When I try to access websites that I've stored on my local server via MAMP, Firefox only says that "It works". This only happens in Firefox.

I recently upgraded to Mac OS X Yosemite on my desktop and laptop. Due to this upgrade, I was having trouble accessing websites that I was running on my local host server via MAMP. I reinstalled an updated version of MAMP 3.0.7.2 and reset my Apache and MySQL ports, but now when I try to access my local host server on Firefox, rather than showing my index of sites, I only get the message "It works!". This only happens in Firefox. I can access my files in Safari, Opera and Chrome, but not Firefox. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Just a quick update on my original question. I have now discovered that if I type localhost/"the name of one of my websites", Firefox automatically goes to the index page of this site. However, I still can't access my "Index of / " landing page where I can access all of my stored sites on my local host server.
