Firefox — Fora społeczności

I keep getting a pop-up for"sign documents online" in my Firefox browser. Several others have reported the same. It overlays the browser content so I can't use Firefox at all. My only option seems to be to uninstall Firefox and use a different browser. Is there a fix?

I created a new iframe and added a new value in its contentWindow, and changed the src of the iframe like below.

``` (() => {

 const frame = document.createElement('iframe');
 document.body.appendChild(frame);
 frame.contentWindow.testASDF = 'TEST_VAR';
 frame.src = 'http://localhost:5500/test/iframe.html';

 setTimeout(() => console.log('testASDF: ', frame.contentWindow.testASDF), 3000); // I expect 'undefined', but 'TEST_VAR' printed.

})(); ```

I thought the 'testASDF' value would be gone after the iframe loaded the new src, but the value I set remaining even after the iframe loaded anew. In Chrome, it's not reproduced.

It only happens when I set a same-origin iframe src and modify the src synchronously with the line above. For example, the script below doesn't reproduce the problem.

``` (async () => {

 const sleep = (ms) => new Promise((res) => setTimeout(res, ms));

 const frame = document.createElement('iframe');
 document.body.appendChild(frame);
 frame.contentWindow.testASDF = 'TEST_VAR';
 await sleep(1); // asynchronous routine added
 frame.src = 'http://localhost:5500/test/test.html';

 setTimeout(() => console.log('testASDF: ', frame.contentWindow.testASDF), 3000);

})(); ```

Is this a bug or optimization of Firefox?

Hi, I just installed the latest update (I think it's 136.0.2). I guess I skipped some/several versions. Suddenly my main menu isn't workin anymore (clicking it with the mouse, that is) There is some overlay which I can't find out, how to remove. Even the Minimize/Maximize/Close buttons don't have any function. Luckily I can still access the menu via keyboard shortcuts. How can I remove that overlay bar ... or did I catch some malware ?

Hi, I've been receiving the following rejection message as follows: jino.ru rejected your message to the following email addresses:

postmaster@pop3-server-spam.org The address you sent your message to wasn't found at the destination domain. It might be misspelled or it might not exist. Try to fix the problem by doing one or more of the following:

   Send the message again, but before you do, delete and retype the address. If your email program automatically suggests an address to use, don't select it.
   Clear the recipient AutoComplete cache in your email program by following the steps in this article: Status code 5.1.1. Then resend the message, but before you do, be sure to delete and retype the address.
   Contact the recipient by some other means (by phone, for example) to confirm you're using the right address. Ask them if they've set up an email forwarding rule that could be forwarding your message to an incorrect address.

The sender of the email gets those message. I get them also but I'm also getting the message that they send me. It's only doing it with my outlook account. Why is that? I checked it directly on the Outlook website and everything is OK. I can't understand why this is happening.

Why when you click on the extensions button (jigsaw puzzle icon) in the toolbar to open the extensions panel the “Personalize Your Firefox” screen appears ???

When you right click a gear icon in a particular extension, the drop down menu has no "pin to tool bar" option, it only shows "copy/select all/print..." options ???

Thnak you.

Since the new "feature" profiles came out, I now always have this "originalprofile" in the browser (in the title bar) and in the Windows taskbar... It's really annoying.... Now my question is, how do I get rid of it again... on 3 more pictures, Firefox language is German...

For some time now, firefox literally has NO horizontal scrollbar, even on sites when it is clearly needed.

How do I make it visible? Is it a Windows 10 & 11 thing?

Also, before anyone suggests it, several posts online mention to go to Settings > General > Browsing > Always show scrollbars. These posts are over a year old, however, and this option DOES NOT exist.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I'm working on a Firefox extension where I need to detect print event. I've tried the following approaches:

• beforeprint – Fires immediately when the print dialog opens (works correctly in Chrome).
• afterprint – Fires immediately when the dialog closes (works correctly in Chrome).
• window.focus and visibilitychange – Work inconsistently with noticeable delay, depending on how Firefox handles focus/visibility updates after closing the dialog.

Questions: 1. Is there a reliable way in Firefox to detect print event? 2. Are there any known workarounds or events that could be used for this purpose?

Thanks.

I'm expressing a strong dislike for the very shortened list of paper sizes in Firefox in the Print function.

One big reason I use Firefox over Chrome and MS Edge is the long list of paper sizes. Now the list is a small fraction of what was there. And how many people know what sizes are the likes of A4, B3, JIS-B4. It takes extra time to figure out what works best.

The old list with Letter Plus, Letter Extra, Legal Plus, etc. was MUCH MORE useful. If I were to eliminate anything, it would be the meaningless A5, B5, etc.

At least give us an option of the old or too short new list of paper sizes.

If my comments aren't appropriate in this forum, please provide a link to where I can submit it.

Hi,

I take a look to forums and docs but didn't find answer to it : just found informations about the use of firefox -P

Is there a way to change the defaults profile path.

For example, in the profiles.ini :

Name=default IsRelative=1 Path=Profiles/be7er9lz.default Default=1

this is a relative path referring to %appdata%\Mozilla\Firefox\[PathVariableValue]

Is there a way to change a config file or config to customise the path for all users a windows computer ?

For example :

setting this variable to \\nameofserver\Firefox\

will made all relatives profiles looking for : \\nameofserver\Firefox\[PathVariableValue]

without this option, I should be obliged to edit all users profiles.ini to change path to absolute

Thanks for your help

When I open a PDF in Firefox, a box covers the right half the page demonstrating the highlighter tool. It never leaves. It blocks half the page and prevents me from reading and/or printing. Please help. It's making my work impossible.

On Debian 12 running XFCE the shutter function in the top right orner is missing. This is a option like close, minimize, maximize that allows Linux GUI to only see the title bar, so it is out of the way of other screen applications. It is represented by the caret.

See enclosed

Since FF35, using linux with e26wm, the title bar is gone. Screen seems to be stuck in full setting - F11 just shows/hides top right min/max/exit toggles. Min/max doesn't work. Going to customize toolbars, title bar option is there and checked but the option itself looks like it is grayed out (lighter color). Screen cannot be resized. I am used to a menu accessed via rt. click on the title bar but that is gone (I do have access to that menu with combo alt/rt-clk anywhere on screen - see below). That menu had a shade option (window shade like) which I used extensively but thats gone. If I click alt-rt click anywhere on the screen, I can get my missing control menu back without the shade option but with a borderless option checked which cannot be changed. I am fully aware that linux + E26 is kinda out there but have been all over my settings (includes border settings which firefox ignores). I can't find any permission settings on config/js/pref files which may be a cause. Thing is, mozilla thunderbird's screens work and title bar is in place with desired menu, etc. as do all other apps except ms edge, which leads me to feel it is a firefox setting somewhere and I believe it is the side thingy that everyone seems to love in chromium/chrome might be the cause - the tabs on top option which I don't have an interest in. Sorry for the length here but I'm at my wits end and all a google search offers (here as well) is to go customize etc. etc. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated - been using FF on linux since day 1 without any problems I couldn't figure out till now.

How can i download a pdf of my passwords. I think i need to set up a lock screen first. Please give precise instructions how to accomplish both these tasks. Im having great difficulty signing in and out of sites so until i figure out how and why things have changed i need a list of passwords. My device is currently unlocked. I have trouble finding my way back to my questions here. Why doesnt firefox have a history function? Sometimes it does but its not recent. I put all these questions together because its too difficult finding my way back to every individual question. I have a hundred questions about firefox so many that its daunting to consider as it would take me days to do and its time i dont have. Somehow my firefox account has gotten too confusing and complex

When working hints on Ancestry.com, under certain conditions a second scrollbar is generated to the immediate left of the right hand scrollbar. This second scrollbar is used to move downward in the hint compare area on the right hand side of the open page. When running under Firefox on Windows 11 systems "this second scrollbar is not there"! Everything works fine using any other browsers (EDGE, Chrome, Brave), but not Firefox! Works fine on Windows 10 systems. I have tried this on 3 different Windows 11 computers with the same failed results.

I use Xero accounting software and used to be able to view pdf within the software up until the recent update. Now it just sits with a spinning wheel. I've found that if I change the setting within Firefox to open the pdf within Firefox the issue is fixed in Xero. But then all pdf's open in Firefox instead of the usual Adobe. This breaks other workflows within my organisation as I need to email the pdf straight away when I download it, so my Windows was set with Adobe as the default for opening pdf's but now Firefox has taken that over. There does not appear to be any way to email the pdf from Firefox other than to save it and then find the file and email it from there which is very time consuming. I don't know what has changed in Firefox, but please can you fix it. I see I'm not the only person with this issue.
