When I create an html doc in Dreamweaver and I go to the option Preview in Browser and select Firefox, nothing happens. It is supposed to open a Firefox windows and preview the doc there, but it won't.

That is a bug on Mac.

See Bug 549680 – Preview from Dreamweaver CS3/CS4 does not work in FF3.6

Just DL'd Firefox13 and it still seems the same! Out of date or not... It bugged me so here's my answer(MAC), download Firefox 3.5.8 from Mozilla old versions(easy search) and rename it to something relevant, this is your browser for Dreamweaver previews. Download the lastest FF version for general browsing. Edit your dreamweaver browser list to use 3.5.8 - It's a workaround but simply fire up 3.5.8 during site editing and it's plain sailing. Poor-show Mozilla.
