Link or buttons often are not visible on some pages although I can find them by moving the cursor around in the area I expect the link to be (as in a "Checkout now" button).

This happens mainly on pages from commercial sites. For example, my online banking site. Most of page displays, but often critical stuff like an approval button is invisible even tho the link is there. I have been on the phone with a person at a commercial site who also uses Firefox and that person could see everything on the page. What settings should I check?

See:

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

  • Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

I have been baffled by this same problem for almost a month now. The biggest puzzlement for me was that it was occurring on internet pages whether I was using Firefox or IE 6.0. This made me think it was something in my settings but for the life of me I couldn't figure out the setting nor find any answer on the internet.... until today!

Try this page and see if it corrects your problem: http://en.kioskea.net/faq/60-white-background-s-problem-in-web-pages

It is the high-contrast setting under Accessibility Options from Control Panel. Make sure that the High-Contrast is NOT checked.

Hope this helps!
