I get PF to work just fine with Chrome and Edge but it's a mess with Firefox. I've cleared the cache, closed Firefox and opened it again. No joy. Anyone else using Firefox here and NOT having problems? Also, FYI, I'm using Windows 10 and Firefox says I have the latest version

For the past few days I get a 403 error when trying to access fedoraforum.org (using Firefox). Is anyone else having this problem?

It seems as though it's not only with latex, but with previewing in general. Sometimes restarting Firefox will fix it for me, but I've restarted it 2x now and nothing. It just doesn't preview. You hit preview, it locks out editing, but doesn't show you what your post looks like

Earlier today, when I saw that Firefox was installing an update when I fired it up, I did my usual groaning facepalm and wondered what I might find broken this time. I've been a faithful Firefox user since 2004, shortly after it appeared on the market. But in recent years, my loyalty has been...

I figured that I would post this in case someone may know the answer. I have a small server at home that is using a self-signed certificate. Firefox used to give a warning about this and then let you accept the certificate. However, newer versions just block the site without being able to...

Hi I just bought a new I5 laptop with Win 7 Pro. I loaded Firefox. But I notice I have problem when I go to some forums and even ordering with Digikey. With Digikey, when I want to delete an item in the cart, it did not respond when I hit the delete key. With diyaudio.com forum, when I want to...

Some pages are so slow for me now that they're essentially unusable. For example this one: https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/tangent-space-in-manifolds-how-do-we-exactly-define.685722/#post-4349806 I've been having a lot of problems with the computer that I'm on now, so at first I thought...

Is it just me or Desmos ruined its formula input? In the past when I typed x, /, 1, +, x I got $\frac{x}{1+x}$. Now I'm getting $\frac{x}{1}+x$. In fact, I can't figure out how to type $\frac{x}{1+x}$ at all. Even if I have $\frac{1}{1x}$ and the cursor is between 1 and $x$ in the denominator...

Hi there. I'm really enjoying the new(ish) firefox, it's almost as close to the perfect browser for me as you can get now, I can zoom around it with ease. However, there is one (small thing) that's annoying me: I have pinned my favorite pages up so that whenever I open firefox it loads them...

I realize HTML isn't strictly a 'coding language' or so I've heard. I have a good friend who has a site he needs to prevent users from 'right clicking and copy'. Its a guitar tab site and he has spent relentless hours transcribing a band whos songs are far from easy. So to prevent, to a certain...

Create my own browser? I like firefox and all, but I can't get it to be PERFECT for me..

My login cookies (for sites like, say, physicsforums.com) seem to last only ~5 minutes instead of the usual long duration (1 year, in the case of PF). This started happening exactly when Firefox updated to version 3. This hasn't been a problem with my other computer which has been running FF3...

I'd like an opinion on the browser, Opera. I happen to like it, but I'm wondering how good it actually is in your opinions? If Firefox has any significant advantages? I have dial up, so I don't have much bandwidth.
