When submitting or replying to a post I've suddenly been unable use the 'Insert Hyperlink' button and can only insert a hyperlink using the paste function. Can anyone help me with this?

Thanks for the help Steve.

Unfortunately it doesn't work for me. It used to but not now. Maybe it's got something to do with a Firefox update? :nenau

Since swapping to Firefox I've had the same issue, I also cannot use the image button either and have to type in the tags handraulically. :(

I think it's possibly more to do with installed themes and/or extensions than Firefox itself, but I've never bothered to remove them all and find out which one causes it.
 
Had the same with the last few versions of Firefox........my IMG tags work though. :nenau

Don't think it's down to extensions....I tried it on this machine with the plain vanilla firefox just after it was installed fresh and they didn't work.

I also cut'n paste from a text file on my desktop with all the scripts in it (like the embed video ones etc ec)

Pain in the arse, but FF is still way better than IE .
Anyone tried the new beta IE yet BTW?? It's got tabbed browsing but I haven't looked at it yet ?

Had it installed for a couple of months, but it's still lacking many of the nice FF features.
 
Went from F/F to opera because of the tags not working and tried the return button with no luck, also disabled all my extensions. F/F also seems a tad hungry on recources in the latest few versions. :nenau
 
Have you checked to make sure you're Firefox is completely uptodate? I use it and I have no problems using the hyperlink options etc
 
SOAA - Yes it's bang up to date. The hyperlinks used to work but just suddenly stopped one day. Maybe they'll just start up again hey! :)
 
hmm, not too sure then
As I say, mine seems to work fine but a few of my other m8s who use Firefox have mentioned similar problems to what you're experiencing.

I'll let you know if I find out what it is :)
