I'm confused. I exclusively use Firefox. I signed up for a Twitter
account about 2 months ago and it was fine.

I've just gone to twitter.com and clicked the Seach button and it
still works fine - although it does use Javascript to submit the
search. Do you perchance have the NoScript plugin loaded in Firefox?
