I noticed recently that my Firefox changed, now when I click on the search/url bar at the top of the screen it opens into this full window sized search bar that sits at the top of the screen which is really bothersome. I also noticed that the close and minimize icons which are normally at the top right of the screen moved to be pushed inwards. I cannot tell if this is some issue with my Arch install, or a theme, but I tried switching to other themes in Firefox that do not use the system stuff and it seems to still be an issue? Could it be something else? I am totally at a loss as to what caused this and how to fix it, if I need to do something else on my system I can do more troubleshooting as well. (I have included two screenshots showing what I mean)

So yea I've noticed opened Youtube tabs will just randomly start the video playing while I'm in another tab, it's really annoying. I've tried disabling all extensions but it continues to happen. Anyone know whats going on, it's been happening for a really long time.

Hi, I am in Australia and over recent months I have had trouble fully loading websites on FireFox. I have used FireFox on my laptop for many years but this issue has just emerged. I can open the same websites on Chrome and they open as fully functional ie, links are live, sign in options are available. Is there a reason why this is happening? The websites I tried to open on FireFox are important sites for me and I use them regularly. Is there something in settings that I need to change? I do not want to stop using FIreFox but I will have to change if I cannot access these websites. I have attached screen shots of one particular website on FireFox and Google Chrome. Kind regards Narelle

Whenever I open certain tabs i get a red triangle saying "Not barred from the "Adults" category" and i cannot seem to disable this , I also use uBO

And even when I remove exception is does not work

Latest Version Private Browsing Mode

Hello.

'Autoplay->Block Video and Audio' selected.

2 websites listed, which I did not place there, 'Allow Audio and Video' selected:

1. about:welcome 2. aboutwelcomeprivate welcome

'Removing' them causes them to be automatically 're-appear.'

Suggestion: about:config, .isolateBy.privateBrowsing,' and change 'True' to False.

Changing the 'above value' does not remove the 2 'allowed' websites nor does it stop A and V from playing automatically.

Not possible to Block all Video and Audio Automatically 'or' am I missing an 'obvious' solution?

I recently started having a problem with my banking website. Before I could investigate or report it, Mozilla released a bug fix 1923500 "Firefox 131 Enhanced Tracking Protection major breakage of multiple banks Bill Pay services" I have updated to Firefox 131 however, there may still be a problem, however before I report it I'd like to verify if it's simply that their link is broken. Let me explain: On my bank's website there is "Payment Inquiry" link with this link "https://paybills.MyBankName.com/imm/Auth/SLO/4661?ReturnUrl="

What happens is that it sends me back to the login screen, I navigate to the Payment Inquiry again, click the link... rinse and repeat... in an endless loop. I suspect that the URL is malformed because there is nothing following the "=" sign. I would expect something to follow the equal sign. Is this indeed a bad URL? Should I pursue with my bank? I only ask because is seemed more than a coincidence that this occurred near the same time as bug fix 1923500.

My organization uses Box Drive for file storage/transfer. I recently upgraded to an ARM-based PC (Microsoft Surface) which the Box app does not support, forcing me to use a browser to access my files.

When I upload a file to Box via Firefox, it repeatedly uploads the same file until I close the browser. I only noticed this after coming back to the tab and noticing that the PDF I uploaded was on version 1,937 and counting. I tested another file and observed the same behavior.

The behavior persists when using a private window with all extensions disabled.

The bug does not appear to affect Chrome: files upload once as expected.

In Firefox, other services such as Dropbox and Google Drive are not affected, only Box.

Anybody else experienced this and found a solution?

hello last few days this started.... been in dark mode for years now,,,, on utube trying to add a comment,,, the typing is blacked out so i cant see it until after its posted .. i can search on utube as the text comes out white ,, just while making a comment it is black on black and cant see what i am typing ,,, the comment when posted shows up as white on black .. hope thats easy to fix lol thanks mike

When I search on the NTP or Homepage, the sidebar/tab-bar expands on my left with the different websites search previews. When I use my mouse to click on one of the suggested sites it does not take me to the website, it goes blank. But when I use the keyboard arrows to choose a site then press enter, only then it opens the website.

Hope I made it clear enough?

Thanks,

I've just updated from Firefox 101.0.1 to Firefox ESR 115.18.0 (I'm still using Windows 7, so can't get a more recent release). I have a program which reads a cURL command from the clipboard then runs cURL repeatedly with slightly modified versions of the command. The command is read from the clipboard rather than pasted into the command prompt window because it may be more than 4096 characters. This no longer works with the updated version of Firefox. Comparing the cURL commands from the two versions of Firefox showed lots of "^" characters had been added. For example "120Months|Yield|RiskScore" had become "120Months^|Yield^|RiskScore". When I edited the cURL command to remove the "^" characters, everything worked like it had before the Firefox update. I suspect this is related to the changes introduced by Bug 1777800. I would like to know whether the problem can be reproduced using up-to-date versions of Firefox and Windows. Starting with web page https://www.trustnet.com/fund/price-performance/t/investment-trusts?norisk=true&PageSize=25 use the network monitor to capture the result of moving to the next page of data, Copy as cURL (Windows) and use the result. Do you get a response containing the data for the next 25 funds or a very small file containing an error message?
