Using Firefox 157.0.1. , Windows 10 Pro. When I right click one of the menu items I get is ""Open link in new tab". This has always worked - keeping the current tab open and opening the link in a new tab. When I click on that now it opens the link I want to go to but then closes and replaces current tab. Is this a new "feature"? Please email [redacted email from community support forum]

Hello,

I’m the developer of SnakeGame.Live , a browser-based multiplayer snake game with mouse steering on desktop.

I would like to understand the difference between Firefox’s F11 fullscreen mode and fullscreen activated through a website’s Fullscreen API.

For a mouse-controlled game, do these modes behave differently when the pointer reaches the top edge of the screen? Is there a recommended way to let players use fullscreen while keeping Firefox’s normal exit controls available?

I’m using Windows 10. I would appreciate guidance on the expected Firefox behavior and any relevant support documentation.

Thank you.

I can type in the address bar, but the search box is just showing a magnifying glass and can't be clicked on. None of the tools at the right hand side of the address bar are present, so no star for bookmarks etc... If I type an address in the address bar and hit return/enter, nothing happens at all.

My bookmarks bar is completely blank. (I can still access bookmarks via the hamburger menu though)

Everything was fine yesterday, any ideas please?

I enjoyed the functionality of the sports widget during the world cup. Are there any plans to make it useful for other sports? is there some kind of API to mess around with to build your own firefox homescreen widgets? I'd love to see MLB schedules/scores/updates populated on the new tab page.
