What error messages do you see in the Web Console (Firefox/Tools > Web Developer;Ctrl+Shift+K) about this issue?

It looks like other people are having trouble with Mootools, it is possible that it needs to be updated to work with the most recent version of Firefox.

It seems that the problem is with cyrilic url (http://сабор.срб). Here is what developer console says:

[06:47:51.515] URIError: Domain contained invalid characters. @ http://ajax.cloudflare.com/cdn-cgi/nexp/abv=616370820/cloudflare.min.js:3 [06:47:51.515] "Escaping unescaped character \x441 from "http://сабор.срб""

[06:47:51.515] "Invalid characters found in domain name: %D1%81%D0%B0%D0%B1%D0%BE%D1%80.%D1%81%D1%80%D0%B1" --

When I try to add a picture (using mootools) it hangs:

[07:00:40.722] GET http://сабор.срб/externals/fancyupload/Swiff.Uploader.swf?noCache=1383026440585 [HTTP/1.1 200 OK 892ms]

[07:00:41.800] GET http://сабор.срб/none [HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found 1354ms]

[07:00:42.006] GET http://сабор.срб/%D1%81%D0%B0%D0%B1%D0%BE%D1%80%D1%86%D0%B8/home [HTTP/1.1 200 OK 2493ms]

It is not а problem with a FF version because it worked before we changed our site url a month ago. (from saborsrba.com to сабор.срб) and it is still working when I change it back!

Thank you.

It looks like the issue is caused by an escaped character in your code. This is not my area of expertise, but I found this article [which I hope helps]:

Looks that the URI gets encoded and Firefox doesn't support this for the domain part, only for an appended path.

decodeURI("%D1%81%D0%B0%D0%B1%D0%BE%D1%80.%D1%81%D1%80%D0%B1"); -> "сабор.срб"

When is Firefox going to support encoding of the domain part? Is it too hard to do, because it is really important to us.
