I've followed all of Firefox's suggestions for translating web pages without success. (I have the latest version of Firefox.) No translation panel automatically opens when I visit a page in French. I have no translation icon in the tool bar to click, and "translate page" doesn't appear in any Firefox drop-down menus. No translation options appear when I right click on the web page. Any suggestions?

Hello Mozilla Support,

I'm experiencing an issue with how Firefox displays date and time input fields on websites when using Hebrew (Israel).

• • Environment:**

- Firefox version: 158.0 (64-bit) - Operating system: Windows - Browser interface language: Hebrew - Regional locale: he-IL

• • The problem:**

Date fields are displayed in the format YYYY.MM.DD (for example, 2026.10.14) instead of DD/MM/YYYY (14/10/2026).

Time fields also sometimes display their components in an incorrect order, apparently due to right-to-left (RTL) handling.

This issue occurs across multiple websites, including the standard HTML date input example on MDN, so it is not specific to any particular website.

• • Troubleshooting already performed:**

1. Verified Windows regional settings: Hebrew (Israel), short date format dd/MM/yyyy, and time format HH:mm. 2. Verified Firefox regional preferences show he-IL. 3. Tested intl.regional_prefs.use_os_locales with both true and false. 4. Tested intl.locale.requested with he,en-US, he-IL,en-US, and he-IL. 5. Changed the preferred website language order to prioritize he-IL. 6. Restarted Firefox after making changes.

Unfortunately, the date issue persists, and the time field display is also inconsistent.

• • Expected behavior:**

Date fields should display DD/MM/YYYY, and time fields should display HH:mm in the correct visual order, while keeping the Firefox interface in Hebrew.

Could you please confirm whether this is a known Firefox bug and whether there is a supported workaround or a planned fix?

Thank you.

It seems encoding in my Thunderbird does not match 8bit. Several years ago Thunderbird had an option to modify text encoding but I cannot find such an option in the recent versions. It would be really appreciated if anyone help. Thank you.
