This seems to be a JCR session management issue as Felix mentioned. I tried a quick fix/workaround by releasing the session and it seems to have made this issue resolved. Having said that, I think we need to revisit our session management code in general to avoid this type of issue. > 2. in the /admin/admin.html page in Firefox on windows/linux , click on the > settings tab and it disappears off the btm of screen. > Please use /admin/upload.html for uploading images. > 3.
