cannot get a javasript alert to work in FF, but the same alert works in IE, Chrome, Opera.
Just trying to get the below alert message to display in FF, but it won't. It works in other browsers. I checked the settngs in Options/Content and Javascript is on. This could be obvious but I can't see anything.
alert("Example message!");

Try "text/javascript" for your type attribute. Firefox does not run jscript.

How and where are you trying to run that JavaScript code?
You can no longer run JavaScript code via the location bar in Firefox 6 and later.
You can use the Scratch pad (Firefox > Web Developer > Scratchpad; Shift+F4) to run JavaScript code.
It references a javascript file from the head tag. See code sample below. It works in other browsers without any problems.
<head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> <title>Example</title> <script type="text/jscript" src="example.js"></script>
</head>
And this is the code in the javascript file: alert("Example message!");

Thanks, knorretje. That worked.
