When I open any website where there is a data entry box, i.e. Google. I cannot type anything in the box. The keyboard will appear and seems to work but nothing is entered. When I go to the top, address bar, and try, it does type there. I can open the default Android browser and can then enter in the boxes. This did not happen, with Firefox until recently.

I have moved on from the above post. I uninstalled Firefox and re-installed. Still no keyboard. I have now installed G Chrome, keyboard works in Chrome and still works when you go to Firefox? When you then close Firefox and reopen it, the keyboard no longer works?
