When I click on a small image (photo) on someone's post on facebook, it goes to a blank black screen. The face book team advised that something in my mozilla settings prevented me from seeing the images. Can you assist me please?

See:

  • http://kb.mozillazine.org/Images_or_animations_do_not_load
  • You can see the permissions for the domain in the current tab in Tools > Page Info > Permissions
  • You can check the exceptions in Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions
  • You can check the Tools > Page Info > Media tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images)

There are also extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) that can block images.


You can use these steps to check if images are blocked:

  • Click the "More Information" button to open the "Page Info" window with the Security tab selected (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
  • Go to the Media tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
  • Select the first image link and scroll down through the list with the Down arrow key.
  • If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "Block Images from..." then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
