I just updated Firefox to Version 11.0 on my Mac OS X Version 10.6.8. The Yahoo! Babel Fish still does not work with non-Roman based scripts, such as Russian, Greek, Chinese, etc.

If you attempt to translate text in one of such scripts into English, both the input and output windows get garbled characters (which are supposed to be codes of some sort); if you attempt to translate English into one of these languages, you get a blank space.

If I use Safari Version 5.1.4, however, Yahoo! Babel Fish works perfectly.

Hope this problem can be solved soon.

Thanks!

You already posted in another thread about this issue, so you know that there is probably so solution known at this time.

Did you try to contact the site and ask them to look at this issue with the current Firefox version (10 and up)?

Thought about it earlier, but had no idea where to submit the message. After another session of tortuous search, came up with the Yahoo! Help page, and submitted a similar message there.

Thank you for the suggestion! --R.

I've had the same issues for the past couple of months. I did not see your question earlier in the day, so I posted a similar question here:

@cor-el - He says it works fine in Safari. It works fine for me in Chrome or IE also. This is not an issue with the babelfish page. This is a Firefox issue.
