Using hyprland, in one specific firefox profile, whenever I toggle PIP and resize it to be smaller than its original size or toggle float on the window, it just closes. Trying it in a different firefox profile, none of these issues are present.

This issue just started today.

I was attempting to watch a video on patreon, and normally I pop out the video so it is larger. This normally has no issues.

But today when I hit the button to pop it out, Firefox crashed.

Firefox then updated, so I thought maybe it was just because it needed to update.

I attempted this two more times with the same result. 

The first like I normally do where I start the video and then click the "pop out" button. Then the second time with the video paused. The minute I click the pop out option Firefox just crashes closed either way.

None of my saved passwords in my Mozilla account are showing up when I switch laptops and try to logon to various sites. Instead I have to manually enter the passwords for the sites every time even though the sites show that I have saved passwords for that site in my Mozilla account. When I type the password in a old or new site, Mozilla doesn't even ask if I want to save the password anymore.

I have searched these forums for "always on top" and the results were completely useless, so I assume no one has asked this question before, or the search engine is ineffective.. anyway, the question is:

When watching a video where you can click the right-side button to pop the video out to Picture-in-Picture mode, the video window that pops out is permanently set to Always On Top. It is often inconvenient for it to be Always On Top. I would like to be able to right-click on that video window and be able to select an option to disable Always On Top, or failing that, I would like to be able to disable this Always On Top via manually setting something in about:config. Can anyone recommend a solution that doesn't involve installing any third-party software to control Always on Top behavior? Thank you in advance.

Over the last 6 months, and increasing number of websites don't open on Firefox. I've noticed it most consistently on any of the wikipedia/wikimedia pages, but it's not just those. When I type in an address and press return, or click on a link, the browser just acts as if nothing has happened. There does not show me the loading symbole. If I ask it to open a new tab with the site, the address appears on the tab, but the page itself is just black. Other browsers have no problem loading the same sites. I am on a mac, and using a VPN. Restarting the browser doesn't help, though restarting the computer sometimes does.

Thank you,

Firefox will not longer close without also closing my pinned tabs which pretty much defeats the purpose of pinning tabs for later and makes it much harder to keep track of things. I didn't notice the first time and lost my pinned tabs that had been there for months, I immediately put them back but now everytime I try exiting firefox it informs me i'm about to close however many tabs are open + the pinned tabs. Does anyone know how to solve the problem/what might be causing it.

I am sorry if this is not the place to ask this question. I am new to web development and have been trying to solve this issue for days. I have an ESP32 acting as an http server. I have developed web pages which have separate html, css, and javascript files. These work as expected when delivered locally (i.e. I double click on the the files), however, when they are served by the ESP the style sheet is ignored and I get the message

The stylesheet (url) was not loaded because its MIME type, “text/html”, is not “text/css”.

from Firefox debugger. The stylesheet is ignore across all browsers (Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Edge), however the error is only shown in Firefox. Normally, of course, I would expect an issue on the ESP32 side, however, the non-Firefox browsers do load the stylesheet (even tough they ignore it) and I am able to verify that the stylesheet is identical to the one served locally.

Oddly, if I open a Firefox tab and load the page, switching to developer mode causes several requests for the stylesheet and the styles are then applied. Subsequent refreshes of the page causes the style to be lost and closing/opening developer mode has no effect.

Although I have disabled javascript to try fix this problem, when javascript is loaded I get a similar message (except the javascript is loaded).

I believe I specified the MIME type because I exactly coped several examples

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="utf-8"/> 
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1"/>
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="styles.css" />
<!--<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="name-of-stylesheet.css" />    -->
<!--    <script type="text/javascript" src="ESP-UI.js"></script> -->
    <title>My ESP32</title>
</head>


Thanks for the help!

Every time I try to view a pdf file on Firefox I can view the file but in the lower right 1/4 of the screen I get a graphic of a page with shaded areas representing lines with writing on them. There is a type of pen cursor moving along the line.

This happens with different pdfs - from the internet and from my saved files. This doesn't happen on another computer with Firefox.

I've deleted and redownloaded Firefox an number of times, also tried troubleshoot mode - no improvement. Virus scanned, restarted a number of times.

Pdfs work on edge and chrome and reader with no problem.

I have a screenshot.

Any Ideas? Thanks

Since a recent version of Firefox was installed the picture in picture control does not work. I have unchecked the option but It still shows in YouTube etc.

I know this can be disabled in about:config but I prefer not going there. I wonder if this will be corrected sometime, otherwise the setting option is pointless.

Another item: I have unchecked the search suggestions in settings but it makes no difference.

Input welcome.

When using the PiP feature is there a way to switch whether it pauses the video when closing the PiP player?

Often if i want the audio to continue but dont want the popout player there and if I press the close button it will just stop the audio. If I select the PiP window and use the shortcut CTRL + SHIFT + ] the audio will continue playing as I want it however this is inconvenient and requires using the keyboard, is there any way to change it so that closing the popout player doesn't stop the tab from playing audio?
