Using Firefox today I tried to search for various things using https://oceanhero.today/search.. I got this error message:

"Sorry, there was an error when rendering your search. We were notified and will try to resolve this issue as soon as possible."

But the search engine - which I've been using on Firefox for a long time without any problems - works fine on Bing.

Is there a remedy? Many thanks for any advice.

I tried to add a new credit card to my subscription account on the www.everydropwater.com website. My attempts failed twice for no apparent reason. I called their customer support at 1-800-442-9991 and described my problem. They asked me which browser I was using. I told them "Firefox". They said that's the problem, their credit card update function simply does not work under Firefox!

I was appalled that they know their site doesn't work under a popular browser, yet they don't seem to care or be interested in fixing their site!

Can you folks fix this problem? (I felt like a traitor when I downloaded and used Chrome to get around it.)

I'm using 64-bit Firefox 112.0.1 under Windows 10 version 22H2 on a Dell laptop.

Thanks!!

The problem is : Some of the time FF just records 0 bytes file and says nothing. I suspect that FF inspect the URL of the links and discard ( perhaps for security reason ) ones that do not begin with HTTP.

The bypass is : One has to copy the link and insert in in the new page of FF.

The solution would be to change FF code.

Thank you.

Hi,

I have a web application which runs perfectly on firefox versions below 103. Meanwhile, I had to change my laptop and I installed latest firefox version on my new laptop. I have a login page in my web application which isn't working in the latest firefox version. But, the application works perfectly even now in the older versions below 103. What might be the reason?

Thanks in advance

Recently I've noticed that some sections in Google search results pages show black text on dark backgrounds when running dark mode.

It doesn't happen in private windows or in troubleshooting mode, so I suspect it's some obscure custom setting that's causing the issue. It also doesn't happen in other browsers.

I've tried switching themes and changing the colour override settings but can't find the setting causing the issue. I've also tried clearing the browser cache and cookies but no dice there either.

Hoping to avoid a refresh just to fix this.

Hi, I have tried to create a google account two times. Each time Firefox didn't save the google account name.

Firefox did save the password though. Just the username is empty. So, the third time I will write down the username.

I know how to create a Google account. Pretty sure it will work. My question is, why is this happening? Am I paranoid thinking Google doesn't like to support Firefox?

Best regards

Since yesterday (Sep 26 2023), Twitch.tv has been having multiple issues related to basic functionality of the website, and this has happened before but I did not report it because I was able to fix it. I can not purchase or use bits despite Twitch having a stored payment method on file that I have confirmed has sufficient funds, I can not subscribe or gift subscriptions despite Twitch having that same sufficiently funded payment method on file, I can not redeem or earn channel points, I can not send or receive Twitch Whispers (a form of DM), I can not follow or unfollow channels, and I am convinced that if I was to log out, I would not be able to log back in. I can chat in stream chat, and I can watch streams, that's all I can do. But I enjoy using the other features that are currently blocked, I am over 18, and I am the only person that uses this computer, so there should be no parental controls problems either. Yesterday, I restarted my browser, which did NOT alert me that it had updated, and all of this functionality was broken. Roughly 6 months ago I was having the exact same issues, but I was able to fix it by disabling many of the anti-tracking protections on my browser (had to disable them universally except for blocking cryptominers, not just with the shield icon). However, now, even with those settings unchanged, roughly 75% of the features of the website Twitch.tv are nonfunctional. I have included a cropped screenshot of me attempting to redeem something using channel points, the purple box is the button, and the spinner icon stays there for over a minute with nothing happening, which is not how that is supposed to work.

I enjoy watching streams and interacting with people on Twitch.tv, and I wish to continue doing so in the way I am accustomed to. However, it would appear that Firefox has other plans. If this continues, I will be forced to switch to a less secure browser for specifically that site, which is an idea I do not look forward to.
