checkboxes not displaying in webaccess of maximizer (program)

more options

When I open the webaccess of the program maximizer in IE it works perfectly but when I use any version of Firefox newer than version 3.0 the checkboxes will not display. How can I make checkboxes available in Firefox 5. Is there a plugin?

I'm running XP SP3 however this happens on the server, windows 7 machines and other xp machines. This is definately a bug in the newer versions of Firefox.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Thanks for the reply but none of what you suggested worked. The link i'm going to points to a local pc on my network.

since this is an .aspx page doesn't that explain why IE7 can display the checkboxes and FireFox 3 can as well but FireFox 5 will not. Any related suggestions please. I've already tried all the usual fixes.

Without taking a look at the code or checking that page in Firefox 5 it is hard to tell what is wrong with it.

Do you see any errors related to this in the Tools > Error Console?

Is any content being generated via JavaScript?


If you are comfortable with checking code on web pages then try the DOM Inspector.

I'm getting a lot of the following errors on the URL. Warning: Error in parsing value for VARIABLE. Declaration dropped. Source File: http://thor/maximizerwebaccess/Content/ContentPage.aspx Line: 0

Tried DOM but didn't get very far. Couldn't generate any kind of meaningful report.
