Firefox not opening scholarship websites properly on mobile
Hello Mozilla team, 👋 I’ve noticed that some educational websites — including my own scholarship guide, https://theoasisscholarship.com/
— aren’t displaying correctly on Firefox for Android.
The issue I see: Some pages don’t load fully, especially forms and PDF links. The same pages work fine on Chrome or Edge mobile. Clearing cache or disabling add-ons didn’t help. Can you please guide me on how to debug or fix this issue? Is there a specific setting, user agent, or cache issue on Firefox mobile that may cause this? Thank you for your help! 🙏

Hi there! 👋
If Firefox isn’t opening scholarship websites properly on mobile, here are a few things you can try — this issue usually comes down to cache, site scripts, or compatibility settings:
Clear the browser cache and cookies: Go to Settings → Delete browsing data → select Cache and Cookies, then reload the page. Old cached versions of pages can cause layout or loading errors.
Turn off “Enhanced Tracking Protection” temporarily: Some scholarship sites use scripts or trackers that Firefox blocks. Tap the shield icon in the address bar → toggle protection off for that site → reload.
Try desktop mode: Tap the menu (⋮) → choose Desktop site. Some sites aren’t optimized for mobile browsers and load better this way.
Disable add-ons: Go to Settings → Add-ons → Manage your add-ons, and disable any ad blockers or script managers.
hope so this helped you.
