I use Yahoo to send text messages. After logging into yahoo mail, on the right side of compose message is a drop down message with three options Email, Instance message or SMS (text). When I select SMS it starts like it is going to open the text box and nothing happens. This started on 1/13/12 after the most recent update of firefox.

Hi,

In Yahoo, please try toggling the Options > Messenger Options > General between Small Window and Tab. This setting affects the Instant Message as well as SMS. If Tab is already selected, it'll open on the right of the last tab. On different days you may have to change the options and sometimes also do a Ctrl + F5 refresh, but one or the other of the options seem to work alternatively.
