CONTEXT Many societies, including most of the Spanish and Portuguese speaking world (~730 million people), use two part surnames. This means the full name in most official documents, including passports, take the format:

Name: <name> Surname: <first surname from father> <first surname from mother>

Here is an example of the famous (deceased) Spanish poet:

Name: Federico Surname: García Lorca

Note the two part surname. There is no hyphen nor should there be one. He has TWO surnames.

PROBLEM A recent update in Firefox introduced a single field for name under Settings > Privacy & Security > Saved Addresses which is used by Autofill to fill forms.

Our poet would enter "Federico García Lorca" under name. If he were then to purchase a plane ticket and rely on Firefox Autofill to fill in the details, Autofill -- in a very narrow anglophone view -- will interpret "García" as a middle name and suppress it.

As a result, the plane ticket will be issued to "Federico Lorca" who is not even the same person, and who may not even exist. Moreover, he may be denied boarding the plane or refused entry into the USA because the name on the ticket does not match any of his official documentation.

I have had to disable Autofill for this reason.

SOLUTION A proposed solution is to do like Edge does: Have separate Name and Surname fields the user can specify.

Thank you.

Hi, We are using Horizon VDI terminal server. Firefox is installed on these servers. Some users get Firefox is already running but is not responding error. Ending Firefox via task manager does not work. I log off the user and have them log in again, but it does not work.

When I check, I see that the user's profile file cannot be created on any terminal server.

Is there a solution to this problem?

Last week I upgrade to Microsoft 365 and now my Firefox browser screen no longer has a side bar with all my favorites with the remainder of the screen filled with information for a favorite. In addition, I had access to search history which I would delete with regularity. Please help me to restore my previous features. Thank you. Anthony P. Randazzo, Jr.

Good day everyone,

I have been breaking my head over this for about a week. After the last update that was installed, now my tab width is smaller than the minimum width I have set them to. However, this only happens with active tabs from pages that have an embedded video. At first I thought this was just a thing with YouTube, but it seems it also happens with other video sites. I guess it may be related to whenever the playback button displays in the tab title and it detects there is video content.

I would like to know how to fix this behavior so that my tabs are no longer shortened beyond the minimum width setting.

Thank you in advance.

When searching through this cite I am getting a lot of spanish - see screen shot. Every setting on system I can find states english. Anything I'm missing?? FF 136.0.1, linux, enlightenment e26. starting FF with -purgecaches switch does nothing, just added FF136.0.1 this A.M.

I keep getting the same DNS error for pages that I have been to 100s of times before. Why is this happening now? I'm guessing it's because of a recent update, but can't imagine why Firefox has an issue with Rebel Sport all of a sudden.

Have attached a copy of the error page. Hoping someone can explain why this is happening and how to get rid of it.

Why does microsoft keep blocking Firefox when I want to go to a web page.....says "no access" I have an HP computer and it was built by Best Buy and I had to get outlook email when the computer was built. I have been with Mozilla Firefox since around 2006 I think. When I had my first little Mac. I think I donate too every month to Mozilla also. Microsoft edge haunts me. Thanks Sharon L Frye .....now Sharon L Woods

I'm receiving this when I log on to Huffington Post. Never had this happen before. What's going on?
