Bug / unexpected behaviour when pressing Escape in an Edit bookmark dialogue box

Hello. If I press ctrl+D while on an already bookmarked site then the "Edit bookmark" dialogue box appears.

The issue is that pressing Escape to cancel the Edit dialogue box will save any changes made, rather than simply cancelling and discarding any changes.

For example, changing the bookmark's title to "Apricots" then pressing Escape should see the Edit dialogue box be dismissed with no changes made to the bookmark. However instead the bookmark will now have the title "Apricots", as if I had pressed Enter or clicked Save instead.

There also does not seem to be any other way to simply cancel out of the Edit dialogue box? Pressing alt+F4, ctrl+F4 or clicking outside of the dialogue box will also not cancel the edit, but will instead save changes to the bookmark.

I have tested in a new profile but the issue persists.

Does anyone know how to make pressing the Escape key in an Edit bookmark dialogue box behave like a Cancel rather than a Save?

(Fortunately, this is not an issue with the Add bookmark dialogue box for new bookmarks. There, pressing Escape cancels out of the dialogue box without making any changes or saving anything.)

Hello,

For years I've been able to watch a video in one tab and open a new tab. I could hear the video playing while I opened a new tab. Suddenly today the video pauses as soon as I click away to a NEW tab.

Oddly enough, if I have any other tabs already opened, when I first click on one of those, I can then open a new tab without the video pausing. It's only if I go directly from a YouTube video (that's already playing) that it pauses when trying to open a new tab. Odd.

Why is this happening? and so suddenly? At least I have a work around but this is so weird.

Any ideas out there?

Thanks, Andre'a


BTW - Is "Settings" the best topic? or should I've chosen something else (like Performance)?

I have a Google docs on my google account that I access 5-10 times per day. For many years, when I typed the first four characters of the document name Firefox would suggest the document via its autocomplete feature so all I had to do open to the document was press Enter. I learned it via muscle memory. Over the years it saved me a ton of time.

Then about 9 months ago I signed up for insurance from a company whose name starts with the same four characters. Firefox immediately started suggesting the insurance website instead of my document. I don't know why Firefox thinks I'd rather go to this insurance website. My document is bookmarked but the insurance website is not. I visit my document 100X as often as I visit the insurance website.

I've tried to find settings that will bring my document back to the top of the list. The most useful setting I was found was disabling "Browsing History" under "Address Bar - Firefox Suggest". This removed the insurance website from my suggestions, but it did not bring my document back to the top. I found a help document that says that I should be able to remove the insurance website specifically from "Firefox Suggest" by clicking the three dots next to the name in my drop down address bar and select "remove", but for some reason the insurance website doesn't have the three dots next to it (other suggestions listed in the drop down address bar do have the three dots, so I think I'm looking in the right place). I doubt this would help anyway since I have already removed the insurance website from my suggestions and my document still hasn't been restored as the default.

Is there anyway to access more specific settings that would restore Firefox's original behavior?

Are there any plans to make configuration of the setting "network.proxy.system_wpad" available via ADMX (grouppolicy under Windows)? We need to deploy this to 100 computers and I still have no idea how.

Feature was introduced in FF 125: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-enterprise-125-release-notes We currently use 128.4.0esr.

We need this configuration, so Firefox also uses "automatic configuration" which is set in system settings.

I'm migrating a bunch of PDFs from an old Windows 8.a computer to a new Windows 11. I located a matrix under settings that offers some choice as to how FF was to handle downloaded PDFs. There are three options: Save, Open, Ask. I want to save only (Opening slows down the migration process). I selected Save in the drop down menu, but FF continue to Open. Can't continue until I solve this problem.

Thanks

Hey There,

Hope everyone is doing great!

The body search feature is missing in my Thunderbird. Searching for any text that I know appears in a body also returns no results. How do I enable this?

Please let me know if it's a setting that prevents this option from showing up. ( Just a thought, if it is some setting, could it be grayed out instead with a tool tip text to show why it's grayed out instead of removing the option completely? )

Cheers, Tom

I recently switched from FF 116 to ESR. (I wasn't allowing updates until I had video difficulties) I just wanted my browser to work and be simple; I hate changes, especially some of the things Mozilla bombards us with in updates. (I wish I could choose what I want and not be forced to accept all of it.) To solve my video problems, I had done a refresh with extreme trepidation and that didn't help, so I decided to be on a new version of FF/ ESR because I was nervous about the latest FF. I only understand tweaking in config and adding extensions. I don't know anything about CSS, and I don't want to. :) I did change the density setting in config and chose that via 'customize toolbar.' The density is not compact enough for me. Before in regular FF, I had a tight look to my bookmarks as they dropped down. Now the vertical spaces are wider; the density is not enough. I can't find a way to make it 'tighter' like I had it before in regular FF. (I don't feel like switching back. Sigh...) Are there some other settings or an app that can make the change I am looking for?

(I can't take a screen shot because as soon as I touch a place away from the drop down, the drop down disappears.)

I'm using a X13 ThinkPad with 1920x1080 resolution on a 13'3 display with Linux (Arch) and XFCE desktop. For the best results I've increased the XFCE's DPI to 134 and fonts sizes to 10. It looks like the fonts of the size ~13 without DPI change. It's fine, and applications like Firefox like those settings.

In Thunderbird I've set the font size (interface) to 12 and in Settings the default font sizes for Latin and Other Writing Systems to 12 (both) and finally the interface font as well as plain text email and HTML e-mails without font sizes specified explicitly look natively and perfectly.

But there are some senders using clients that generate HTML e-mails and specify the font explicitly as 'font-size=12pt' in their body by default. The same as my 12 so everything should be fine. Unfortunately font in those e-mails is really HUUUUGE! I'm wondering if there is some setting that allows custom scaling but only the HTML messages. Or some pt to px custom scaling for HTML? Or some maximal size allowed in HTML?
