Firefox Community Forum

I have an Investors.com account and a feature they offer is a stock sector data table that shows recent performance and other information. When I try to open these tables they close immediately, but if I use my tablet with a different browser they will remain open. I believe this is a simple setting that I need to adjust, but I don't know enough to figure it out.

Password generated by the password manager is 100% numbers: no letters, uppercase letters, or symbols. Just "745848727839949". This is not a valid password. This number seems to be the same every time and is remembered even tho it hasn't been stored.

Hello,

how can i disable firefox usage hints like "Try tab groups for less clutter, more focus"?. It opens up if i open up a certain amount of tabs. Is there anything i can disable in about:config?

Thank you.

Fedora 42 x86_64, firefox 145.0

Using FontForge, I created a custom Unicode (NO 8-bit pi encoded) version of the Symbol typeface with a new font-family name.

One of the customizations, the serif versions of the "Registered Sign", "Copyright Sign", and "Trademark Sign" are available by the official Unicode codepoint. The sans-serif versions are available by the official Unicode codepoint *directly* followed by U+200B (Zero Width Space - ZWSP).

This is done with the OpenType contextual alternative feature (calt).

It works in the FontForge metrics test window and it works in Chromium and derivatives but it does not work in FireFox - either the Fedora 42 build or the generic x86_64 build from Mozilla.

I tried the CSS setting:

body { font-feature-settings: "calt" on; }

No dice. I believe that's the right CSS setting because if I change the "on" to "off" then it no longer works in chromium and derivatives, so that does seem to the be the CSS setting that controls whether or not the feature is enabled.

All my searches on the web seem to indicate the FireFox supports calt however all the examples I see are related to swashes which are enabled/disabled by a different CSS setting.

I did see some indication that some apps only allow calt for certain language scripts, typically Arabic and/or Greek and/or Latin and perhaps these legal glyphs aren't considered one of those scripts?

Does anyone know why the calt works elsewhere and not in FireFox? Yes, I tried without any extensions or plugins enabled.

The PW I am using to attempt to sync firefox to my new windows computer is in the active firefox that I currently use. I have checked it in my desktop version and also on my ipad and the PW in both are the same yet when i try to sync the new computer and put the PW in that is in both my desktop and iPad; I get msg it is wrong PW. So then I tried to get a new recovery code (can't find old one) it asks me for the PW and again; get msg it's wrong. How can it be wrong if it's the one in my current firefox that I am typing this on right now? Doesn't make any sense to me! How can the current PW in the active firefox account be incorrect when I try to sync my new computer? (I have double/tripled/quadrupled and even copied the current PW from the PW list in firefox!)

thx

I search but did not find any list of environment variables supported by Firefox. Is there such an official list, perhaps groupped by Firefox version, published somewhere?

I have recently encountered reproducible failures when attempting to download files or save pages to local storage. The target directory is located on a mounted NTFS file system with the options umask=007, user=root, and group=disk. My Firefox browser is running under a non-root user account that is a member of the disk group. However, I consistently receive the error message: “XXX could not be saved because the source file could not be read.”

I would greatly appreciate anyone's assistance in resolving this issue.

I am using Mozilla as my default web browswer in Unix environment. It is great... except for a particular behavior of the browser window. When I middle click (MB2) the frame of the window, it doesn't go to the background, like all my other windows. Intead it opens a new tab (when I click at the top of the window). This is very annoying becaue I use MB2 /go to background all th etime. Any idea how to change that behavior and make it consistent with my general unix preference? Here is how it looks: see attachment.

Thanks in advance.

Hi there I have the problem that my firefox can save any file or download on my other drives since they arent event show as an option. I did a little research and read that by default in linux for security reason was unable to, but asking in the official forum of my distro (cachyos), they can save thing in other drives with no problems.

So i wanted to know why i dont?, my firefox installation is native at installing the dristro and having all perimission but it cant see my drives except the one is installed to (and where my OS is).

The only thing different i actually do is the folder where my current user info is saved, i moved the files from my user but with the files i had from my old windows session to impor my saved sites, favorites, etc.

Can you help me to be able to save files or images on my other drives?, thank you for time.
