Firefox Community Forum

Via C > Users > User > Appdata > Roaming > Firefox > Profiles >x73axdaw.default-release> storage > Default I'm presented with my various website stored info. What I'd like to know is how via the files I can discover the relevant url if able. For example in the screenshot noclip.website is a valid url, other option not so.

Metadata doesn't seem to be helpful and can't find out a "target url" looking through other files.

Can I please get an explanation for this

link text

When I click in the search field, outside of the text, I only want to bring the search field into focus. I don't want it to highlight anything.

When I single click on a word, I'm trying to edit, 'not 'highlight.

When I double click on a word, I'm want to highlight only that word. A triple click would highlight everything.

Is that possible?

Altering these to false does nothing: browser.urlbar.clickSelectsAll , browser.urlbar.doubleClickSelectsAll

Hi :-)

What's the difference between Restricted Domains and Quarantined Domains?

Why are there 2 keys ( extensions.webextensions.restrictedDomains and extensions.quarantinedDomains.list ), and why have they to be handled differently?

I posted this back in February and never got any replies, so lets try again.  :-)

OS: Xubuntu 24.04.2 Firefox: All version for quite a long time up through version 137.01

In general I have no problem with direct URLs loaded into Firefox, whether from local links or from remote sites.

However, sometimes, possibly as a result of an embedded link in an email, or from a site that pops-up a new instance of the default browser (i.e., Firefox), the URL is mangled with a local filesystem path prepended to the proper URL. The path seems to be one that Firefox accessed in the recent past. For example, a path such as: /usr/local/bin

When clicking on the link, the browser starts up with the URL field showing: /usr/local/binhttps://.........

I then have to delete the leading path component before I can access the URL. I'd include a test case if I could find something repeatable that I could post here, but at the moment I don't have one.

Any ideas why this is happening and any suggestions for a way to stop Firefox from prepending the local filesystem path?

Thanks.

With HTTPS only Mode I notice that the "s" does not appear in the address bar like before. Should it be there? For instance, when on a secure site, before signing in I always look for a closed lock and the "s" in the web address indicating the site is secure.

Not sure if the problem is accessibility or settings is the best category.

When I try to load the print replica link for the daily newspaper in the email, the page doesn't go to the correct link. Instead it goes to a general page for help, editions, games, etc.

I also checked my email on Safari and the newspaper link for the daily print replica worked.

Something isn't working on Firefox and I need help correcting the problem. I could use Safari but I am accustomed to Firefox and have a lot of stuff on Firefox.

I have a copy of the incorrect page and would like to send the image but think it might make my email vulnerable.

Please help to resolve this issue.

a few months ago, i built a new computer and upgraded to windows 11. but i have been having a bug where after resuming use of a firefox window, i will at some point lose the ability to left clicks links or to type in any fields on the page. for my mouse, i can still properly left click web buttons, like the youtube players, and i can left click tabs to switch between them. right and middle click still work correctly as well. for the keyboard, i can use keybinds on my keyboard (ctrl-tab/ctrl-shift-tab/ctrl-a) or hit space bar/page up/page down to navigate, but typing in fields just doesnt work. this bug happens after some random point of using the program, so it could happen after 10 seconds or 10 minutes.

the only way to fix it is to switch to a different program momentarily, whether that be alt tabbing to a non firefox window or clicking the desktop. ive just tried switching all my extensions and everything off with troubleshoot mode, but still experienced the bug. ive also tried different keyboards and mice in different ports and had the same issue persist, so i dont think its my peripheral software since i used generic keyboards too.

does anyone have any suggestions on what could be happening here and if anyone is experiencing the same issue? its very frustrating

Hello, I would wish to return to the old view in full, that is, complete spelling of the true complete url, including "http" or "https" in the url that shows up in the address bar for any website. It looks like mozilla decided to hide the "http" and "https" just because it is automatically verified, but I am not happy with it being hidden. How can I set it back to always show up by default? Thanks a lot in advance.

For the Life of me, I cannot Figure-out how to drag-and-drop websites from the Address bar, to the Desktop on the Computer. I tried dragging the Padlock didn't work. I tried dragging the Shield didn't work. Tried even dragging the whole URL. and even made bookmarks with the Link just to try it.

What am I missing? Wracking my brain trying to Figure-out the Conundrum

I'm trying to use a script which requires a question mark after the "dot com." I.e., if the url should be http://www.URL.com?custom_URL, it changes it to http://www.URL.com/?custom_URL. How to I keep it from changing the URL - and what is the point of jamming that slash in there in the first place?

This is my second attempt at getting an answer. Can't anyone help me with this?

When i search for something on google the videos are all redirected to Yandex

I provided a screenshot.

The links are supposed to be YouTube but instead it's Yandex

Please help me fix this if possible.

I don't know, if it's an eBay's problem, or Firefox's - some, not all, items for sale, on eBay, when displaying the individual "For Sale" page with hot links, like "Add to Watchlist", "Buy it Now", etc. are not hot, and cannot be used. Sometimes, if I hit "refresh" one, or more times, those links become hot, sometimes, not. If an eBay problem, please let me know. If a browser problem, please fix the bug!

hi everyone, first of all, happy new year.

while browsing reddit, i keep seeing these strange underlined empty links on random words/names. for example this comment here: https://www.reddit.com/r/moviecritic/comments/1hpse0f/comment/m4jxdwq/ shows the name of actress underlined.

i disabled all my extensions and the problem persisted. i checked using chrome and the problem didn't exist.

on inspect element i found something called faceplate-tracker though.

any clue what is this? and how to deal with it?
