Permission denied errors on some sites clicking on a button.
On some sites and a NextCloud installation, I suddenly cannot click on some links that report following error in the console: Uncaught Error: Permission denied to access property "apply"
jQuery 7
clear searchprovider.js:292
attach merged-index.js:11661
jQuery 8
_setCurrentDir merged-index.js:5820
changeDirectory merged-index.js:5752
actionHandler merged-index.js:3432
action merged-index.js:2894
_onClickFile merged-index.js:4757
Underscore 3
jQuery 2
dispatch
handle
I've checked and disabled add-ons to see if these were blocking somehow, but no result. It worked fine before, so my suspicion is something changed in FF78? Thanks!

Did this previously worked in Firefox 77 and older ?
Can you post a link to a publicly accessible page (i.e. no authentication or signing on required) ?
You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:
You can reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
- hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
- press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
- press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
Clear the Cache and remove the Cookies for websites that cause problems via the "3-bar" Firefox menu button (Options/Preferences).
"Remove the Cookies" for websites that cause problems:
- Options/Preferences -> Privacy & Security
Cookies and Site Data: "Manage Data"
"Clear the Cache":
- Options/Preferences -> Privacy & Security
Cookies and Site Data -> Clear Data -> Cached Web Content: Clear
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
- switch to the DEFAULT theme: "3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Themes
- do NOT click the "Refresh Firefox" button on the Safe Mode start window

There is security software like Avast, Kaspersky, BitDefender and ESET that intercept secure connection certificates and send their own.

Thanks for the helpful links. I isolated the problem to this misbehaving add-on: ImTranslator: Translator, Dictionary, TTS.
That was very good work. Well Done.
