As a workaround, go to Firefox menu ‣ Options ‣ Content, and click the "Advanced..." button that's next to the "Enable JavaScript" check box. A dialog will appear, in it, deselect "Disable or replace context menus".

Hi Adolfo

Thanks for the reply.

I assume you mean preferences, see attachment, as I don't recall seeing
Options at any stage.

Cheers

Yes. I didn't remember that what Firefox for Windows calls "Options", in Firefox for Linux is "Preferences". :-)

We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago and there have been many changes in Ubuntu and Firefox since that time.

Do you still see a problem related to the one that was reported using currently supported versions of Ubuntu and Firefox? Please let us know if you do and in which version of Ubuntu otherwise this report can be left to expire in approximately 60 days time.

Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better.
