Joe,

If you are using Internet Explorer 6, that is the problem.  I believe certain 
versions of FireFox may do the same thing but 
don't know that for certain.  When I was having the problem, I experimented a 
lot and found no solution except to 
upgrade tpo IE 7 or 8.  If you have been using Facebook for a while and this 
just started and you are using IE 7 or 8 
already, the problem probably has to do with changes that they have been making 
in their mobile website.  My 
understanding is that they have tried to somehow make that site more 
device-specific.  It is working here with IE 8, but 
you might need to leave Active-X controls on or make other adjustments.

Best regards,

Steve Jacobson
