I've kept until now an older version of firefox (3.x) for the sake of compatibility with babylon translator and roboform but silly me, I installed firefox 6 yesterday to find that CTRL+right click just pass a blank statement to babylon... Are there others with the same issue ? And why some company feel the need to not follow standard programming ?? Pffff

wanted Babylon translator to work with Firefox 6

Been in this group for about 3 months and I've only seen requests on how to remove the "Babylon" toolbar. So it also seems strange that 4 others also have the same problem, prompted maybe by a news article somewhere?

Google has gotten rid of their toolbar on the current Firefox, but you can see what your alternatives are for translating are at the following, the bookmarklets can be adapted to other translators though would probably have to specify the from and to translation languages for other translators.

Please mark "Solved" one answer that will best help others with a similar problem -- hope this was it.

You can make Firefox 6.0 look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered items 1-10 in the following topic Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 6.0, look like 3.6). Whether or not you make changes, you should be aware of what has changed and what you have to do to use changed or missing features.

There is a lot more beyond those first 10 steps listed, if you want to make Firefox more functional.

Thank you for the answer (I already managed to use status 4 evar as I used fission with my 3.6.x firefox and wanted to have the same progress bar functionnality (fission isn't compatible with ff 6.x). Unfortunately, the issue isn't the disapearance of the status bar or else rather than ff6 handling text in a non standard way, making babylon unable to process requests.
