I only know that there are other tabs open because the + button is halfway across the tab bar. then when I click in what appears to be an empty space with no tab, a tab opens up, and the one that I was working on disappears again.??...

please help!! many thanks

Could you post a screenshot that describes your problem? It sounds like something that may be a Firefox bug.

Thanks for the reply, Bram - please see images.

I have 5 tabs open, the first screen shot shows where the 'new tab' button is, the second screen shot just shows another of the tabs. I haven't installed any add-ons, themes or persona's recently, and cant relate this issue back to anything at the moment, but will keep thinking

Thanks

It could be a Toolbar issue. Could you try resetting and see if it will solve the problem?

  1. On the menu bar, click the Help menu and select Restart with Add-ons Disabled... Firefox will start up with the Firefox Safe Mode dialog.
  2. Put a check mark by Reset toolbars and controls and Reset all user preferences to Firefox defaults.
  3. Click Make Changes and Restart.
