When you right click on the Firefox icon do you see Add to Panel as an option?

Those icons and everything is there it just when I open something up it don't get added to the panel. There are times I might be running 5 programs then they just stack up then if I need one I have to start closing them tell see the one I want. That a pain that a real pain when I copy from one to another one.

What is your browser configured to do when opening a link: New tab, New Window, New Private Window?

looks like for whatever reason the window list panel plugin has crashed or something.
try: rightclick on the panel in the blank area; choose "add to panel"; scroll down to "window list"; click to highlight it; click the "add" button .
