I am running a ViewSonic G Tablet, hacked with the Zpad ROM. Firefox launches with a darkened screen, but the Android bar at the top of the screen is bright. When I click in the URL field, no keyboard comes up. It works fine on my Droid 2, would love to use it on my tablet.

Sorry, we haven't seen this problem before, and I don't have a ViewSonic tablet to test with.

Do you know which keyboard software the tablet is using? Does switching input methods make any difference?

The stock Android keyboard and the "Tap and Tap" keyboards both have the same problem. I am using a custom ROM so that may be playing a part in this. I'm just checking every resource I can.
