After version 149 update, search returns blank page on yahoo

Default homepage is yahoo. Since the update to version 149, if I do a search from yahoo, the new tab that opens with the search result is blank most of the time. I have to click reload for the search results to show up.

Is anybody else having that problem? Seems to be yahoo search specific but not 100% sure.

Hello, I'm having the same issue on all 3 desktops that FF auto updated. As well as the update changed ALL my color schemes. Very frustrating for someone visually impaird.

Hi, I have the same issue on every laptop that is running FF. The version is 149.0.

More info: After entering search terms and hitting enter my screen is blank but a "new tab" opens. I then delete that tab, my screen goes back to hpmepage (with the search terms still there) I hit enter and I then get the search results screen. I believe in older versions there was an option to select where search results appear. NOT with this version however.

I'm having the same problem too. Very frustrating to have to keep hitting the search 2 & 3 times before it will work. Tried all the fixes I could find online & nothing seems to work.

Hi, This is a bug/issue with version 149.

I found 3 bug reports on Bugzilla.mozilla.org

Bug 2030771 - https://uk.yahoo.com/ search goes to blank page instead of results on first attempt Bug 2031100 - cannot use search.yahoo.com for home screen Bug 2032519 - Firefox v149.0.2 -> go to yahoo.com, type anything in the search bar, hit enter, a new tab opens up instead of it performing a search

So there is hope that this bug/issue will be fixed.
