Hi,
I created a website with a pretty simple css in the body of the page. I have a background image, but its colors are too dominant, so I also added a background color property to make the background more "pale". This approach worked perfectly in Chrome and I am 99% sure that I also tested this back then in Firefox and it worked as expected.
Now, only a white background is displayed in Firefox (Chrome works perfectly), which is interesting, because nor the image nor the set colour is white (well... the colour is white, but it is semi transparent). Did I miss something or is this an accidentally added bug in Firefox?
For your reference I attach a minimal working (in Chrome the paler background is displayed properly, in Firefox white page) example (note: change image url to whatever):
html:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css">
</head>
<body>
<script src="script.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
css:
body{
height: 100vh;
width: 100vw;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
display: flex;
margin: 0;
flex-direction: column;
background-image: url(./resources/splash.jpg);
background-position: center;
background-size: cover;
background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.1);
background-blend-mode:color;
}
I appreciate the help, Mark

Hi I've no idea which section this should go.. I'm having an issue when a youtube channel im following sets a live. When I get the card on the desktop for the 30 min timer, I'll click it.. sometimes it will open in a new tab (usually the card just disappears), that's another problem.. Anyway.. If I switch to the new tab at the time the live should have started, it shows the counter reset to 30 minutes.. if I F5 the page it will load the live.. Is there a way to auto start the live when the counter hits zero?
Hope that wasn't as clear as mud...
Thanks

I updated FF per regular basis. Now I can't log into Google because my phone is no longer an option. A tablet is an option but it's physically inaccessible. All I did was click update and restart. Nothing unusual about that. My phone can't access Google accounts either. I'm not the most tech savvy and so I have no clues how to remedy this situation.

The most recent update, has caused my firefox to not work properly. Firstly i noticed that it reset all my extensions and themes and now i have noticed that it has affected some sites i was storing data on, for example, i use a site which keeps a track of all the camos i have achieved for Call of Duty MW3. This has now been reset. These can all be redone, but it is something i shouldn't have to do, with an update, as it has never happened before with a firefox update. The way it has been going, i am sure i will find more errors with firefox. Hopefully something can be done, maybe not in this instance but in future "Improvements", as it is not a good user experience!

I have the latest version of Firefox (124.0.1) that I'm using on macOS (14.4). The problem is that the whole top section of the browser (tab bar, location bar, and bookmarks bar) is dimmed out a lot of the time. Including when the browser has desktop focus. This, as you might imagine, is very annoying.
Don't know what's changed, I haven't done anything to Firefox that would make this happen. Wondering if this is a bug in the latest version that will be fixed, or if I need to pursue this. My plan would be to log out of my Mozilla account on the browser, reset all the settings, then log back into my Mozilla account in the hopes that this is something that won't survive that process; i.e. not saved in my saved settings.
I'm about at the point of stopping use of Firefox, which I really don't want to do, if I can't fix this due to eyestrain from squinting at dimmed tabs, etc. If this is a release-related problem, I can put up with it until it's fixed.
I am not able to access any website thru Firefox

You can ignore the rest of my questions if you have no time for this.
Hint: Seeing as most software search functions are highly inadequate, I can only expect that AI will slow the workings of all software-operated system to a crawl or to a screeching halt. I see such an obvious lack of willingness to make software work for most people, instead of for the few geniuses who think everything goes without saying, that I have no confidence in software people anymore.
Software was once a promise, 40 or 50 years ago. Now it more and more becomes a promise unfulfilled. And nobody wants to do anything about it. It's not even recognized as a problem. Sadly, this happens in Community operated software like Mozilla just like in the big for profit Apple, Google, Microsoft, etc enterprises. I am trying to be as kind as possible in this.
Extra credit:
4) Why does the search term "Version" produce zero result in Firefox "Settings"? Seems like a very, very common term.
5) I am pretty sure that "Sharing Trouble-shooting Information" will not help you with answering my questions. How much do you want to bet on that?
6) Why can't search software answer a question with another question, asking intelligently for more detail
in order to decipher what the initial question might require to be answerable?

I am facing an issue with my Firefox.
This most commonly occurs with video playback webapps like YouTube Shorts. Intermittently, but often enough to be incredibly annoying!!) videos will stick while audio plays in the background. This does not always happen, but once it starts there seems to be some sort of cooling off period before things work again.
Reddit video player never works, seeming to silently crash - never showing the play button or video controls overlay.
I have had miscellenious other issue with other website that include forms to fill out and navigate where the elements like "next" or "submit" are completely unresponsive.
Strangely, the same video/page will always work on a Private browser window. I appreciate that these windows don't have extensions active, but I have activated every extension in private browsing and it still works.
The only extensions I have are:
I have no idea what it is about my "normal" browser which is broken, and why things are fine in the private window, but this is immensely frustrating.
I really don't want to have to change to another browser (Chrome... ew...) but I need this fixed if I am to continue.
