I'm using Firefox 112.0 on a mac desktop running OS10.13.6. when I go to a webpage- for example-Bing.com, and I click on one of the story links, that page opens. the page will have a short description of topic, and links to go to other websites for more info. when I select one of those links to open, as usual a new tab opens, but recently, when the new tap opens, instead of displaying the web page from the link, a blank page is displayed (with the URL from the link displayed on top). refreshing the page doesn't help. If I manually copy the url from the new tab, and manually open a new tab and paste in the same url, the page associated with that link opens normally. Why doesn't this happen when I first click on a link to view ? this started over the last few days. I'm running in private mode. (I switched to regular mode but it didn't help)  ?? help please thank you
