I have two small problems with Firefox: Problem-1: on the web page "http://www.ibgroep.nl/studiepunt/NT2Examens/Asp/select_nt2.asp" it does not function when I press the "Next" button "Verder" in Dutch. Problem-2: I have many web pages that when activated supposed to start in a new page and they work fine under Microsoft Internet Explorer 8. However, with Firefox they start mainly in a new tab or on the same current page.

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

== I ccess or activate the web pages!

Hello,

for the first issue:

That's a JavaScript issue, the website tries to find an element via it's ID, but the element has only a name tag containing the ID: That's why Firefox's JS engine doesn't work.

In the other issue, you can find an add-on called TabMixPlus. See https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fire.../1122/ for further details.

You can use this bookmarklet on that page to copy the name to the id: javascript:void(document.forms[0].id=document.forms[0].name);

To the solution from Tobbi: I installed the "TabMixPlus" add-on but the problem is still the same, instead of opening a new window it open a new tab!

To the solution from cor-el: I have no idea what you mean or how to use this bookmarklet on that page! Thank you to both. Regards, Michael Najar

After you have opened the http://www.ibgroep.nl/studiepunt/NT2Examens/Asp/select_nt2.asp page you can copy and paste the code in the location bar and press the Enter key. If you need to visit that page more often then you can create a bookmark and copy and paste the full code in the location field of that bookmark.
