Hi, I updated yesterday to Firefox 10.0 and then I updated also Java Platform. I'm now having this problem: I use Java in one webpage and have other tabs opened. When I switch between tabs the menu bar becomes grey and I'm not able to type in the text fields of any tabs (address bar, search bar or text fields in webpages). The menu bar anyway it's still active (I can click and choose what to do). When I make some operation (ie: Tools - Download but also any other) the menu turns back in bold and I can type again. I'm using Windows xp professional, Service Pack 2. Let me know if you need more info. Thanks in advance for your help. C.

Yep! I also have this problem! You are not alone. Interacting with Java and then clicking the address bar seems to disable it so that you can't highlight or type in the address bar! This is really annoying me and I hope it gets a fix fast.

Thanks for sharing. ^.^
