Suddenly today my browser had switched any current tab to the bottom of my window, but it also only lets me see one at a time..which means I can't see multiple tabs open unless I close the current one. My tab bar is gone entirely and was up-top as it's always been, just under the URL box.

I didn't hit any key combos that I know of that would cause this, and I can't seem to find anyone else with the same problem when I search for a solution. Does anyone know what I can do to fix this?? It's very odd and annoying, I've never had it happen before now..

I took a screen-shot of the problem, showing what happens when I open a site or any tab:

Thank you very much for taking a look and any help with this strange issue,

-Chris

Should LastPass still be recommended, or even listed?

Lastpass has had major data breaches in 2011, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2019, and two in 2022.

Today I got a recommendation to install LastPass. I was a bit surprised. LP (logmein, gotomypc) has a history of databreaches. I found reports in 2011, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2019, 2021, and two in 2022.

People without a lock on the door know they have no security. Putting on a lock that is not effective only gives people a false sense of security and may even increase the threat.

I love many of the add-ons. I know I can't rely on anyone to make sure they are all secure, but I hope such well-publicized problems will result in a review.

The billions lost and hundreds of hours spent by people each year with passwords in our fight with hackers is a true drain and a danger. Password programs have been the only way for individuals to survive. Their standards for security must be even higher than others. LastPass has not met the standard for a high level of security...or even a low level.]

LastPass has one reason for existing--keeping our passwords safe and secure. In the light of their failure, it's time to stop recommending them. It undermines the credibility of Mozilla and Firefox.

Firefox does not display an escape character that Google Chrome does on Github. This character is used frequently as a delimiter in Source Engine games, so it being hidden can cause some issues in identifying where 1 parameter ends and the next begins.

Example Link

Chrome Screenshot (how it should look): https://user-media-prod-cdn.itsre-sumo.mozilla.net/uploads/images/2022-12-19-15-02-25-46f521.png

Firefox Screenshot (how it actually looks): https://user-media-prod-cdn.itsre-sumo.mozilla.net/uploads/images/2022-12-19-15-03-04-395f25.png

In addition to this, when viewing the raw file on Github, the character correctly displays on Firefox as well, showing that the character being hidden is a bug: https://user-media-prod-cdn.itsre-sumo.mozilla.net/uploads/images/2022-12-19-15-05-40-1ac8f7.png

On Firefox, I have a folder of bookmarks named "Test" on my Bookmarks Toolbar. The folder holds 10 bookmarks at this time (number will be variable).

How can I use VBA to access and open the bookmarks in the Test folder?

I am able to open Firefox with the VBA code, but I cannot find how to get to the Test folder in the bookmarks.

Can you suggest possible code to get me to these bookmarks?

Thank you in advance.

Previously when my computer would crash, Opening Firefox would give an option to restore the pages (there would be a button I could push). I counted on this feature of Firefox to be able to restore my session and did it for months.

Lately (the last 3 times my computer has crashed) this option has not appeared and trying to locate and retrieve my history has not been easy or possible. I thought I set my computer to always restore and it is not working. How can I be certain that when my computer crashes that I will be able to restore my webpages?

Hi Firefox-Team,

I am writing a sidescroller game with Visual Studio Code using javascript canvas. The source for the "player" is a .webm video file with transparencies. The video is 13 seconds long, i want the video at the start to play the first 10 seconds and then loop from second 3 to 10 indefinately (until key is presst but this does not matter here) the issue is as follows and it seems to be a Firefox issue:

The Video plays to the 10 seconds and jumps back to second 3 and loops BUT each time the loops starts over there is a flickering / empty frames before the loop starts. This does not happen in edge or chrome.

any suggestions? or research on this topic? any plans on fixing this or can I open a ticket?

I am looking forward to your reply. regards Konrad Mostert

I am mainly using firefox (108 at this time) in Linux Mint and I have sync setup with some others systems (even older linux distribs with icewease and windows). I have a lot of trouble with certain sites when my profile '~/.mozilla/firefox' is loaded and my sync account is connected or not. (seems to be related to javascript or similar - some wait circles never stop and nothing is displayed) I assume I have something corrupted in the profile. If move .mozilla/firefox profile and starts from scratch those websites are working good.

But I have a lot of bookmarks and does not want to restart from scratch. I already did that one year ago and it seems it when I restore sync when the problems arise.

Any idea?
