(Note: this issue is probably the same issue as reported in 1439701 - Mouseover link tooltip url persistent through click and page load. While that user marked that issue as solved, their "resolution" makes fairly clear that the issue was never really solved.)

When hovering over a link, Firefox will typically show a tooltip at the bottom left with the link's address. Typically, this tooltip disappears when the mouse is no longer hovering over the link (whether because you moved the mouse or clicked the link). However, in some circumstances, the tooltip doesn't disappear when it should. Here's an example of how to reproduce the issue:

1. Go to YouTube 2. Search for anything. 3. Choose a result, and click on the thumbnail. (NOT on the title.)

Expected result: the tooltip showing the URL of the video disappears since the video is loading and the link you clicked no longer exists on the page.

Actual result: the tooltip persists. Once you hover over any other link on the page, behavior will return to normal.

Recently everytime I open a page in Firefox I get the message "Open the be link?" "You'll need to choose an application. Before this I got another dialogue box asking me to open the System Handler, but I managed to get rid of that to be left with this new dialogue box. Very frustrating as it interrupts the use of Firefox. Chris

The recent changes to the right-click menu on YouTube are a backward step. The menu is now cluttered with options I don't use, while the useful “Open in New Window” option has disappeared. I regularly use this function and having to use Shift+click instead is unnecessarily inconvenient. Please consider restoring “Open in New Window” to the context menu. Not every new feature is an improvement, and sometimes the simple, familiar options are the ones users actually want.

About every 1/2 hour I get this popup asking how to open a spotify link, with spotify or Firefox. see image that's great if I've actually clicked on a spotify link, but I haven't clicked on any links. So it's pretty annoying I'm fully updated on 152.0.3 (64 bit) window 11 up to date any ideas how to stop this?

I don't know, if it's an eBay's problem, or Firefox's - some, not all, items for sale, on eBay, when displaying the individual "For Sale" page with hot links, like "Add to Watchlist", "Buy it Now", etc. are not hot, and cannot be used. Sometimes, if I hit "refresh" one, or more times, those links become hot, sometimes, not. If an eBay problem, please let me know. If a browser problem, please fix the bug!

Hello: Suddenly when I go to click on a hyperlink in the body of an email, nothing happens. (I might see the pinwheel for a few seconds, but that vanishes and nothing is opened).

I am using: Firefox 152.0.5 (64-bit) Windows 10 Roadrunner email through Spectrum

Is this a Firefox issue or an email issue? Thanks in advance for any help!

The Russian language is not listed in the "To" part when I want to translate a page. Although it IS listed if the page is in Russian, so it suggests to translate from Russian to some other language. The language is installed in settings.

When i search for something on google the videos are all redirected to Yandex

I provided a screenshot.

The links are supposed to be YouTube but instead it's Yandex

Please help me fix this if possible.

First, is there a list of commandline options?

Second, I would like to be able to start Firefox with a specified URL from a batch file -or- a .net program. Then, either close FF -or- switch to a different URL. is this possible?
