Transient issue where the top of the page overlaps with the task bar (whatever it's called on the iPad) so the plus sign for new tab is under the iPad's battery indicator. Can't close tabs. Seems to happen when reopening the iPad, usually corrects after a few times of switching apps, but very inconsistent. Deleted and reinstalled app, but problem continues. Others have reported the issue.

Unloading tabs

Why won't some tabs unload? For most of my tabs, "unload" isn't an option on the menu, while for a few it is.

With FF 140.0 on both WIn10 and WIn11, new tabs opened automatically then closed after less than a second. Initially I thought this was due to malware, but on inspecting the History, I found the source of this annoying behavior:

// SidebarUtil.tab.js

// This is just a placeholder file to be loaded in a temporary tab to check if a sidebar is open and how wide it is.

Is there a way to STOP this sidebar checking with its tab opening/closing without disabling Java entirely ? Is this annoying behavior really necessary in FF ?

On my previous windows 10 computer, when I clicked on a link in an e-mail it would bring up a new page. Under the new version of firefox for windows 11 I can't figure out how to set it to let me do this.

I was trying to log into my netgear account and I needed to reset my password so it sent me a code to do so. After it sent the code when I click on my e-mail it takes me out of the netgear page where I am supposed to input the code?

Appreciate any help. Brian

Feature Request: Tab Groups in Firefox for iOS

Please add native Tab Groups to Firefox on iOS. Organizing tabs by project, context, or mood would streamline mobile browsing. Ideally, they’d support custom names and sync across devices for a cohesive experience.

I've used the community here and I get 4 year old answers, some of which do not fir the current settings lists, those do not help. I have tried everything and the only thing that works is to force the new tab by right clicking and forcing open in new tab.

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1248171

I saw bunch of threads which suggest to enable "ctrl+tab cycles through tabs in recently used order". It does what I need, but in previous versions I used to press only ctrl+tab. While I was holding ctrl I could iterate over tabs via tab key. After releasing ctrl selected tab was chosen

It differs with current behavior where you press ctrl+tab and after releasing all keys pop up with tabs is still be viewed and you need manual action with space/enter/mouse click to open selected tab

Is there any way to use only ctrl+tab without any manual actions required like it was back in the days where after releasing the control key selected tab is opened?

After the latest update, when I move a tab to the start of the line, it shrinks down to something unreadable. Before, it stayed the same size, with tabs all being the same size as each other, that size being dependent on how many tabs were open ONLY. How do I turn off this "Feature" ? I liked it the old way. I don't even know exactly what to look up to try to fix it.

I also hated tab groups, with my tabs suddenly moving around on me. I hate having to do research and maintenance every time I get an update. If this keeps happening, I may just stop updating or go to Chrome or something.

I love the feature of always opening tabs in a private window. One thing that was critical to my workflow was being able to convert a private tab to a regular one. In recent version I see that the button to do this is no longer where it used to be.

Does this functionality still exist and I'm just missing where it is now positioned?

The page https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/tab-context-menu could be ameliorated by indicating the potential equivalents. eg : CTL+t is equivalent to "New Tab" option (should this be exact). Regards. Cap
