Firefox won't let me minimize my screen.

I am using the latest version of firefox and it will not let me minimize my screen. It will let me close it, and shrink it down but not completely minimize it into my dock. How do i fix this?

How are you trying to minimize it?

Is the yellow button in the upper left corner of the window greyed out?

It isn't greyed out. It just won't let me click it. I click it and it doesn't do anything.

Have you restarted? Do you have any theme changers installed?

I experienced the same problem a couple of days ago with my MBP and the latest version of Firefox. No theme changers were installed. Ultimately, it even stopped letting me clcik in the address bar to type in a new URL.

A restart did fix the problem. But there does seem to be an issue where if Firefox has been left open for too long or if you have a certain number of tabs open, it will stop responding to mouse clicks for some (or even all) functions.
