Firefox mobile remembers every facebook comment
How do I change the settings so Firefox will stop remembering every comment I have ever typed? I have tried everything I could think of.

Hello,
Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache. Note: This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to. To clear cache and cookies do the following:
- Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
- Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
- Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
- From the details list, check Cache and Cookies and uncheck everything else.
- Now click the Clear now button.
Further information can be found in the Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.
I wish I could do that. On the Android OS, it doesn't give you ANY of those options as you can see in the pictures. My computer is just fine, its the Firefox on my Android that keeps all the comments logged.
Thank you!
To prevent Firefox for Android from displaying form autocomplete suggestions, you can turn off that feature using the about:config page.
In the address bar, type or paste about:config and tap the Enter/Return key.
I suggest bookmarking this for easier future access.
In the search box, type or paste formf and tap the Enter/Return key.
Scroll down to browser.formfill.enable and tap the Toggle button to switch it from true to false.
That's it. Does it work on Facebook?
The about:config preferences editor in the mobile version is similar in principle to the desktop version but many of the preferences available on the desktop version have no effect in mobile. This one I only tested on one site, but it seems to work.
You will also have to clear form data that Firefox currently has saved.
Ahhh thank you Jscher. That did the trick. I was already searching in config for "form" but I didn't think it was that line. Thank god tho...because everytime I went to comment on many posts using Facebook's mobile site, all of my old comments would come up. There were over 200 and it kept messing up my screen trying to scroll it away.. :/ . That should be in the settings menu so its easy access.
