    Default O.K., this is crazy!

    Every time I try to use the apostrophe key, I get some sort of "quick find" that pops up on the bottom of my page. It doesn"t happen with the "" marks (as you can see I couldn"t put apostrophes in either of these words)

    It's a firefox thing. Somehow you hit a key (don't ask me which one, I haven't figured it out yet - it's kind of like hitting F11 and having your address bar disappear) and it opened up the quick search. You can get rid of it by closing the window & opening a new one. I do it ALL the time & it drives me nuts.

    I do know it's the F3 key that opens the quick search box, but I can't figure out what makes the apostrophe open the quick search box.

    I'm getting increasingly unhappy with Firefox! I can't use it on sites that require flash or java script anymore. I'm about to try Opera. I hear it's really good.

    Happens to me sometimes when I'm trying to chat. It's a known bug: http://www.liamdelahunty.com/tips/fi...trophe_bug.php

    You're not able to view flash or java with FF? Have you downloaded the plugins?
