Firefox Community Forum

My organization uses Box Drive for file storage/transfer. I recently upgraded to an ARM-based PC (Microsoft Surface) which the Box app does not support, forcing me to use a browser to access my files.

When I upload a file to Box via Firefox, it repeatedly uploads the same file until I close the browser. I only noticed this after coming back to the tab and noticing that the PDF I uploaded was on version 1,937 and counting. I tested another file and observed the same behavior.

The behavior persists when using a private window with all extensions disabled.

The bug does not appear to affect Chrome: files upload once as expected.

In Firefox, other services such as Dropbox and Google Drive are not affected, only Box.

Anybody else experienced this and found a solution?

Dear Sirs,

For at least the last two weeks, I have experienced a lot of trouble working with Mozilla Firefox. Just reading my emails is an arduous task.

It crashes, I lose internet connection, it does not "respond," etc., and Symantec Norton 360 cannot find out WHY! I have deleted Firefox and reinstalled it, and it is still unreliable.

Before I have to resort to using another browser, can YOU tell me what is going on. I have a Dell desktop, using Windows 10 Pro (obtained in 2018). Firefox is my default browser. I also have Google Chrome installed.

Please help!

Sincerely yours,

Victoria-Ann Bonanni vnatick@aol.com

Firefox on MacOS in full screen mode makes the black offset between the screen edge and the Firefox window after logging in after MacOS is locked. It fixes itself when you exit the full screen and enter it again.

How to reproduce?

• Open Firefox and enter the full screen mode
• Close your MacBook and wait until it prompts you for your password or touch id
• The Firefox window has black offset between screen edge and the Firefox window, that was not present before
• Exit the full screen and get into it again, and the offset is gone

When I search on the NTP or Homepage, the sidebar/tab-bar expands on my left with the different websites search previews. When I use my mouse to click on one of the suggested sites it does not take me to the website, it goes blank. But when I use the keyboard arrows to choose a site then press enter, only then it opens the website.

Hope I made it clear enough?

Thanks,

I've just updated from Firefox 101.0.1 to Firefox ESR 115.18.0 (I'm still using Windows 7, so can't get a more recent release). I have a program which reads a cURL command from the clipboard then runs cURL repeatedly with slightly modified versions of the command. The command is read from the clipboard rather than pasted into the command prompt window because it may be more than 4096 characters. This no longer works with the updated version of Firefox. Comparing the cURL commands from the two versions of Firefox showed lots of "^" characters had been added. For example "120Months|Yield|RiskScore" had become "120Months^|Yield^|RiskScore". When I edited the cURL command to remove the "^" characters, everything worked like it had before the Firefox update. I suspect this is related to the changes introduced by Bug 1777800. I would like to know whether the problem can be reproduced using up-to-date versions of Firefox and Windows. Starting with web page https://www.trustnet.com/fund/price-performance/t/investment-trusts?norisk=true&PageSize=25 use the network monitor to capture the result of moving to the next page of data, Copy as cURL (Windows) and use the result. Do you get a response containing the data for the next 25 funds or a very small file containing an error message?
