Buttons Missing in Chrome - SOLVED
I searched the word "chrome" in this forum, but did not find any mention of a missing-button problem.
When I read FT using the Windows Chrome browser, several buttons are missing that are present when running Firefox:
"New Thread", "Reply", "Quote" and (when appropriate) "Edit"
The "Quick Reply" text-entry box and the "Post Quick Reply" button under it are visible, but do not work.
The solution, in my case, was to add flyertalk.com to the exceptions list in the Ghostery add-on. Perhaps FT's buttons are associated with a tracking bug, but if that were the case I would expect the same problem with Firefox (also running Ghostery) so it's still a bit of a mystery.
