The calendar to book flights does not show up in Firefox. It does show up in IE.

Chosen solution

Yes. That is correct. They have chosen to display the calendar not for browsers with the Netscape appName and that includes Firefox.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Which steps do you perform on that page to see the calendar?

I only see selection input fields on that page that open a selection list when you click them and those work for me.

In the area "Online Reservation" and also "Time Table" next to the Departure Date and also next to the Return Date instead of imputing month/date/year there should be a small calendar as there is in IE.

This is what I get with IE. Has the calendars.

I might also add that I normally go into these websites using Roboform both in Firefox (no calendar) and IE (have calendar) and both do the same thing.

Those calendar icons are generated by JavaScript and only show if navigator.appName != "Netscape".
So for IE (Microsoft Internet Explorer) they will show, but not for Firefox ("NetScape"), although they do seem to work if I set navigator.appName to Microsoft Internet Explorer.


<script language="JavaScript">
<!-- if (navigator.appName != "Netscape") {	 
document.write ("<img src=\"/globalimage/b2c/button/calendar.gif\" align=\"absmiddle\" onMouseUp=\"window.open('/html/b2c/utility/calendar/calendar.asp?3', 'cal', 'location=no,menubar=no,status=no,titlebar=no,height=160,width=480,left=400,top=250')\">");
}
//<!--P1310M0384-->-->
</script>

Thank you Cor-el. You have been very helpful

You're welcome.

Maybe contact the site and ask them to enable the calendar for Firefox and other browsers as well.
