I can not see a navigation button, such as "go", "order", or "continue". For example, on yahoo's finance page, when searching for a stock symbol, the "go" or "find" navigation button is invisible. The mouse arrow turns to a hand when moved across a blank space, but no button is visible. This situation also occurs when selecting an item to order and when making payments. I use a navy blue background and white text. This problem is not limited to yahoo, it also happens at other websites.

This bug was originally reported on Firefox 2.x or older, which is no longer supported and will not be receiving any more updates. I strongly suggest that you update to Firefox 3.6.6 or later, update your plugins (flash, adobe, etc.), and retest in a new profile. If you still see the issue with the updated Firefox, please post here. Otherwise, please close as RESOLVED > WORKSFORME
