Problem accessing https://www.thetrainline.com
When trying to access this website with Firefox 92.0 (Mac OS10.15.7), I get a message that my log in data (user ID, password) is not correct. However, using Safari my login is successful, and the same using my iPhone or iPad. I have raised the issue with the operator of the website, but thought that maybe there is something that can fix the problem directly in Firefox ??
