Cannot login to my bank - Barclays on address:- https://bank.barclays.co.uk/olb/authlogin/loginAppContainer.do#/identification Works on Waterfox, Vivaldi. Brave and Edge

I'm using dark mode for Google and it worked fine until recently when suddenly the SERP appeared in black rather than gray. I have already tried changing the layout.css.prefers-color-scheme.content-override setting to 2 but it didn't have any effect. I have included screenshots of Firefox and Chrome where you can clearly see the difference in color. The black background is very uncomfortable and I need to change it back to the gray color like in Chrome. How?

My work consists mainly of capturing accounting data online. It is important that the browser warns me if I try to close or navigate away from a page if the data entered has not been saved or updated, but I no longer get these warnings.

Please help.

My dad is almost 89 years old. He is NOT TECH SAVVY. I have him using a trackball mouse. His hands are HUGE and his fingers are numb.

Somehow, he is inadvertently adding bookmarks to the bookmark bar. I do not know how he is doing this but he'll call and ask me to "put Gmail back on the bar". When I go over, there are a gazillion new bookmarks which pushes his Gmail bookmark beyond the >> spot. I have to delete these umpteen extra bookmarks so that the Gmail bookmark is visible again. Yesterday, I decided to move Gmail to the far left, hoping these accidental bookmarks he creates won't push it off the bar. The bookmarks he "creates" are specific gmail conversations, or facebook pages, or Publisher's Clearing House pages (he LOVES PCH games and plays them constantly).

HOW IS HE DOING THIS? He doesn't know enough to click the star button. He doesn't know about using the Ctrl and D keys to create a new bookmark. It's driving me BATTY. I'm sure he's somehow doing this using his mouse (clicking both right/left simultaneously but not aware of doing so).

Thanks in advance for helping a daughter keep her sanity ...

Since updating my firefox version this morning, 2/10,2022, I am getting the following error message when accessing and navigating the following websites: youtube, yahoo, ncbsports, etc.

XML PARING ERROR: UNDEFINED ENTITY LOCATION: whatever website I am trying to access and navigate LINE 15, COLUMN 43:

I have restarted my computer and still get the error. All of my other computers, which have not be updated, are working fine. I am unable to reinstall the previous version since is not available to me.

Please help.

I'm not sure this is a problem with Firefox but I have run out of other options to look at. At first I thought it might be because the page uses a frameset (I know it's obsolete) so I created a version that uses an iframe instead. That way the html that needs to be acted on is not in a frame. It still doesn't work. I don't know why it works in stackoverflow's sandbox and jsfiddle but not on my website. Any help is appreciated.

Frameset version iFrame version

If you need to see the tabstrip code (it's virtually identical to the iFrame version): Tabstrip for frameset version

The script is supposed to hilite the selected tab with a red background. The rollover works fine (yellow background and brown text) but the selected tab color never shows up.

I cannot watch a video on youtube when it is in the process of being live streamed. I remember a time when I was able to, years ago, but I can't any longer. I'm not sure what has changed. I found an article that says to install the optional update called "Windows Media Pack" in apps and features, but no app with that name exists. It was only a year old solution, so I'm unsure of what changed so significantly. I just installed another optional windows update, and also updated the browser, but still doesn't work.

Edition Windows 10 Home Version 21H2 Installed on ‎09-‎Jun-‎20 OS build 19044.1466 Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 120.2212.3920.0

Firefox: 97.0 (64-bit)

Hello,

I know that it's possible with Chrome, but I cannot do it with Firefox. Is there preferably) a trick to do it or any add-on ?

Access the history from a tab and then copy one of the link. It's very useful to keep current page open and paste old link (in a mail, a new tab, etc...).

History > Manage history doesn't show anything (but might be normal due to my settings).

Thanks !

Every time that i install a image from the internet, when i click to open it, it opens with the wrong application, when i manually set to open it with gwenview in files and applications on the settings menu, it still using gimp as default

I need to know when a visitor to my site is clicking the back or forward button. The reason is I have a "tabstrip" that hilites the currently selected tab and the target document is displayed in an iframe. If I click the back or forward buttons the page is updated with the last or next document in the iframe, but the tabstrip is not updated to reflect the change. Part of this is due to me not knowing how to update the tabstrip, but also because I don't know how to detect the back or forward buttons being clicked.

So I need to know how to detect those button clicks. Also, in researching this, I noticed that there seems to be an idea that you can't distinguish between the forward and back button, only that a button was clicked. That doesn't make sense given that each button has a specific action that is opposite of the other. I need to know the truth about this.

Finally, as much as I use only Firefox myself, I know there will be others who use other browsers. Is there any difference between detecting the back and forward buttons on other browsers compared to Firefox?

One of the pages I need this for is here

Edit 15 March 2022:

I had to fix the link because I had renamed the page when I finished the work on its layout. Also, since I asked this question I have realized another similar and sort-of related issue on a different page: https://wayneca.neocities.org/WebDesi.../TagList.html. The relation is that the back and forward buttons don't correctly reload the page. The difference is that this one is concerning named links.

When you click a link in the table on the left it correctly moves the document in the right table to the point where the matching id anchor is. But when you click the back or forward button the tables do not shift back to where they were on the page as reloaded. The back and forward buttons work fine if the link anchors and id anchors are not in tables.

I have been told about the history functions, but I have found no examples of using it to correct the issue in either of the above cases. Is someone here able to point me to examples of using the history to make a selected link reset back to where it was or reload a page with the last jump point being reset correctly?

Also, why does the named link thing work without tables but not with tables?

Hello everyone, when I turn on my VPN and I want to use Firefox, it disconnects my connection and I can't open any web page and website! Instead when I open a private page (incognito mode) everything is okay and Firefox works properly! Can you help me to figure out this issue?

I'm trying to create a DOS batch file to clear the current profile's cache (web site data only, not cookies). I have it working fine using a hard-coded path of the existing profile (I only have one profile), but I'd like it to remain viable in case a newer profile is created for whatever reason. Is there a way to retrieve the path into a variable?

Thank you!

Hi I have been using Firefox for years and have been using Gmail within Firefox for years also. The problem which started today is that when I went to open an email within Gmail the only thing I got was the title of the email. There was no message inside the email. If I try and forward the email, the message appears but only with the box to forward the email.

Here is a list of things I tried.

Restarted Firefox (no change Gmail not working properly) Restarted computer (no change Gmail not working properly) Looked up solutions online and did updates to Ad Block (no change Gmail not working properly) Disabled Adblock and uBlock (no change Gmail not working properly)

I can go into Gmail properly on my phone, through Chrome and through the Brave browser and it works fine. Firefox is my main browser and I really don’t want another browser to be open all the time just to access Gmail.

Any help would be great.

Thanks

Whenever I go to Facebook website, the Facebook page goes totally blank. It's happening for a few days now... Facebook is working fine in Chrome without a glitch. It's extremely frustrating. Feel like ditching my beloved browser. Please advice. thanks

I have Dark Theme set to default but it doesn't work. When I enable it, it'll stop working when I close the option tab or move to a different settings menu. When I was looking for the cause, I found the handlers.json files in my Firefox Profiles folder were corrupt. In an older thread I found, it said that if the files are corrupt they need to be "regenerated" but doesn't say how to do so. Please help! How do I fix this so I can turn the Dark Theme back on?

hi

what code i need to put in userChrome.css to hide horizontal scroll bar in firefox but not the vertical one? also its any way to make skinnier the vertical scrollbar?

I decided to update Firefox around January. It forced what is essentially night-mode on all of my websites (Youtube, Bank sites, google, etc), as seen with the pictures attached. I grabbed the white-backround firefox image from google, and edited in my theme to show what it used to look like. Obviously I didn't want this. In addition, that update essentially wiped all of my saved passwords and information on all of the sites I visit.

Well, knowing I had nothing to loose, I reverted to an earlier firefox update (95.0 I believe) and reinstalled my theme, and begain resaving my passwords. This fixed the issue of having Night-mode on all of my websites. Long behold, another update happened which I did not want and now I'm back to square one.

I assume it's because of the theme I'm using. Here but, I really like the theme and I've been using it for years.

Is there any way to fix the annoying night-mode type of backround? I'm perfectly fine with reverting the updates, but I'd like some way to transfer all of the passwords I have already saved again when I do it. I am also open to making my own theme that doesn't force me to use Night Mode, but I wouldn't even know where to begin. Thanks for any help.
