In some forms, I have dropdowns and textareas that show correctly as html and the source is appearing correctly. However, when I click on them nothing happens. I can't resize textareas and I cant move dropdowns. The keyboard is no help either. Also, if I go to a working field above the broken fields I can tab through fields, but once it reaches the broken fields then nothing gets focus. The broken fields are nested in a table.

You can right-click on a web page and select "Inspect Element" to open the Inspector (Firefox/Tools > Web Developer). You can check what element is selected.
