User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.0.3) Gecko/2008092510 Ubuntu/8.04 (hardy) Firefox/3.0.3
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.0.3) Gecko/2008092510 Ubuntu/8.04 (hardy) Firefox/3.0.3

MSN Hotmail no longer provides a functioning message body text editing window for reply/reply all and compose e-mail windows.  The controls for the message body text editing window are grayed out and nonfunctional.  The editing window does not place a text cursor in the window when the window is clicked.  My system is Linux Ubuntu, and Firefox 3.03.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Log into Hotmail account.
2. Click on the "New" button to activate the compose e-mail function.
3. New message form opens with a nonfunctional message body text editing window. 
4. Click on the message body text entry window to enter text.
5. Nothing happens.
6. All text control buttons are grayed out and nonfunctional.
Actual Results:  
Unable to enter message body text to complete the composition of a new e-mail.
This same result occurs for reply and reply all with the exception that the original message text does not appear in the message body window as usual.

Expected Results:  
Firefox should have opened a functional text edit window for the message body part of the message and allowed the placement of the text cursor at the beginning of the body of the e-mail.  All of the text control buttons should be active and ready to modify or set text attributes.  Text should be able to be written in the text edit window. 

For the reply and reply all modes, Firefox should place the original/message thread into the message body text window.  It no longer does this as well.  Please help here, this is a big bug that requires urgent attention.
