No @ possible in Firefox

[Frank Sauerbier]

Hello, when I write in firefox 2 (OS is UX11v2) I am not able to write the @. I can open a terminal, write @ copy&paste into firefox. It is not very convenient.
Any ideas?

Thx Frank

Hi,

Could you post the output of the stty command?

Are you using CDE?

Hi,
yes. it is CDE.
The output of stty:

bash-2.05b# stty
speed 9600 baud; evenp hupcl
min = 1; intr = ^C; erase = ^H; kill = ^U;
eol2 = ^@; swtch = ^@;
susp = ^Z; dsusp = ^@;
werase = ^@; lnext = ^@;
-inpck -istrip icrnl -ixany ixoff onlcr
-iexten echo echoe echok

Best regards

Frank

Shalom,

First thing I see is you are using bash.

The POSIX shell is the shell actually designed for use with HP-UX.

I think its an environment issue. Try it with a standard user, using korn or posix shell.

SEP?....I think he's saying that he can't type the "@" in the firefox address bar, not at the terminal. Not sure why that would be tho....

[Frank Sauerbier]

Yes, you are right. In the terminal I can type it but not within firefox either the address bar nor any field in the browser....

which keyboard layout are you using? US, UK ?

[T G Manikandan]

Can you please start firefox in safe mode and try, might be some extensions are creating issues.?

[T G Manikandan]

you can also get to

Tools --> Add ons-- disable the Flash first

and try if this fixes,

Else can you disable all Add-ons and extensions and try please.
