Firefox fails to show complete URL

Hi,

Firefox does not show the complete URL when log-pressing on a link.

This is a security-issue, since it's impossible to assess if a link is malicious if you can't see the link...

This is just an example.

It would be better with a scrolling feature for the links.

For some reason, some links does not show at all.

Hi

With many website addresses being longer than the url bar, some accommodation needs to be made when eiew the web on a small screen.

That said, the website address is still there and should you be concerned about a particular address, you can tap the address as if to edit it and move the cursor to see the full text.

Hi,

Thank you for your reply.

I am not talking about the URL field in the top op the browser, I am talking about lokking at a link when long pressing (for example long pressing an article or a picture, or just a plain link). Look at the previous picture I added.

On Google Chrome, they provide a scrolling feature. I am sure that the Mozilla team could implement the same solution or something similar. And Google Chrome has reduced the font-size to be able to fit more text at the same time.

Hi

If you look at the same CNN link, the Chrome solution is much better and gives more information.

If the Mozilla Team could implement something similar I would be very grateful.

Best regards
