tool bar on Zotero pane missing

Z-user
I am having a problem with a couple of sites, e.g., www.webmd.com www.sciencedaily.com.
I want the printable version to go into my archive, so I click on the icon for a printable version of the page. A new pop-up window with the printable version of the page appears.
I then click on the Zotero icon in the Firefox status bar to open up Zotero.
The Zotero pane opens in the lower half of the browser window, but I only can see the collection information. The Zotero tool bar is missing, so I can't add the item to my collection.
Is there a way to resolve this problem? How can I get the information into my Zotero collection?

I seem to remember in the past that if I right clicked on a web page, one of the options had something to do with adding the page to my Zotero collection. I am not able to see this option now on any web page (not just the problem sites listed above). Did this feature exist?

    This was already fixed in 1.5.

    No, but you can create an item+note from a selection, create a snapshot from a link or image, or add a selection to an existing note.

    I am using Zotero 1.0.9

    I found this fix or work-around: http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/3247/
    Type about:config into the Firefox address bar, find the dom.disable_window_open_feature.toolbar pref, and double-click it to set it to true.

    problem resolved

    Thanks
