Is there away to prevent the auto-unhide of the menu bar in full screen mode when the cursor moves to the top of the screen? I have searched for answers to this and found some old posts about creating a userChrome.css file but I couldn't get it to work.

Here's my use case. I access a remote desktop through Citrix for work. I use a browser via Citrix Lite instead of Citrix Workspace because the desktop will dynamically adjust to the window size when I don't need it in full screen which Citrix Workspace will not do. However, the auto-unhide feature of menu bar when the browser is in full screen mode also causes the desktop to dynamically adjust when it drops down and again when disappears. This forces me pause when trying to work because it happens often since I'm using a a large monitor with multiple applications open with tool bars on the top rows. I know that I can not hide the menu and address bar but don't want to lose the extra screen real-estate. I would much rather have a keyboard shortcut to reveal the menu bar or some other option.

I opened Firefox on one of my computers as usual today but the whole performance changed. Used to go to my home tab and select various news sites to see what was happening. First, when I scroll down the bookmarks, I would hit the "news" and click on it so all the sub items would stay in the scroll, but instead of that, it wanted to open every item as a new tab. When I finally started opening the various news outlets, it opened them in new tabs, it had always opened in the same tab. Then, I couldn't close the various tabs it had opened. I would go to the tab and hit the "X" but it didn't close the tab. I had to use a drop down menu to close a tab. And when in a site, I used the scroll button on the mouse, instead of scrolling, it made the page larger or smaller instead of going up or down. What could make such a change in behavior? I opened up the 'settings' on it and looked at 'tabs' and they were the same as the ones that are on this computer that works as expected. Both computers have it set to open all previous windows and tabs. Both have the same settings for 'tabs' and 'browsing'. I don't get it. Both are version 143.0.3 (64-bit) I have Ubuntu OS.

On some of my websites information is blocked. For example on my main bank site I can sign in to the site but all of my banking information is blocked so there is no account information. On my VA website I have a similar situation with information being blocked. for example I go to the messenger section and cannot see or write messages.

how do i block my location? Nothing seems to work. I want to search a site in another country but keep being directed to the site in the country I am in. I dont want to look at that site. I want the site in different country but keep being bounced to the current country site. I getting pissed

My problem is the following. The website of my favorite football club regularly embeds videos within their pages. Clicking of the video within the club webpage shows the video without leaving the webpage. Recently opening the club site with mozilla stopped enabling me to see the embedded videos. An example of what I see on my screen now when using mozilla is in the first image uploaded below - instead of showing the embedded video, all I see is a small red rectangle with a "play" button in it. If I press the play button, the video starts, but shows within the extremely small rectangle and I cannot watch it.

This is not so when I use Edge or Chrome, as shown on the second image uploaded below, showing the exact same webpage (the address is https://levski.bg/video/%f0%9f%94%b5-%d0%bb%d0%b5%d0%b2%d1%81%d0%ba%d0%b8-31-%d0%b1%d0%b5%d1%80%d0%be%d0%b5-%d0%b3%d0%be%d0%bb%d0%be%d0%b2%d0%b5-%d0%b5%d0%bc%d0%be%d1%86%d0%b8%d0%b8-%d1%80%d0%b5%d0%bf%d0%be/ ). The embedded video is clearly seen in its full size within the page, and when I click the play button it starts showing the video normally within the webpage without leaving the site and sending me to youtube, for example.

My question is, what is wrong and what can I do to start seeing the embedded videos normally again?

Thank you, Georgy Ganev

I usually have a lot of pages open on Firefox and the display in the dock gets packed, if you will. I would like to see an option in the settings to turn the dock display off, just for your program, Firefox. It would be nice to toggle this option. I've searched for about an hour trying for an option and a solution. Thanks for your good works. I'm on an early Mac Mini 15.7.1

Take care. Have fun. //... Joe [edited email from public community support forum]

In version 143 there is no rollup window option that allows a linux system to roll the window up out of the way. The icon is a caret located in the top right corner of the window.

Anybody else notice that when using the back arrow on some sites, it just won't stop back-arrowing? I mean, usually, when you have reached the very first site opened in the current tab, the back-arrow will grey-out and become non-functional. But some sites are allowed to embed an instruction which causes Firefox to just keep on back-arrowing indefinitely, without EVER greying-out the back-arrow; it just keeps on re-loading the same initial web page. The yelp.com website is a good example of this behavior. Firefox should prevent sites from embedding functional-override coding which causes the browser to behave abnormally like this. Another functional-override example are websites that, DESPITE having a global Firefox browser setting to NOT auto-fill fields, the site causes Firefox TO REMEMBER the data anyway, and then to re-display the data at the credentials step as a pull-down menu underneath the Username field and, more often, the 2FA field. Haven't seen any site yet override the no-auto-fill setting for the Password field, however...luckily.

Firefox has simply....gone from my PC. I have been using it for years, moved from device to device and have lots of history, favourites, browsing history etc etc...and many passwords stored within it.

I was using it just last night, but today, following a windows update it's just disappeared! When I re-downloaded and signed in none of my settings or passwords have reappeared...this is a bit of a disaster for me, please help!

I'm using Ubuntu 24 with the XFCE desktop. I'm installing the debs straight off packages.mozilla.org (currently 143.0.3).

Firefox's title bar, and window manager buttons do not have the same look and feel as the rest of my windows. And I have no idea where they're coming from.

They do change appearance in response to picking the different styles in Settings > Appearance, but the changes appear to be limited to colors only. The minimize, maximize and close buttons look differently than on all other windows, and they are more spread out than in, and the shade button is nowhere to be found.

I'm attaching two small images, the first one is the standard set of widgets all other windows have, and the second one is Firefox's odd duck. I could not find anything in settings. "Extensions And Themes" shows that "System theme" is enabled. Well, it's coming up a bit short...

I am unable to get Verizon to verify my account when I am using Mozilla Firefox. I can get Verizon to verify my account if I use Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge, but I would rather use Firefox. Can you help?

I am using version 143 for Linux and it is suppose to have improved fingerprinting protection. But when I go to https://coveryourtracks.eff.org i still see a result that says "your browser has a unique fingerprint"

Is there a parameter I should be enabling ?

When I use on line banking and I want to look at a check, I can not get Firefox to render a check image. Also I downloaded tickets to an event and FF would not render the Q-code on the tickets. I what to know what settings to change in order to do online banking. BTW it works in Chromium Browser, but I do not use it and have little knowledge about Chromium, I just have it on my laptop for troubleshooting.
