I don't know if its an issue with the theme or Firefox itself (I think it's Firefox because it already happened on previous versions), but when I open certain number of tabs, or a tab with certain characteristics that I don't know, the whole row of tabs increases its height. And it annoys me. Thanks beforehand!

Not sure if this is from you or not, but I keep getting a pop up ad every 30 seconds if not less hitting me up on their program to stop ads and pop ups. In other words in order to get this ad off my back, I am obligated to purchase this program?? Then when I finely clicked on the dam link it offers another link to down load the program for free. Going through the process in hopes to get this to stop I get directed to another page asking for money. No down load. What is it or who is it that writes this madness up and puts it out there to plague everyone until they put money on the table? and you can never talk to a real live flesh and blood person. Just about the time you think it can't get any more insane it does.

Good morning! I am from Poland and I know very little English. Therefore, I will translate my problem through Google translator. I log in to my bank using a masked password. Firefox keeps showing me a balloon with a suggestion to create its password and remember it. Is it possible to somehow disable this option on this particular page, because it bothers me a lot, instead of helping me.

Hello Community; Hope someone can help. Other day my Mac Mini (I'm using an LG monitor as the computer screen) automatially downloaded the latest BIG SUR update (11.5.1)...since that day all my FIREFOX 91 (64 bit) pages are displaying incorrectly!! It almost looks like I'm in SAFE MODE--but I'm not. Gmail has all these little highlighted squares around all links and folders and many colors on my web pages aren't even displaying! (The pages are white!). I have tried a myriad of solutions...everything from clearing the cache to yada yada yada...and STILL FIREFOX is "acting out" so badly that I had to bite the bullet and switch to using SAFARI! Does anyone else have this current experience? Today is 8-16-21...this is a current problem. If you have any solutions please I would love to hear them! Thank you Steven Orr storr54@gmail.com

Since last weekend or thereabouts (17 July 2021) my Firefox on the 3 devices/platforms I use (see title) is not connecting to a specific website. Edge connects and is usable.

There is no error message, the screen in the tab remains blank and the activity indicator stops after a few seconds.

The website address is https://colony.litopia.com . The website is functioning and I have just used it, loaded images etc using Edge - I am a writer and use it every day, usually LOL.

All the other sites I use are ok, as is the main domain https://litopia.com . The hyperlink from the parent to the subdomain also hangs in the same way. I have spokent to other users of the site and they say it is ok, although it is noted as usually being a very slow site.

I have tried connection via cellphone router and wired broadband from different physical locations. Firefox troubleshooting not reporting any errors.

I use adblock on Win10 and Linux and have tried disabling that. FB container only on win 10. All platforms are up to date with Firefox. 90.0.2. I believe the issue arose when I went to 90.0

I haven't shared my data because the devices are disparate.

Comments appreciated, thanks.

I cannot get my local town's news website to display in Firefox? The website address is https://www.rochdaleonline.co.uk

Nor can I get their sister website https://www.oldham-chronicle.co.uk to display either?

All I get it completely blank page.

Is it an issue with the website or a Firefox issue? This has only happened in the last week.

Thanks in anticipation.

I've noticed that every now and then I come across a website that doesn't function properly. For instance, right now when I try to browse https://www.parts-express.com/ the page will load, but when I try to view things by clicking on the menu, it will stay on the same page. I've had to use another browser to search this site.

Another thing I've come across is paying for things. A few times already I've tried to make a purchase and it would not go through. I called one of the places and they said it was because I was using Firefox. The payments went through when using a different browser.

Is this common? Is there something I can do to make Firefox work universally?

I've received 0 responses from 4 days ago when I posted that since the update to 90.0.2 there are portions of the home page and web pages that block out periodically. I ran Firefox in safe mode and the problem disappeared, I performed a refresh of Firefox and restarted my machine. The blocking or as one other person described it as shadowing still happens but not as bad. I wasn't having any problems with the 2 previous versions at all so I would like to know if something is going to be done about this? Is anyone else having the same problem as I am. I haven't any extensions running, I turned off hardware acceleration so what else can I do?

It seems that after the last update, 7/19/2021, PayPal generated packing lists only print the left 2/3 of the packing list image. The right 1/3 is completely blank. The Address line on the top of the page and the cut here line on the bottom both print properly across the page.

Is this due to the latest update, perhaps a glitch? All the settings are set the same way as before the update.

All troubleshooting failed to fix this issue. The packing list prints properly in Msoft Edge.

Clicking on the Comments section in any ZDNet article (https://www.zdnet.com/article/) gets no response at all. The Comments section doesn't open, I'm not prompted to log in -- nothing. The cursor does change from the default arrow to a hand with pointed finger, as usual, and the Comments bar color flashes as it should when I click on it -- but that's the limit of interaction. I've tested the link with Chrome and Bing and the function still works there, but not in Firefox, and apparently hasn't since about the 26th of July. What's going on, and how can this problem be addressed?

Hello, I would like to use the search function in the tab again. How can I adjust this? At the moment it is so that when you enter it it appears right above in the link line (see picture). I would like it to be in the search below, directly in the tab. Before version 88 this was possible. Why was it removed?

hallo, ich möchte wieder im Tab die Suchfunktion nutzen. Wie kann ich dies einstellen? Zur Zeit ist es so, daß bei einer Eingabe es gleich oben in der Linkzeile erscheint (siehe Bild) Dabei möchte ich es unten in der Suche, direkt im Tab haben. Vor Version 88 war das möglich. Warum wurde es entfernt?

I would like to do this without extensions. Is there a built-in way to do this? Currently I have to use an extension for this ("Open Tabs Next to Current"), but I have read some hints on this forum, where they said that you do not need extensions for this anymore, and you can do this only through about:config. But how??? Screenshot below:
