Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

This is Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex) Ff 3.0.3. The right context menu does not open. When an either an add-on is installed or the browser is restarted the error console opens up.

I expect: upon right click in the Ff3.0.3 browser window the context menu should open with all the functions enabled.
But WHAT HAPPENED INSTEAD is: Within the browser window the the right context menu is NOT opening and instead the error console opens up showing some errors.

A screen shot is enclosed with this report.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue for you. Can you try with the latest version of Firefox 3.0? Thanks in advance.

Let me try and if there is something to report I shall revert, but at this
point of time I am not using that version and have requested for the new
version to be shipped to me.
