Thank you to the many people who tested this. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox and still have the problem. However, I will try to adjust my settings to get this to work properly.
Thank you for your feedback.
Cheers,
Adam
Um, yes. In my original post I mentioned that the fade+delete works in Internet Explorer 6.x
I will have to weigh the security and stability of using Firefox against the version of WordPress I use.
I encourage others to do the same. I just was pointing out a problem that occurs with the most recent, public, stable verision of Firefox and WordPress so others don’t have the frustration I had. I tried EVERYTHING including deleting my databases, tables and reinstalling WordPress.
I’m just trying to help others.
Cheers,
Adam
