How do I designate the CA Certificate for a web site. I have the private CA Certificate installed. It is required to access my institution's secure pages. It works with other browswers (Chrome). But Firefox gives me this " 403 - Forbidden: Access is denied. You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied." I will get that message in other browsers if I fail to identify the certificate. How do I select the desired credentials in Firefox?

Hi

Do you have the certificate installed on your Android device?

Yes. And my Chrome browser will successfully find the certificate. I would prefer to use Firefox, however it fails to find the certificate.
