I have a problem with a bookmark i want to drag in. On a website i have used for many years there's this one bookmark that's like an extension for a website. Thing is, it works perfect on other search engines but now when i switched i want it here on firefox too! I can't drag it in the bookmarks tab thing. It's a very long javascript code, but it's very useful. could anyone please help me fix this problem?

middle mouse button isnt working since update.

i had it so that a middle click on it would open a new tab to the right of the other tabs.

i have looked and checked browser.tabs.opentabfor.middleclick and its TRUE.

any suggestions. it is just since update i'm sure of that.

Can I please get an explanation for this

link text

When I click in the search field, outside of the text, I only want to bring the search field into focus. I don't want it to highlight anything.

When I single click on a word, I'm trying to edit, 'not 'highlight.

When I double click on a word, I'm want to highlight only that word. A triple click would highlight everything.

Is that possible?

Altering these to false does nothing: browser.urlbar.clickSelectsAll , browser.urlbar.doubleClickSelectsAll

This has been going for the past 11 years or so.

I've been using Firefox on my Windows tablet (Win10) for years. After I installed version 138.0, my On Screen Keyboard (OSK) keeps popping up. Very Annoying! The OSK pops up every time I change tabs, or click a control like a drop down menu or check box on a web page or in the Firefox UI. Seems like the Firefox developers may be working on this problem because in version 138.0 clicking on a text input box did NOT bring up the OSK, but in version 138.0.1 clicking on a text input box does bring up a the OSK, but clicking other controls and switching tabs still brings up the OSK. Other applications on my tablet only bring up the OSK when I click a text input field.

Under about:config I tried setting ui.osk.enabled = false. That does not help. Seems that another OSK preference was non-default, but I changed it back to default, not sure which one.

Help would be much appreciated.

Are you satisfied with the way it behaves? Do you find the tool awkward to use? Extremely sensitive to movement during capture. Tends to jump around, for lack of a better term. I just tried to copy a portion of a page, and during the in the attempt, it jumped to the bottom of the page, and there was no way to adjust back, so i have to start over.

The other day I wanted to save a full page, but both buttons would only "Save visible". No scroll.

Why is the no option to save in another format? The help article here says you can convert it afterwards.

Hasn't they been enough time to make a few small refinements.

Can you suggest an addon that will do the same jobs better?

Dear Firefox Team,

I hope this message finds you well. I would like to suggest a small but useful enhancement to the Firefox interface that I believe would improve user experience and accessibility.

Currently, in the "Customize Sidebar" section, the available tools are limited to a few items such as AI Chat, Tabs from Other Devices, History, and Bookmarks. I believe it would be very helpful to include "Downloads" as an additional sidebar tool.

This would allow users to quickly access their recent downloads without needing to go through the menu or use shortcuts. It adds convenience and aligns well with the purpose of the sidebar — offering quick access to frequently used features.

Thank you for your time and for continuously improving Firefox. I look forward to seeing future updates! Warm regards, Julabeeb a firefox user, developer, and contributor

i have tried putting YouTube both from bookmarks and fem desktop to my Firefox menu bar and it will not go I am afraid to refresh Firefox because i am afraid to lose all my bookmarks and add on is that the only way to do it? please help me if you can i have not uninstalled Firefox but have reinstalled over what i have and still nothing I am baffeled

in FF 137.02 Win11Pro there is no reopen previous session option in the history menu, even though in settings, history, "firefox will" is set to remember history. We tried reinstalling FF. No luck.

Is there a way to reopen the previous session?

Has that feature been deleted?

I'm experiencing an issue with the drag and drop functionality in my browser that's significantly affecting my workflow. Previous behavior:

I could drag any selected text to any area of the browser window to open a new search tab I could lightly drag links anywhere to open them in new tabs

Current behavior:

Now I must drag content specifically to the tab bar at the top to open new tabs This extra precision required is frustrating and slowing down my browsing

I haven't intentionally changed any settings, and this change happened suddenly. This functionality was extremely useful for me as I frequently need to open multiple tabs while researching. Has anyone else experienced this issue? Is this a new "feature" or a bug? Most importantly, does anyone know how to restore the previous drag and drop behavior? Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions!

I am just writing to tell you that you can go stick your latest "new and improved" feature (note extreme sarcasm) in AI chatbots where the Sun don't shine.

Someone tell me is Mozilla trying to destroy Firefox?

Are they trying to get people to move to Edge, Chrome, Safari or Opera?

If they are they are going the right way about it!

I am getting sick to the back teeth of Mozilla forcing their crap down our throats.

I have lost count the number of times I have had to go into about:config to turn off the latest crap FX has forced down our throats over the years.

None of us asked for AI Chatbots which is one of the worst ideas ever invented.

I already had to delete Microsoft CoPilot from my PC last September now I had to do it with FX.

Everybody do this and it works:

Goto address bar and type in about:config, goto the search bar and type chat and where it says browser.ml.chat.enabled change from true to false and you will be rid of those garbage chatbots.

I have done that for every forced you you feature FX has added over the years like Pockets and Screengrab and all the other garbage they have added over the years.

Now there is no "other" category for topic of question. This concerns display, layout, and functionality.

Having a huge problem with Firefox recently. It looks and behaves like Microsoft type display, security, and function all around has been superimposed on Firefox. Every time I need to do something online my effort is first redirected to trying to fix configuration problem on Firefox.

It is bad enough to have to do battle with windows 11 to config the layout and display so that it is functional instead of going from one screen to another and another when there is an issues that needs configuring, which always then requires a search and fixing it in Microsoft registry (if possible). Now that is happening with the Firefox display, layout, and functionality which requires a search try to find a page where some kind soul has provided a fix for FF via about:config (if possible).

My brower updated to 136.xx in mid-march after I had already disabled auto update. However, have not had problems until recently, so it seems to be something the microsoft system has started doing to compromise the configured functionality of Firefox. It is no impossible to update or change passwords because "microsoft security" has taken over. Did Microsoft buy controlling interest in Firefox, or what.

Today The layout has started being a problem too. Very elementary without features, with huge words and images although I have changed nothing in Firefox. It is as dumbed down and tedious as Windows 10 when it was brand new. I use a desktop and I really don't want it to look and behave with the limits, and appearnace of a large sized mobile phone screen.

No Firefox update since mid March is showing, however something is interferring with the Firefox display, layout, and functionality. I can only guess it is the Windows 11 OS . . .

Is there a way to protect Firefox from Microsoft meddling with the Firefox configuration?

I have not yet tried to stop enhanced security in each website that is a problem (though most of them currently are, not simply individual websites). Perhaps that is the problem . . . at this problem it needs to be universally disabled if that IS the problem. All the additional security being piled on is simply hoops to jump through for users. We all know it does not stop the pros who are intent on hacking as a team sport. I really do not want to have to fool around signing to a Firefox account, and getting a code to be able to complete the signin to be able configure the brower to simply access the internet.

Starting to think FF, including support, is being managed and responded to by A.I. - which always ends up being a programmer problem that creates the limits. Intentional or not is the question.,,,,

Hoping some kind souls have found solutions, or locations to solutions they are willing to share.

Thanks - from redirected and disenchanted in ABQ

I've been missing scrollbar arrows on my Mozilla Firefox browser for a long time now, which makes browsing and engaging with various websites more difficult. Can anyone tell me how to restore the scrollbar arrows?
