Firefox Support Forum

Hey!

The UK Met Office (UKMO) has a General Aviation (GA) service where they publish weather charts and such: https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/services/transport/aviation/regulated/aviation-briefing-service-guidance It's a free service, anyone can create an account.

The login page, however, has a slightly odd way of collecting the username and password: https://logon.metoffice.gov.uk/Login?goto=http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/premium/myservices/

On that page, there are two <form>s, each containing an <input> element, one for the username and one for the password. The login button is just some javascript which fills in a third, hidden form and POSTs it. Once I have logged in and Firefox has offered to save the password for me (I have to tell it my username because the forms confuse this step too), it never manages to complete both forms. It only autocompletes the password.

Is it possible for Firefox to learn how to cope with this form? I suspect convincing UKMO to fix their website is unlikely, and they're probably not the only offender...

Dear Firefox friends, I am using the up-to-date version of Firefox. How can I prevent the search to occur on the URL bar? I want to use the URL bar only for typing the URL addresses but not for search or googling. It is annoying function and if I want to do so I will use Chrome. Thank you for your kind help and advice.

we are trying to print a form from a govt web-sight and it will not print correctly. missing information. From an older computer that has not been updated it works but from new computer with updates it prints partial information. Can you help please

How can I differentiate the top three bars of the browser window. If they are all light gray and I have two or three windows open, it is easy to click the wrong area.

On 6-2-2021 the Firefox /browser was automatically updated (errgh!). Now, my tabs are all gone and the History is empty. They were not merely recreational or random. Please help. Thank you in advance!

I think this happens routinely. Can the Mozilla people prevent the problem in the first place? How can I tell the angst they cause their users? I see others begging for help with this problem.

Hello there,

So, my issue is that some websites, only on Firefox, are logging me out as soon as I enter my mail + PW.

Those are the right ones for sure, and I tried in Troubleshoot mode to see if the issue persists, and it does.

Hence my request here, did someone encounter the same problem and managed to fix it? If you have any idea about what's worth trying, I'm all ears.

return the address bar to center of screen. as a senior don't need something smaller and up near top of screen. should of ask before changes were made on 89 update.

Hi Team,

I have a dynamic web URL like test/something, when i visit the webpage for the first time using http://test/something it will be navigated to the particular domain page as expected. But if i try to visit again the same domain address like test/someotherurl it must be auto suggested and recognized as a web URL (http://test/someotherurl) rather taking me/suggesting for a google search when i click enter.  Also it is not shown anywhere.  All other browsers and older versions (78) of firefox was showing this. I request you to kindly suggest me a way to fix this.

Attached a screenshot for the scenario. You can see only search with google suggestion is there. previously i visited http://test/someurl from the same browser. So here every time i need to type http in front of a url.

Hello.

My home page is Google's search pane. However, when I begin to type in my search string, FF throws me up to the address line.

How can I stop FF from moving my search string from the Google search pane (middle of page) up to the address bar?

Many thanks,

Mark

I have had a firefox account for over twenty years, now I cannot get in contact with mozilla AT ALL, all because someone decided I had used the wrong login. I cannot login because YOU do NOT recognise my password. You should leave well alone. When something goes wrong, then **I** will contact you like I am trying to do now. I have just read the blurb on the rigth-hand side of this page. It states "Our Community is here to help Kindness is at the heart of our community. Our volunteers are happy to share their time and Firefox knowledge with you. But, I saw the message that I had to login. But no explanation as to HOW I am to do this when I cannot login to my account?"

Ive been using the Inspector as usual and all of a sudden i get this black screen going on when i hover over the Insepctor, it worked before and now it happens every time i try it.

ive already tried to reinstall firefox but it just doenst seem to work.

My FF and my wife's FF has been updated on 2 laptops (V. 89.0 64-Bit), introducing the new themes. Now when I modify my theme, the other laptop takes over the same theme automomously. It seems to be coupled somehow - how can this be?

При вводе в окно поиска на домашней странице не отображается введенная информация и некорректно выполняется поиск информации. В место поиска отображается бесполезная информация и в место открытия поиска информации открывается рандомный сайт.

The new version 89.0.1 forces Google to search in the address bar. I dont like it. I cant read it. The results are not what I'm looking for. I want to retain old Home and ditto new Tabs with Google and Often-used 'favorites'. I cant disable it for Home or new tabs and I wish to keep my old home screen as it was and tuned to my taste.

Why the change without options to keep?

thanx

How can I turn off the search from the address bar? I have an old FIREFOX HOME Page with Google search bar the middle of the page. I went to type a search in and there were no words being typed; instead, the cursor auto jumped to the address bar and typed the search there. I don't want that! I don't like that! Can it be stopped? Firefox 89.0.1 (64-bit), 06/18/2021

Please help.

Even since I updated Firefox to 89.0.1, I'm getting these floating black boxes with date and time on all Facebook posts. Why? Where did they come from? How do I get rid of them, as they are blocking my reading of others posts.

On Windowws10, I am at version 89.0. I think that's the version that introduced this problem for me. If I open a new window, it is a duplicate of whatever window I was in before. That is, the new window has all the tabs the other window did. So, File-New Window copies whatever tabs are on the current window I am on. I've never seen this before. How can I make FF return to its normal behavior of giving me a window with nothing but a start window on it? Maybe I should go back several versions because recent changes like this and the negative effect a new release a few months ago had on default screen colors, have made my use of FF harder. Thanks.
