Firefox Community Forum

hi, I tried on more time to switch fro Chrome to Firefox, but hit another snag. Some websites allow you to read more contents if you turn off Java script. On Chrome, there is an easy way to block Java script for individual web sites, under Privacy&Security, Site settings, but not on Firefox. How can I for example block Java script for https://www.energyvoice.com or https://www.nytimes.com.

If this does not reach the correct department, please forward or let me know how to contact them. Thank you, Jon Borresen j.borresen@outlook.com

I've noticed that when video media begins to play, it often suddenly slows down the entire browser's processing ability and cuts to strange visual glitches limited to just the video window, usually green and pink pixelated glitches. This doesn't happen on YouTube, nor does it happen when I use other browsers like Edge. I'm on Windows 11, using the latest Firefox version, with Strict privacy settings and a reliable and simple adblock. Had the same setup on a previous Windows 10 laptop and did not have these issues. It's getting frustrating and is impacting my experience with this browser across multiple websites. I refuse to switch back to sketchy, predatory browsers like Chrome and Edge, so I hope this can be fixed, either on my end or on Mozilla's. Thanks! (Attached a screenshot of the visual glitches.)

What is the easiest way to import the current state of Safari into Firefox? Would like to create the same set of windows, with each window having the same set of tabs, if possible. I did a bit of googling but no success with what I found.

I really want to avoid manually creating all the same things one by one by one...

I'm not talking about importing all the history and passwords and other stuff - the actual windows and tabs.

Thanks...

ps - would like it to work with current release of Firefox, aka 134.02 on Sequoia and Ventura versions of macOS, as well as Firefox 115.19.0esr on an older macOS Mojave system.

Lately more than once, i face pages which does not load at all makes me spend time checking from server side, and its end working normally with Chrome, but not with firefox, for instance i ran a hashivault in ec2 , i am able to access it using chrome, but with firefox it never open giving error:

The connection was reset

The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.

   The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
   If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer’s network connection.
   If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the web.

please advise, thanks.

Firefox always display some little weird block in address bar. Some character such as ‘g’ displayed as a little block. But when I click the address bar, it returns to origin appearence. Some Chinese characters are in the same situation. I do't know whether it's a BUG or not. I only see it on Firefox in Windows 11. I use Firefox 128.6.0esr 64-bit version. Thanks for help me.

I am in cape Verde and using Exprees VPN. I cannot access BBC iPlayer with Firefox (my default browser). But I can access it with safari. I am on a MAC laptop (Sonoma)

The search bar triggered by ctrl+f at the bottom of screen changes the screen size, which is annoying when browsing responsive pages and every element in the page shakes.

Similarly, in fullscreen mode, hovering at the top of screen reveals the address bar, which let the whole page scroll down 1cm. This is also visually annoying.

Is there any way to prevent such kind of hypersensitive screen resizing?

Hi.

Very old/test system. centos6 - running ff ver78.3. really old, rarely used, for testing.

However, within the last few days, something has occurred that has removed the vertical up/down arrows in the browser window. The other test browsers -- chrome/sea-monkey have the up/down arrows for scrolling.

Looking through the about:config attributes, based on other past user posts haven't solved the issue.

thanks

Sir;

I am an ADVANCED USER & a search in '"'s Double quotes must return nothing but what is in the double quotes!!!!!! Now the IQ=1 AI developers have disabled this absolute unchangeable & legally require function! So where is a HOWTO that allows totally tuenibf OFF all AI? This AI now makes it over 10,000 times harder to search.

Today I'm attempting a simple search for a song lyirc I know which says "When pleasure is your master, convienence is your heart's desire" which is the excat wording from the song, but never ever now find that due to AI's interference in thed search!

This abuse of the USER must stop. We advance users never ever need AI to find a dingle thing foer us as we know exactly whazt we are looking for & need no interverence by "THE IQ OF 1 AI".

If this is not fixed then "FIX IT NOW!!!!!"
