On my computer, Firefox (5.0) does not show the forward and back navigation buttons on one particular website. But on another computer with Firefox 5.0 the navigation buttons are visible and functional. I checked the "Websites look wrong" suggestions, but it isn't page styles, zoom level, font size, or script. The navigation links appear to be in a table. I see the other cells, but not the forward and back links. Here is an example: <title>Diario de Yucatán - Ciudadanos rechazan la violencia</title>

The attached screen shots compare the results of blocking images on that site. If yours appears to match, you can unblock them as follows:

right-click the page and choose View Page Info

On the Permissions tab, under Load images automatically, check Use Default. Then close the dialog and reload the page. Does that fix it?

Thanks so much for taking the time to address my question. Although your suggestion wasn't the fix, it led me to the solution. I had gotten a little carried away with AdBlock Plus. (Mexican websites can be extremely trashy with flashing graphics and ads.) In return for unubstructed reading, I had lost ability to see the navigation arrows, which are also .gif graphics! Thank you again!
