Hi I've just noticed that trying to access my web page:

OS= ANDROID 4.2.2 CMS= Joomla Framework= Gantry. No other fancy stuff

 On Firefox trying to select a sub item from my menu it is not possible on Firefox for ANDROID,  because when you tap on menu it loads the page of the menu, not giving you the opurtunity to select a sub item.
 Also if you swipe the finger on the menu it does't scroll down, 
 On the default Browser of the tablet THIS WORKS !.
 On the Chrome for android also works.

This only happens on android with tablet since, on Android Smartphone a Menu tree is shown.

Note: I do not code the web page, I'm using normal functions of CMS and Framework.

Is there any configuration on the browser by default that can affect this?

This is probably an issue with the framework incorrectly detecting Firefox for Android or coding for a webkit only mobile world. Are you able to provide an example where this is happening?
