"Right Click" not working (1 Viewer)

[Pilote87]

Can anybody give any suggestions, please?

For about a week now I cannot open anything up into a new tab, new window, or a new private window, BUT the problem only seems to be with MHF. I can't even click on a link to an external connection to open it up. An example of this is the link to the lady driver not understanding what cruise control is.

I can see the link trying to open up the new tab / window, but it immediately closes down again.

I am running Firefox on my HP laptop.

Thanks in anticipation

Have you got pop ups blocked

this might just show how useless I am at technology, but don't you use left click not right click ?

failing that when did you last restart your laptop, that seems to fix most of my issues

If the problem is only when viewing MHF best send a note to Jim about the problem.

Yes I have, but I have blocked pop-ups for a long time

A left click will open something up in the same tab. I am used to right clicking a number of threads as I go down a page and then working my way through them. This saves having to keep going back to to the original page and, perhaps, forgetting where you had got to. I think a centre click will do the same thing, but not sure

I have restarted my computer at least twice since the problem started, so don't think that is the solution.

I will. Any thoughts @Jim

I will do that now and come back with the result.

Thank you all for your suggestions. Much appreciated.

Try getting a previous backup and seeing if that works

 

[Pilote87]

@pappajohn I have cleared the Firefox cache, but to no effect.

@denisejoe I'm being a bit thick tonight as I am not sure what you mean.

However, I am off to bed now as I am an hour in front of you and have been up about 18 hours now. I'm getting old. I'll check here again in the morning.

Thank you

Did you also clear cookies and physically type www.motorhomefun.Co.Uk into your address bar?

Yep, done that! Laptop has been off overnight, re-cleared cache and cookies (remove all option) this morning and re-started computer. Still no change.

It does seem that I am only having this problem on "Fun", not on other forum(s) or

Try another browser and see if you have issues then.

@Jim, thanks Now why didn't I think of doing that? I loaded up Chrome and it worked, but I didn't log in as I can't remember what password I am using on Fun at the moment. The lack of a password shouldn't make any difference though, should it?
