I've been told that I have to activate JavaScript on my Firefox browser to view content. I don't know how to do that. I don't see that I even have JavaScript anywhere in my browser. Do I have to download it as an add on? Or what?

Thanks.

Hi   !
Type in the address bar:   about:config
(click   'I'll promise to be careful')
Under the Preference Name heading: scroll down until you find the   'javascript enabled'  row,   and set i't's value to 'True'.
