Back in the days it was always possible to change Proxy port number (or, I believe, any other numeric value) by moving the mouse scrolling wheel when the cursor is placed inside the related field. I don't know whose intelligent decision it was to disable this functionality, but it has gone since the last update (v130.0). Now the window scrolls regardless of the cursor position. It looks like it works fine, but for those who are used to this kind of functionality, it turns out to be inconvenient.

Please, roll this back before it's too late :) Thank you.

Normally, when zoom in on a web page in Firefox, the page will adjust so the page content is still visible, by insisting the magnified content is still visible, or a vertical scroll bar is created to reveal the content.

I also run into pages where the content is only visible when the page is 100% or less.

Can this be adjusted?

hi

i cant beleive it mozilla has such [edited] sustomr service that dont help at all total waste of time going through all the faqs and no human to talk to. mozilla needs to improve customer service help section.

When a tab is opened or moved into a new window (image 2.png), the additional windows will disappear from the Windows taskbar after a few moments (image 3.png) and cannot be accessed via Alt+Tab, the only way to reach that window is via dragging the windows around or with the Firefox View tab.

I am (again) running into trouble with spelling.

I got this offered to me: https://www.google.com/search?client=ubuntu-sn&channel=fs&q=how+to+set+dictionary+in+firefox

Doesn't quite work. Wrong things declared, etc.

I see a "badly spelt" word. Double click, go to add dictionary.

To the best of my knowledge, it is installed. Others point me to about:config spellcheck.dictionary

But that is not really offered to me when I am typing the name. So probably doesn't exist.

I'm trying ITMT, but would like some help please.

Я пытаюсь использовать сочетание клавиш ctrl+shift+c, что бы скопировать текст, но, вместо этого открывается devtools, я не могу использовать другое соччетание, пробовал отключить это в настройках devtools, но это не сработало, так же пытался выключить devtools, но не помогло

I'm trying to add the Dashlane extension to my laptop running Windows 10 or 11, and Firefox. But I cannot do this as my computer is in safe mode (troubleshoot mode?) How do I get out of this mode so I can add Dashlane extension. Thanks for your help;. Jonnie

Can we get a setting that disable the Quick Find feature or at least its keyboard shortcut.

It breaks keyboard shortcuts on multiple sites, as it is often used to select the search bar(Youtube, Github, ...)

Is it possible to access Settings>Accessibility>WebsiteContrast to quickly turn it on and off, by setting it as a bookmark (or quick access) rather than having to click settings and search for it each time?

Can you let me know if this is possible, or possibly add it in a future update if it is not?

I know that there are extensions that allow you to do this, but I am wary of using too many extensions because they can be a privacy vulnerability.

I cannot connect with my on-line banking site. When I try, I get the message "Bad Request--Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand. Size of a request header field exceeds server limit. I am able to access the site using another browser, so there cannot be a problem with the site itself. This situation has only existed since Firefox did an update. So, the problem must lie with Firefox. If it is not fixed, then I fear that I will have to discontinue using Firefox as my online browser. Please have someone from technical support contact me. [edited email from community support forum]

Copy & Paste stop working on my Firefox. How can I get it back? It does work on Chrome but I prefer to use Firefox. You can email me at [edited email from public community support forum] TIA, Barry

'I am posting this for a third time, because I am absolutely sure it is caused by the latest Firefox update.

I am typing this into Notepad and copy/pasting it to the text box on the site.

I am legally blind, and I am very dependant on the Windows Magnifier. Yesterday I took the latest Firefox update and after installing it, the Windows Magnifier will no longer follow the text cursor on web pages rendered in Firefox. It will follow typing in the address bar and the search bar on the task bar, but it will not on web pages rendered in Firefox.

I do not have this problem with Chrome or Librewolf.

I had made two earlier posts with no response from Support. I have been trying desperately to figure out what waws going on as I was moving links, bookmarks & passwords into Librewolf.

I tried to refresh Firefox. It didn't work. I tried safe mode. It didn't work. I even tried a different profile. It didn't work. I even tired uninstall & reinstall Firefox. It didn't work.

I even called the Microsoft Disability desk and had them check my magnifier settings, and they are fine, and yet even if I toggled them on & of--it still didn't work.

So finally, out of desperation, I did the dreaded System Restore.

I rolled it back to August 18th and sat and waited.

And though I had to relog into Firefox--it worked!

and i have been surfing happily all evening until I loaded the Spotify player page and it wouldn't play. Okay this was weird because I had been using it all week and suddenly it wouldn't play. I did a search, and apparently it wasn't just me. I opened the About Firefox and there it was--the dreaded update.

Believe me, I really didn't want to restaret the browser, but it was doomed to happen anyway.

And guess what--the Windows Magnifier view won't follow the text cursor in web pages rendered in Firefox--Again!

The Spotify player plays again but.....

If you don't believe me, open the Windows Magnifier, dock it on your task bar, and try to type into a web page. The view just goes cockeyed.

So yes, the update has a bug. And for all the people who are visually handicapped and use the Windows Magnifier we are cursing you right now and hoping for a quick fix before we all have to move to Chrome.

You sighted people have no idea how frustrating this is.

At least I'm glad it's not my PC.

But if it doesn't get fixed, I"m absolutely done with this browser. It is now unusable for people with visual disabilities.

Good luck.

Thank you. '
