some special characters that i distinctly remember being able to see before are now no longer showing up properly. i'm a fanatic about ancient/prehistoric scripts and was able to see the scripts on the Baybayin Wikipedia page, but i think a few updates ago made this no longer true.

i'm able to see things on other browsers and even in the right-click menu as i have the font needed to see everything installed onto my system (win 10, i dont have security updates enabled. the font is noto sans tagalog, and i've already reinstalled it twice). the setting to allow pages to use their own fonts doesn't seem to do anything, either.

confusingly this is not a problem on my macOS device, where the same page renders correctly without me needing to download any font (i mean, as far as i remember). i think this implies this has something to do with windows, but i'd like to ask in here first.

attached is a screenshot of the wikipedia page showing in firefox on windows 10, and the right-click window displaying the script correctly.

javascript contains the following code:

var txt = "<tr><td" if (SecIndent[i] > 0) txt+= " class='In" + SecIndent[i] + "'" txt+=' onclick("' +'go2('+ "'_" +i +"')"+ '")>' +SecNames[i] +'</td></tr>' alert(txt) // txt += ' onclick("go('+"_'><a href="#_'+i+'">'+SecNames[i]+'</a></td></tr>' document.write(txt); }

seems to be working right -alert displays: <tr><td onclick("go2('_3')")>Chapter 1 – The Number Tiles</td></tr>

when I inspect element it shows <td onclick("go2('_3')")="">Chapter 1 – The Number Tiles</td>

where did the extra =" come from? when I tried other browsers still problems but inspect element was different hopefully this isn't a Windows 10 problem, but very wierd if it is

Using the Firefox browser: Logging into MS365 via https://login.microsoftonline.com has recently caused the “Copilot homepage” (m365.cloud.microsoft) to freeze. There is no response to mouse clicks or keyboard input. The login name is displayed in the bottom left corner, but there is no reaction with information and options as usual. The “Show App” option above the login is missing. Entering the username, even in MFA input, works without errors; all users are logged in via Entra. Access via MS Edge works as before, as does Firefox.

Why can't I access my Microsoft account on Firefox for about 2 months, but I can easily sign on with MicrosoftEdge?

I have had an email account for the last 28+ years. (*.msn ) For several months, I have not been able to access my account directly on Firefox. I can access it on Microsoftedge. To log in, I enter my email address. I then enter my password. I have recently replaced an old password with a new password. Microsoft does not accept it directly. At first it (Microsoft login) asked me for the first 2 digits of my cell phone number, then a puzzle. Sometimes this works, sometimes not. More recently they have rejected any attempts because I have tried unsuccessfully too many times. That may be as few as 2 times. I have gone through several variations of solving this problem within Microsoft help. Each attempt ends at either going onto a loo[p or Micosoft asking for a code, pass key, or proof through another email I have. I have accumulated a list of codes, PIN numbers, all of which do nothing. I have been at this since 3 April.

For some reason there appears to be an issue between my gmail account and Mozilla/Firefox. When I delete an email, the email below it is also deleted, then I have to dig it out of the trash. It doesn't happen with every deletion, but almost all of them. It's been going on for a few weeks now and is most annoying. Any suggestions for how to cure this issue? Appreciate any help you can provide! Linda

Hi,

I’m facing an issue in Firefox where some icons on my website are not updating their color correctly.

I’m using SVG icons, and the color changes work fine in other browsers, but in Firefox they seem to stay fixed.

You can see an example here: https://yourwebsite.com

I’ve tried clearing cache and checking CSS (fill/color), but no change so far.

Is this a known issue with how Firefox handles SVG or could I be missing something in the implementation?

Thanks!

Suddenly—with no changes made in Firefox, no power failures, no anomalous occurrences, and with the latest version of Facebook—Facebook would not display reels when clicked on.

What came up was at first a briefly (maybe a second) displayed image, but rather than remaining, the image disappeared, leaving an all-black screen except for the usual icons normally there: in the upper left, the "X" for closing the window and the Facebook logo; in the upper right, the Facebook menu, messenger, notifications, and account icons; at the middle right, the up and down circled arrows (which function but which lead to more displays of only black as well); and lower-right center, with the vertical display of the thumbs-up emoji, comment, share, the three-dots more options icons.

Firefox 149.0.2 is installed on a Windows 11 computer less than a year old (which has displayed no anomalous or unusual behavior at all).

Clearing the Firefox cache and restarting Firefox have done no good. What is wrong here?

Thank you.

Probably the wrong topic, but I can't access two NY Times daily puzzles for the last couple of months after using them with this browser for more than a year before that on this pc and this browser.

I receive the message "Non-compliant action. The current operation is blocked by your IT administrator. Click 'OK' to continue." when going to https://www.nytimes.com/games/wordle/index.html. That URL works fine on Edge, but I like to keep all my personal activity on Firefox and use Edge for my consulting work with clients.

Similarly, but not quite the same, Connections (https://www.nytimes.com/games/connections?GAMES_connectionsRollout_1130=1_ConnectionsV2) displays non-HTML formatted text, see added image.

Working my way through all NYT puzzles, 2 give non-HTLM text while the rest give the "Non compliant action error".

I would appreciate your help.

Running on a Macbook with Tahoe OS. Certain websites will not display my responses to a checkmark box. Certain websites will not permit changing a checkbox default setting. Specific example: https://cards.barclaycardus.com/ has a checkbox with remember user name defaulted to a check. Attempts to click to remove the check do not work. Also, on certain websites when entering login information that is incorrect, the message indicating to correct the item(s) in red or highlighted does not display the incorrect items in a highlighted condition. In fact at the bottom of this page, the response box labeled Email me when someone answers the thread does not display a response when I click on it, even though the "response" is accepted.

Now the latest update solves the problem of autoplay on YouTube can something be done about viewing the whole site? Videos take forever to load or generally never load and when they do all it shows on the page is the video and nothing else.

I go to my YT history and the page will not load. YT at times says I am offline when in fact I am not because I am also at the same time,while waiting for YT to load, viewing articles and videos on Yahoo and MSN as well as other sites.

This has only started today, March 12th.
