I use userChrome.css and userContent.css to (1) turn unvisited links bright red, and (2) turn visited links bright purple, and (3) add underlines to all links.

This works well on light backgrounds, makes links easy to see and easy to distinguish from other text, but makes them harder to see on pages with dark backgrounds.

Is there a way to vary the link color to improve contrast? I can't use the default colors because most sites use blue links which are hard to distinguish from black text.

I am having trouble with the ENO extension when I use Firefox. I click on the extension and it just spins and spins and spins. I have contacted Capital One about this at least six times. Every time I do I am told that it is working fine. I might be told to reboot, clear cache, etc. It might work once but then stops working.

When I use it on Chrome it always works fine. Every time. If I don't remember before I start a credit card transaction and use Firefox I end up when it is the time to use ENO and it does not work. Then I have to start over.

How can I get Capital One to put in some work on this? Can you help? I don't think ENO should be available for Firefox since it works so poorly.

Thanks

Firefox keeps asking for user certificate even when I have "Remember this decision" checked

The user certificate works fine, but it's FRICKING INFURIATING that Firefox just keeps on asking for the certificate. The first time I go to a site that requires logging in using a user certificate, it pops up the same dialog 4 times in a row. Then if I switch to another tab and spend a couple of minutes there, restart Firefox or reload the tab that I logged in, it now asks for the certificate all over again!

How can I just god damn make Firefox remember what certificate I want it to use without it always asking for it? No, "Remember this decision" does not do that.

Hello! When I set up my website restrictions on Mac Ventura (System Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy > Content Restrictions > Access to Web Content > Customize), Safari blocks my sites but Firefox does not.

From what I see (eg, this article ), Firefox should block the same sites. Am I wrong?

I appreciate your help!

About a week ago I started having trouble downloading large high resolution photo files. I have been downloading these files for work for over a year and they have always load very quick. I would click on the file and the entire photo file would be there instantly. However, for the past week these file do not download or download very slowly. I have checked internet speed, which is 310. I can also switch browsers and have no problem downloading the same files. So its not my computer and it not the internet, so something has changed with Firefox. Can you help?? I have used Firefox for over 20 years and don't want to change browsers, but I have to work and this downloading is a problem.

Hi

I hope that I can mumble my way through this...

I run a SMF Forum and have no problems with any Browsers except for Firefox.... I like Mozilla Products a lot and would like to stay with Firefox..

I have uploaded two images, one with Chrome showing the image correctly and the other image using Firefox which doesn't show the image.

Is there a setting that I am Missing ?

Attempting to Save a displayed PDF opens a floating menu item and "freezes" Firefox 115.0.2 in OSX 12.6.3

I am trying to save the PDF at this URL:

https://s3.amazonaws.com/com.eventide.downloads/Product+Manuals/H9ControlManual.pdf

When I select save in the upper right corner of the displayed document a floating (no background or buttons) drop down menu with only one selection appears in the lower middle of the screen.

https://assets-prod.sumo.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/media/uploads/images/2023-07-15-09-35-28-a67fbe.png


In documenting this I made a screenshot, and when I clicked it, it appeared in a Firefox Tab (normal behavior) but when I right clicked that and selected Save, another floating drop down menu appeared

When opening some PDF's using 115, some or all of the text appears to be random characters. I downgraded to 114 and opened the same PDF, and the issue occurred in the same way. Can't upload the PDF itself using this form, but I've Attached a screenshot of a PDF and you'll see that some text is normal while other text is not.

Helpful details: - Issue does not occur when opening files in Chrome and Adobe. - On 115, disabling "allow pages to choose their own font" setting does fix the issue. However, this is not a permanent workaround for me, as I need other websites to display text normally (without Firefox overriding). - Downgrading to 114 also fixed the issue. This leads me to suspect that v115 has a bug, or some other issue that is causing this text problem to occur with PDFs. - The PDFs are created in Salesforce.com, but since the issue only occurs on v115, it's unlikely that Salesforce is the cause of any issues.

In my job, I open a lot of PDFs, and having them open in separate tabs on Firefox is a huge part of my workflow. Salesforce works so terribly with Chrome so I am crossing fingers that we can get Firefox working again. Any help is greatly appreciated!

As I use Firefox throughout the day, webpages will just stop for a bit. Sometimes its only a few seconds, other times for a few minutes. It is most noticeable when playing videos but does happen at other times as well. During the halt, I can still access Firefox's settings and all menu items. It is just website interactions that stop.

For example, when a halt occurs on youtube, the video will eventually stop, depending on the buffer, and scrolling through the comments won't pull up any more and replies won't load. Then after a few moments, everything will start working again without issue, and all the uncompleted actions (such as opening new replies or trying to go to another page) will execute.

I used to think it was related to my computer's connection to our company's access server, but refreshing my connection through a CMD ipconfig /renewall worked so rarely that I assume it was just coincidental timing.

I also tried turning off hardware acceleration, but that had no positive effect. I'll make a separate post about that issue.

The thing that fixes it every time is odd: launching Chrome. I wanted to make sure it was just Firefox, so I tried launching Chrome, and then Firefox started working immediately. (Spotify still plays when Firefox halts too)

Is there anything I can adjust to keep this halting from happening? I can manage right now, but it is sort of annoying to launch Chrome every time.

I upgraded to Firefox 115.0.2. Now I can log into my T-Mobile account. But when I try to access 'Bill & Pay' or 'View Accounts' I now get "Access Restricted" error messages. This is frustrating as I was able to do so before. Clearing Cookies and Site Data provided no relief. T-Mo support had me try in in Private Browsing, and it works.

I had an issue with a bank, and turned off AVG Anti-Track and it work. But no so with T-Mo.

What the heck is wrong?

Hello. I regularly read a scientific site that often uses Greek characters. Most of them are replaced by a square in FF as well as some mathematical symbols. The issue doesn't happen with Safari hence the said characters are not missing in the System. I uploaded one screenshot taken with Firefox and one with Safari. The page it's taken on is https://www.ca-se-passe-la-haut.fr/2023/01/mesure-du-taux-dune-reaction-cle-du.html. When the issue is too annoying I switch to Safari but my main browser has always been FF so it's bothering. Is there any remedy? TIA Best regards Nick
