1. Enable the search box to the right side of URL box in browser UI.
2. Open new tab (empty URL box).
3. Press TAB.
4. The search engine SELECTOR becomes highlighted, instead of the search INPUT.
5. Web application software developer is blocked from typing search query right away.
6. Must press ANOTHER TAB.
7. This breaks the workflow. It never used to do this, you could type immediately after tabbing ONCE.
8. Search is disabled in URL box to facilitate local domain resolution/error and NOT trigger fallback searching.

Please revert the behaviour to normal, and make the single TAB operation focus on the search INPUT.

I have just started to receive this message when I try to connect to the Air France website:

I find the new split view feature to be great, however I do find some basic keyboard shortcuts missing.

Things like: Focusing the other view Closing a view Splitting

Would be great to have these basic ones.

The Firefox default behaviour to reload a page for view-source even when it is already in memory is unnecessary and causes many difficulties when tracking CGI bugs.

This unnecessary reloading can be turned off by setting accessibility.blockautorefresh to true.

However, fixing these stupid page reloads this way introduces another hyper-annoying behaviour: then Firefox blocks redirects.

So this accessibility setting is bad in both possible settings. Is there a possibility to prevent reloading pages for view-source while still allowing redirects?

I have dark mode set as a theme and a dark reader extension enabled. As of yesterday, when I open a PDF it always displayed with white text and a black background. I have vision issues and need my PDF'S to be able to easily read.

Hi,

I am testing my website https://www.nextwebi.com

for accessibility and usability in Mozilla Firefox.

While checking, I noticed a few issues:

Keyboard navigation is not working smoothly (Tab key skips some sections) Screen readers are not properly identifying certain buttons and links Focus indicators are not clearly visible on interactive elements

I want to improve the accessibility of my website to ensure it works well for all users, including those using assistive technologies.

Are there any Firefox-specific tools or developer options to debug accessibility issues? Also, what are the best practices to fix ARIA roles and improve navigation?

Thanks for your help.

After moving to a new laptop my Mozilla appearance changed drastically such that often the text is invisible (sometimes clicking on "select all" is a sub-optimal workaround".) Some images are blank spaces. I've tried working with "Website Appearance" in the settings to no avail. Thanks for your help!

I have a Mac Pro laptop. Firefox has been my default browser. I never had problems accessing websites before, but now, suddenly, I get a rejection notice that prevents me from using certain websites and even links in emails. I am 74 years old and not technically mobile or able to figure out how to correct the rejection notices I receive. You have no phone number or other way to reach you. I have looked and tried to find where the problem may be but I have been unsuccessful. I have no idea if it is an accessibility problem or a connectivity problem . As well, the fonts on any instructions you provide are almost impossible to read as they were written for midget eyes. I would be grateful if you could assist me and send many thanks.

Not sure but I read that windows 10 has reached the end of support in oct. 2025. I have no idea what book marks I had because My friend put them in for me. I do not know why firefox or windows had the rights to chage my computer and I do not have the funds to buy a new windows 11 computer. So bottom line what can I do to fix this issue

I use a Lenovo desktop computer that I have used along with the Firefox browser for about 3 years and never had any problems until now. For the past two days it takes up to a couple of minutes to for the Firefox browser to open a page. While the page is loading, I get at the bottom right corner of the screen "performing a TLS handshake." I vaguely understand this terminology but am not an expert on the subject. This "handshake" repeatedly occurs with all sites that I open daily with the Firefox browser. The pages usually open within a couple of seconds. Now it takes minutes and sometimes doesn't open at all. I have difficulty opening even the Firefox home page and when it finally opens, it is incomplete? Do you have any suggestions that might help me?

I must add that the internet connection from my provider, Eastlink, located in Nova Scotia, Canada, is by Ookla tests very slow, ranging from 40 to 55bps instead of the regular150bps or higher. I don't know if the problem is with my desktop or with the provider and the provider has not responded to my telephone request with any information that explain where is the source of the slow internet speed problem.
