initial suspicion is that the Kalmbach code that renders the text window is being confused with one of the new things you can block in the tracker section. When I find out exactly what some of those mystery things are, I might have a better answer. But it's them, keeping you safe from Kalmbach whether you want to or not. Maybe Kalmbach can work from their end to implement something the nannies won't flag!
Not sure I am hijacking the thread. I cannot post in the first forum.

There is a reply option but I cannot post anything. No reply from my keyboard.
Not sure this is Firefox. I have the latest version.

If you ever fall over in public, pick yourself up and say “sorry it’s been a while since I inhabited a body.” And just walk away.
Same problem with pm's, no problem with trains.com and Firefox. Firefox has been troublesome for the last several months with a number of websites or upgrades. If it wasn't for a couple of apps I use to download videos and youtube videos, I would give up on it.

This is correct. some of the older protocols such as Flas and java etc have been depreciated and are no longer supported.
It matters no which browsewr you use, they will all be dumping the older, less secure protocols in favor of the newer html-5.
