up until a few days ago i didnt have any problems. now i cant go to any website and have it load correctly because it says javascript is not enabled. no matter where i look i cant find how to re-enable it.

Chosen solution

Firefox for a while now has enabled javascript by default with no obvious controls to disable it.

it is more likely you have some script blocker or adblocker causing this problem.

There is a preference

javascript.enabled

but that would normally always be set as true, unless something or someone is changing it. You may look at and change that by typing

about:config

into the address bar & pressing enter. Accept any warning. Then type in to the page's search bar

va.en

highlight the pref by right clicking and toggle to true if necessary
