FF version 23.0 - The title attribute not longer renders a tooltip for images.
Since version 22.0 and now 23.0 none of the title attributes work for images or anchor tags as far as displaying tool-tips to the user. The QA department just doesn't accept, "Well, it's there.", as an appropriate fix to bugs.

Can you post a link to a publicly accessible page that doesn't require authentication (signing on)?
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
- Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.
No I cannot. We are behind a massive firewall. I've tried the Safe Mode trick. Nothing. Thanks for trying to help.
I'm struggling to think of a way to block the title attribute tool tip... two things come to mind, but it's unlikely they are happening accidentally:
(1) Blank child node title will block parent node title. What I mean is:
<a href="blah" title="link title"><span title="">link text</span></a>
(2) Scripts can do it, but probably you would know whether you are doing this...

Edit: Escaped HTML.

Can you post a stripped down version of the code that is used and that shows this problem?
Excellent observations both.
I know what you mean in #1. We don't code that way.
We have not written any jQuery that is blocking. The other developers that have upgraded to 22.0 or 23.0 don't have the problem.
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Creating a profile":

If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from an existing profile to the new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.
