' (i.e. I'm), the find text window comes up (as if I'd pressed CTRL-F), and there is no way to type in an apostrophe. If I open notepad and type in there, it's fine, so often end up copying and pasting.... I updated Firefox and all was well again, though I've no idea what actually caused it - I read somewhere it may have been down to one of the plug-ins I had running at the time and I wasn't alone in experiencing this... But it may also be worth reinstalling Firefox if the problem persists, just to see if it's that? Then reinstall plug-ins one by one just to see whether that fixes it - or rather makes it reappear. Only happens occasionally, so not too much of a problem. Next time it happens I'll see if I can figure out what's causing it.jrleech wrote:Only happens occasionally, so not too much of a problem.

I use firefox all the time, the only thing I;ve ever seen with apostrophe is when it turns into a semicolon like it just did.
