I'm trying to enable javascript on my firefox android mobile device. But when I type the about:config instruction in the address bar, the response firefox gives me is that it can't find that page. Why can't firefox find this page? I need to enable javascript in order to use my trusted Speechify text-to-speech app.

Javascript is enabled all the time in Firefox for Android and it can be disabled only by some addons. Do you have any?

Also about:config is not available in Firefox for Android Release, only the Beta and Nightly test channel builds.

There are a few Extensions that can impact or disable on how JavaScript works in Firefox for Android like these https://addons.mozilla.org/android/search/?q=JavaScript
