When navigating in some pages, specially in google docs, the browser's URI fragment (the part after the #) changes frequently for each page/header/slide, and all of them are stored in the history.

That behavior adds lots of entries in the history and also hinders the usage of the search functionality of the address bar (as all the duplicates are shown instead of shown only one and other pages). I want to keep one entry per document, at least in specific pages like gdocs where the "fragment" doesn't add any useful information and each document can have lots of them.

Is there any way to configure that behavior, to not save every fragment in the history?

To reproduce the above behavior (the same behavior happens in other pages, not only gdocs):

- Open any gdocs document with several headers, or a gdocs presentation with several pages. - Navigate all the document/presentation, and check the history. - Close the document/presentation tab/window. - In a new window/tab, use the address bar to search the document/presentation by the document name: several entries for the same document/presentation are shown (and if they are lots of them, no other different entries with same words are shown in the address bar). - Check also the history: several entries of the same document/presentation are shown (it could be hundreds for long documents, and thousands after seen few documents).

Hello,

I've recently encountered a curious issue with my Firefox browser (Firefox version 102.0, Windows 11 Insider Preview 10.0.25145.1011). At seemingly random times it will freeze for between two and five minutes (roughly). UI elements become completely unresponsive and the cursor does not update when moving over the browser window. The window will not minimize. Yet, Windows Task Manager does not report the application as being unresponsive. While never a common problem, any freezes in the past would eventually cause the Windows Task Manager to identify it as unresponsive.

I have disabled "recommended performance settings" and hardware acceleration to no avail. Everything seems perfectly normal immediately before and after the freezes, and I've yet to identify how I can trigger them. I do not recall having made any changes to my browser before the freezes started occurring, though multiple Windows updates have taken place since then. If I'm too impatient to wait I will end the Firefox processes via Windows Task Manager and restart it so I can return to my tabs without having cookies deleted. I have 13 plugins mainly covering privacy/security concerns. Is there some sort of debug tool I can engage to see what's occupying Firefox while it's frozen? I've just found the Firefox Task Manager, and will see if it can offer any additional information during/after the freezes.

Thanks, Logan

Someone broke into my firefox. A ex friends through into my face stuff she could only know if she or someone broke into my firefox history.

I deleted firefox browser on both my android and pc's and am brokenhearted because I checked it and it brought back memories going back to 2011.

I want this person who did this for her. The broke into my google, laptop, pc. She's pretty and rediculuos manipulitieve.

I've tried tech guys, computer stores, web sites. They want me delete everything and start over. I don't want to loose decades of memories. I have a vpn and they keep breaking into my phone and pc's.

Is there a goverment contractor worker that does this stuff on the side? I want to find them. I bought Audibles and Kindles on dark web to see if anyone there can help, and will read for next 10 years if I have to in order to find them. Need suggestion.

Firefox is pissing me off. I want to disable SSL security checks long enough to do what needs doing. I'm working from a container so there's really no risk, just need the browser to do what I want not what 'It' wants.

Just now, as I was in the middle of something, Firefox popped up a usage tip about tabs. I find this disruptive. Is there a way to turn these off? If I want to know how to do something, I'll look in the help.

It's fine when you create a new feature to display a tab when I first launch after an upgrade, or to have the Help menu show a Latest Features item, but please don't interrupt my work with pop-ups.

For the moment, I don't see anything in Preferences about this. Is there an about:config setting I can add to suppress this feature?

I'm trying to downgrade a plugin, but this answer is out of date + archived: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1164888

I need some tips and tricks to generate an HTML email that will actually function with reasonable reliability without my having to wade through troubleshooting and correcting for the myriad problems that might and do cause it to fail because of issues with the Windows operating system, Thunderbird Add-ons and extensions, and Third Party apps that interact with shared system hardware/software resources in ways that can, and do cause failures.

The two parts to the question are: Given that I have the source code for a simple W3 compliant Web Page with internal links that renders properly in Firefox, what is the most efficient way to embed that functionality into a Thunderbird email? and

Is there any chance that it will render properly and function in the delivered email on email clients (including T-bird).

I've just spent three hours trying to find an answer stating the question as simple and as many different ways as I can.

I've struck out completely, the second strike being Mozilla support where the closest I came was a query that returned two options, one referring to doing something on the T-bird console; the other providing instructions for how to disable pop-ups in the browser, which appears to be one of the primary things that interferes with the functionality.

They were understandable, but haven't the referenced resources used them regularly in years, am not familiar with them. and am too damned old to have the patience to screw around with them.

Strike three was composing much longer request on this form and losing it. I don't remember how I did it, but when I was in the business with own web servers the standard practice was to design the web site so that the content of forms was persistent. That's ingrained, and my forgetter works to good.

Any tips or tricks will be appreciated.

I backup my Firefox profile on G. Drive (encrypted). It takes HOURS to copy the whole profile folder (bad internet). When I copy the updated folder into the old one, should I ignore the old files or overwrite them (and take hours in the process). There is a chance that my backup fails because there are too many old files that I ignored and left there?

the preference "browser.contentblocking.category" does still work although it isn't existing in the about:config settings anymore(was removed as it seems) but how and why does it still work?

When I reply to emails, either reply, or reply all, I prefer to see all the email addresses from the email header that the original email was sent to. This is the default on most email systems I've used. I think it was the default on Firefox until recently.

Now, when I do a reply, or reply all, the message now starts with the original email, without the email headers. I understand some people may prefer that, but I definitely don't like it. It can be useful to see who the original email had been sent to, especially if there are errors in that list of people, or the people included are fewer or more than the previous email.

Note, if I forward the email, the email does contain the email addresses from the original email header.

This behaviour caused me some real grief when I realised some people had made a mistake when sending me an email recently.

Is there a setting to adjust this?

my hardware is very outdated already and i wanna try if my firefox runs better without any hardware acceleration like running fully on software.

i don't think that just simply disabling the hardware acceleration in the settings disables the entire hardware acceleration because there are way more about:config preferences which are related to hardware acceleration.

I'm using UIAutomation to get the bounding rectagle of an input control. Here's my C++ code.

IUIAutomation* p_iui; ... IUIAutomationElement* p_fcs_element; while(TRUE) {

   Sleep(1000);
   p_iui->GetFocusedElement(&p_fcs_element);
   RECT r;
   p_fcs_element->get_CurrentBoundingRectangle(&r);
   _cprintf("Rect: %d,%d,%d,%d\n", r.left, r.top, r.right, r.bottom);

}

When I put focus on some input text area and move Firefox by drag&drop, the RECT r's data(left,top,right,bottom)does not change, unless I change the focus to another text area and back to the first one. Should I change some Firefox settings to make the location information up-to-date when get_CurrentBoundingRectangle every time?

Is there a way to ensure size & shape of page remains the same from session to session? I use my TV as a monitor and every time I open Firefox I have to manually reshape the browser to fit the screen. I'd love for it to come up the same each time.

Thanks, Richard
