Firefox Support Forum

Hello,

I'm using Microsoft IME on Windows 10 to input Japanese character.

On Firefox when I input characters, it will display curly underline (please refer to the screenshot).

On Chrome, it doesn't display any curly underline.

Is it possible to change the settings so that Firefox doesn't display this curly underline?

Thanks

Just recently I was able to click on a notification and it would add a tab to Firefox and go to the URL in the popup. For some reason it stopped working. Any ideas on how to fix this?

In the SharePoint library Setting is the desktop App defined to open M365-files. Chrome, Edge and Opera, open the files in the desktop App. Not so Mozilla Firefox: with this browser, the files are opened in a Tab, instead of the desktop App. Why is that? How can I change this behaviour?

It did'nt change with marking "Ask, how files are opened or saved With kind regards, Christian

I want Firefox on my action (button press or keyboard shortcut) run shell script or program of my choice and giving it as parameter the url of the actual web page I'm seeing.

Is it even possible?

Hello, Fo years I've used native Firefox on my Ubuntu system (which is /usr/bin/firefox). Now I've switched to snap firefox, because it's the new way to use and update Firefox on Ubuntu systems. I used too an extension called Open with (https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/open-with/), to open shell scripts when I right clicked on a hypertext link to use it in the script shell. Then the script did its job with the url link received in parameter. I know it wasn't the goal of this extension, but It did the job I wanted. Now, in the snap firefox, I cannot do the same. It seems its because native messaging (https://developer.mozilla.org/fr/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/Native_messaging) doesn't allow permission to interact with others applications (fix me if I'm wrong). I test several extensions, but I didn't find one to do the same job, and I've not the skills to developp it. Si here's my question: is there a way to do execute this type of script (not JavaScript) doing a right click on a link? Thank you for your help.

My userChrome.css...

#main-window { border: 5px red solid !important; }

It's only half-working though as in first screenshot. I've tried messing about with padding & margins - to no avail.

The 2nd screenshot zooms in on bottom-left corner and shows a faint blue outline (shadow?).

Any suggestions on fixing the border?

Cheers.

I have multiple accounts for a particular site and have usernames and passwords saved in Firefox for all of them. I use one of those accounts most of the time and use the others occasionally for particular tasks. I would like Autofill to autofill that main account's information, but it defaults to autofilling one of the other accounts and I have to manually select the one I want from the dropdown before logging in. Is there a way to select which account information is autofilled, or some trick to get it to show the right account by default, like deleting and re-adding all the other accounts?

Hi Moziila, Whenever my Firefox browser updates, I lose extensions in my toolbar. They are placed in the puzzle shaped item in the toolbar. Is there a way to prevent that happening?

Thank you, Richard

Hello,

I can't seem to find a way to drag and drop gmail attachment from gmail to my computer. WWhat it does, instead of moving a file, it creates some preview url file.

Is there any way to be able to download the file by dragging it from gmail to my computer?

If you drag text onto a Firefox window, it interprets that text as a URL and goes to that page. This is a problem because the only time I drag and drop text onto a Firefox windows is a password from my password manager. If I slightly miss the text box, it interprets the password as a URL and tries to go to it. This (a) Does a DNS lookup of the password. As there usually won't be a valid extension, I expect this only gets as far as my router, but it's still not ideal. (b) The page I was on has now gone, replaced with the "Couldn't connect to server" page, so I need to start again. Usually this is just a login page, which isn't a massive issue, but if it's a registration page I lose all the data I'd entered on that page, and even if it is just a login page, some badly implemented sites can lose information if you step out of the workflow.
