Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Firefox :: Untriaged, defect)

Description

[Stephen M [:ste]]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:13.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/13.0.1
Build ID: 20120614114901

Steps to reproduce:

After spending sometime playing around with other browsers (Maxathon, Opera etc) Ive come back to Firefox after missing most of the FF 13 release. 

I am currently watching this video about Android 4.1 from CNETTV

Actual results:

When I click the Reply button to any comment I just get the rollover image of the button. No text area to reply. Nothing but the rollover of ''Reply'' changes.


Expected results:

When clicking on Reply as many knows. Should give you a drop down text area to reply to that users comment.

Can you try running Firefox in safe-mode and see if it helps?

Sorry for the late reply.

I found out it was not restricted to Firefox what so ever but is related to the Youtube username update linking to ones Google+ account. (IE, youtubeusername changed to users real name from google+).

I enabled the use of my proper name and could comment again but dont prefer this and reverted back to separate youtubeusername with the original result. Cannot reply to comments.
