I have been using IE for quite a while but just updated my version of Firefox and started using that. When I bring up an Excel Forum page, the breadcrumbs are not clickable links, as they are in IE and as they are coded to be.
I can't possibly be the only one who has seen this. Am I? Is this a browser issue, or that the coding for these pages is IE-specific?

Hi 6,
I also use Firefox, but the breadcrumbs work fine for me.
Would you like to say thanks? Please click the: "Add Reputation" button, on the grey bar below the post.
I don't use FF (prefer Chrome) but I just tested on 3.5.16 and all worked as expected - is it all forums / which FF version etc
My Recommended Reading:
Volatility
Sumproduct & Arrays
Pivot Intro
Email from XL - VBA & Outlook VBA
Function Dictionary & Function Translations
Dynamic Named Ranges
I have used FireFox with no problems. I've also use Opera, IE & generally Chrome
Hope that helps.

I exclusively use FF in this forum, currently on 3.6.13 and don't have any issues with the forum.
@6SJ which skin are you using?
Remember what the dormouse said
Feed your head
I am using 3.6.13 with the default skin (didn't even know you could customize the skin).
The issue occurs on every page with breadcrumbs under excelforum.com
As far as the skin is concerned...
I have been using Zoom for a larger font size to help my aging eyes. I discovered that this is the problem. When I reduce the zoom to 100% the problem goes away. When zoomed up to a certain point, the Log Out button bleeds over into the next line and everything gets messed up.
The new/default skin has severe problems with resizing and lines breaking. I don't think it's a problem with the old/child skin.
The breadcrumbs I'm talking about is not the path in the Explorer address bar but the top of the Forum page (I guess it's only seen in the new skin) like this:Originally Posted by MarvinP

And I couldn't make heads nor tails of the content in that second link.

I have this same problem also using firefox and also with the text zoomed. Using Firebug it looks like the <ul id="navmenu"> tag is covering the underlying anchor tags. Could be z-index issue.
