When I use Firefox for Yahoo mail the tabs such as sign out, search email, help seem to be disabled. How do I make them work? Works in Internet Explorer

There are a number of tabs at top of my inbox such as sign out, search email, help, etc. They do not work. For example cannot insert a name for search email- will not give me the curser to do this. When I use internet explorer these tabs do work so not a problem with Yahoo mail- must be problem with Firefox. Recently updated Firefox.

If that does not solve the problem:
