When I open Google Translate, large grey text labels appear next to the icons, obscuring what's beneath. For example beside the double arrow icon it says "swap_horiz," which covers up some of the menu items. I think this is a Firefox, and not a Google, problem because this happens only on my desktop (Win 10) and not on my laptop (also Win 10). It also doesn't happen on any other site. I'm sure some switch somewhere got thrown accidentally. Has anyone had this problem?

Hello, It seems that since Firefox updated to 86.0.1 64bit I can not longer play videos on FOX News. I do have uBlock Origin and Privacy Badger and I have used them for years. By trial and error of disabling each of my addons one by one to see which one could be the culprit I found that by turning off uBlock I am able to play Fox News videos. I kept Privacy Badger turned on and it blocks the advertisements and trackers and I can view Fox News videos with that. I would also like to add that I have not changed any settings in my Options. bold text Now I have noticed the same problem with Edge Chromium in viewing Fox News videos and I had to turn off uBlock and turn on Privacy Badger for that browser in order to see them on Edge. I have always used Firefox for years as my default browser. Does anyone else have this problem or do you have any info on whether Fox News has done something with there site to where you can no longer use Adblockers like UBlock. I have no problems with viewing videos on any other website i.e. YouTube. Thank you for your time in reading this and for any info.

Regards

I am using Firefox and have noticed that when I do a view page source I do not see the current page, but a cached copy. To view the page source I first have to go to options and delete data.

Here is how to reproduce. 1. Go to a website showing changing data 2. Right click and select view page source 3. Examine the page source to see that it shows an older copy of the data, not the current data 4. Go to options and search on the term 'cache' 5. Delete the cached data 6. Go back to view page source and try again 7. Now the page source is the current data seen in Firefox

I have a problem with YouTube looking in Firefox. When I go to any channel, the header of the channel is not displayed at all, together with its content, i.e. the name of the channel, banner, links, etc. I checked the code by examining the element and I found something like that

  1. header, #search-pva, #premium-yva, #feedmodule-PRO, #video-masthead, #watch-buy-urls, #sub-frame-error, #main-frame-error, #watch7-sidebar-ads, #feed-pyv-container, #shelf-pyv-container, #watch-branded-actions, #watch-channel-brand-div, #homepage-chrome-side-promo, #watch-channel-brand-div-text {
   display: none !important;

}

when I unchecked display none, I saw everything normally after refreshing the page as well. I restarted my browser and didn't see the header again. Someone knows how to fix it, because what if it is a bit disturbing and irritating when you can't see it. You can see everything normally in Chrome. I don't want to use Chrome because I don't like it and this browser sucks in my opinion. Thank you for your help on the screen below :)

I am not able to get onto my secure message center in my febblue.org (Blue Cross/Blue Shield insurance) page. I can log onto the home page, but the landing page for the secure message center hangs. The feature does work fine in other browsers such as Chrome. The URL for this, if this helps, is: https://custserv.fepblue.org/FIM/sps/FEPOCFED/saml20/logininitial?RequestBinding=HTTPPost&ResponseBinding=HTTPPost&Target=https://custserv.fepblue.org:443/fepesvc/inbox.do&NameIdFormat=email

Perhaps a bug in Firefox 86 and 87? That is when it became an issue.

In the website bugzilla.mozilla.org, I cannot create a new account. I go to the create account page, but it says I need to log in before I can view it. I don't think I can, since I need to create an account before I can log in to create an account, and it presumes that I have an account before I can create one.

Is this actually intended, or is this a bug? If this is something I need to report on bugzilla, it will be difficult to do so, as I do not have an account.

Double-Pasting Error in Gmail in FireFox, Cannot Replicate in Other Browsers?

First and foremost, screenshots/snippets are captured by the Windows 10 "Snip & Sketch" and "Snipping Tool" software. I checked the settings for both and there are no settings (toggled on or off) that would fix the issue when tested.

ISSUE: Essentially, once the image is captured and copied/pasted into a Gmail email (ex. composing a new message) ONLY in FireFox does the image paste twice. However, the same process does not replicate the issue in Gmail in other browsers. And I am also cognizant of key strokes aka possibly doing a Ctrl+V twice on accident; that did not occur.

Is this just a minor bug that can be fixed with a FireFox update? I already cleared cache and cookies, de-synced/re-synced FireFox, uninstalled/reinstalled FireFox, and restarted my device. Please advise.

When I go to https://www.sz-shop.de/ostern, FF tells me that there is a risk

"Warnung: Mögliches Sicherheitsrisiko erkannt ... Am wahrscheinlichsten wird das Problem durch die Website verursacht und Sie können nichts dagegen tun. Sie können den Website-Administrator über das Problem benachrichtigen."

That is what I did. I called that shop and told about that warning. The lady on the phone also went to the address, but she did NOT see that warning. She confirmed that her PC was OUTSIDE of sz-shop.de like mine.

So the problem is a potentially wrong warning? Or how can we explain that I see a warning and other people do not see it?
