Instructions begin with "Click on the three horizontal lines and select OPTIONS." My updated version of Firefox does not have OPTIONS. Reinstalling Firefox did not solve the problem. In OPTIONS, PDF is supposed to be in the list. Opening a pdf file in Firefox did not cause an edit option to appear.

In previous versions of Firefox (up to version 133), it was possible to automatically trigger printing of a PDF file by loading it into an iframe from a sandboxed iframe and call print. However, starting with version 134, this no longer works.

Is there any other way to automatically trigger the print dialog for a PDF file in Firefox, similar to how it can be done in Chrome/Edge (e.g., by opening the PDF in a new window and directly triggering the print dialog without additional button clicks)?

How can i download a pdf of my passwords. I think i need to set up a lock screen first. Please give precise instructions how to accomplish both these tasks. Im having great difficulty signing in and out of sites so until i figure out how and why things have changed i need a list of passwords. My device is currently unlocked. I have trouble finding my way back to my questions here. Why doesnt firefox have a history function? Sometimes it does but its not recent. I put all these questions together because its too difficult finding my way back to every individual question. I have a hundred questions about firefox so many that its daunting to consider as it would take me days to do and its time i dont have. Somehow my firefox account has gotten too confusing and complex

I'm trying to configure Firefox on Mac using our MDM. The goal is ultimately to control a bunch of settings, but I'm trying to start simple by just installing the 1Password extension.

When I deploy this .mobileconfig file, nothing seems to happen to Firefox. I made this by following the example at https://github.com/mozilla/policy-templates/blob/master/mac/org.mozilla.firefox.plist but it doesn't seem to work and I am not sure how to debug.

Recently starting having the issue where some whites and the tab icons appear washed out and even glitched out and pink when using my PC. I haven't made any significant changes to my system as far as I recall.

Colours in other browsers and applications are effected. Going to the same webpage on both Brave and Edge shows the whites correctly. On all the games on my PC there are no glitches in colours.

I have tried a few fixes already: -Removing and re-downloading GPU drivers - Fixes the issue temporarily. After about 1 day the issue comes back. -Re-seating the GPU - No fix. -Turning off colour override in Firefox - No fix. -Uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox - No fix.

If anyone has an idea or knows the setting that may be causing this problem I would really appreciate it.

Firefox 134.0.2

Hi!

I was shocked when I recently visited a website of a company that offers IDEs. I've downloaded one of the IDEs a couple of weeks ago and now that I've came back to the website looking for plugins, the website still "knew" which version of the IDE I had downloaded because it gave me warnings about plugins not compatible with my IDE version. Now: My privacy settings in Firefox are "strict", the option "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" is checked and I've closed Firefox several times in the meantime. Still, the website has information about my identity.

I would have expected that with these settings something like what I've described wouldn't happen. I must say, I'm quite disappointed. Is there anything else that I can do within Firefox to enhance my privacy?

Hi,

I'm working on a Firefox extension where I need to detect print event. I've tried the following approaches:

  • beforeprint – Fires immediately when the print dialog opens (works correctly in Chrome).
  • afterprint – Fires immediately when the dialog closes (works correctly in Chrome).
  • window.focus and visibilitychange – Work inconsistently with noticeable delay, depending on how Firefox handles focus/visibility updates after closing the dialog.

Questions: 1. Is there a reliable way in Firefox to detect print event? 2. Are there any known workarounds or events that could be used for this purpose?

Thanks.

As of today (?), on certain websites, such as Reddit, or on certain elements of some websites, such as text on Google Search's accordion components, Japanese text is suddenly being rendered in Chinese (see images). I have seen reports about this by other users (on Reddit).

This is fixed if `ja` under `font.cjk_pref_fallback_order` is moved to the front. However, I found a comment on Bugzilla stating that the `font.cjk_pref_fallback_order` setting is only honored if Firefox can't determine system font preferences, but `about:support` lists my locales as ["en-AU","ja-JP"].

Probably a bug?

Since FF35, using linux with e26wm, the title bar is gone. Screen seems to be stuck in full setting - F11 just shows/hides top right min/max/exit toggles. Min/max doesn't work. Going to customize toolbars, title bar option is there and checked but the option itself looks like it is grayed out (lighter color). Screen cannot be resized. I am used to a menu accessed via rt. click on the title bar but that is gone (I do have access to that menu with combo alt/rt-clk anywhere on screen - see below). That menu had a shade option (window shade like) which I used extensively but thats gone. If I click alt-rt click anywhere on the screen, I can get my missing control menu back without the shade option but with a borderless option checked which cannot be changed. I am fully aware that linux + E26 is kinda out there but have been all over my settings (includes border settings which firefox ignores). I can't find any permission settings on config/js/pref files which may be a cause. Thing is, mozilla thunderbird's screens work and title bar is in place with desired menu, etc. as do all other apps except ms edge, which leads me to feel it is a firefox setting somewhere and I believe it is the side thingy that everyone seems to love in chromium/chrome might be the cause - the tabs on top option which I don't have an interest in. Sorry for the length here but I'm at my wits end and all a google search offers (here as well) is to go customize etc. etc. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated - been using FF on linux since day 1 without any problems I couldn't figure out till now.

ver: 134.0.1 Windows 10 Pro I have Firefox set to open filetype PDF in Browser. Normally I use IDM which automatically download PDFs, unless I press ALT key while clicking DOWNLOAD button, then it does not, in order to allow Firefox to handle the PDF.

Firefox presently does nothing. With filetype setting set to Open in Browser, Firefox Does nothing. If settings are set to Ask, it does not ask. The PDF filename appears at bottom of screen momentarily.

ver: 115.19.0esr Windows 7 Utl 7601 The exact same behaviour was also seen on a Windows 7 system running Firefox 115.19.0esr. PDF is also set there to "Open in Firefox". Again, when ALT pressed when clicking Download button, Firefox does nothing.
