Why doesn't Firefox properly display a hair space (U+200A)?

Firefox recognizes most space characters, but not the hair space (U+200A). Why not? IE, Chrome, and Safari handle it just fine.

For me, it displays the same width as an em space (&emsp;,  ). I probably should have mentioned that I’m running Win XP Pro SP3 and FF 4.0 (though I got the same results with FF 3.''x'').

Why doesn't the keyboard display lower case when this is selected?

Why doesn't the keyboard display lower case characters when these are selected?

The same reason physical keyboards have capital letters, easier to read. If the iPad keyboard is in caps you'd know because the Shift key would be colored blue.

Why doesn't Firefox auto-update Flash Player like Chrome does?

For security reasons and less hassle, I like Chrome auto-updates Flash Player. Why doesn't Firefox do this?

Google Chrome has it's own version of the Flash plugin that is apart of the Google Chrome installation files.<br />
So Google needs to do a full update with every Flash release.
Firefox uses the Flash plugin as installed in your Linux distribution,<br />
If your Ubuntu Linux distribution doesn't have an automatic update for Flash then you need to do that manually.

When saving files from the internet, why doesn't Firefox 'know' to put .jpg files in "Photos" and pdf files in "Documents"?

When saving files from the internet, why doesn't Firefox 'know' to put .jpg files in "Photos" and pdf files in "Documents"? IE always saved photos in the "Photos" file and documents in the "Documents" file. Firefox makes me choose every time. Very annoying.

How about if Firefox is programmed like IE in this ONE thing...
When saving files from internet sources, if the file ends in a typical photo extension such as .jpg, .bmp, .tif etc. it defaults to save it in your PHOTOS folder.
When saving anything like a .doc, .pdf etc. it defaults to save it to your DOCUMENTS.
You could still change it to 'desktop' if that if really where you want all your photos and documents... or some other folder that you decide, but DEFAULTS to the LOGICAL folder.
I have carpal tunnel SO bad that even typing this suggestion is painful and having to make the extra click along with moving the mouse EVERY time I want to save something is painful.
ALSO, I shouldn't need a bunch of ADDONS to accomplish this. I tried downloading one and it did nothing. The problem still exists.

Why doesn't Firefox display all photos posted on Facebook?

Firefox will display some, but not all, photos posted by my friends on Facebook. IE8 displays them all. Do I need to reconfigure FireFox settings to see all photos posted on Facebook?

Thanks. "*Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images with the cursor Down key). " fixed the problem.

Why doesn't Firefox see that I have Flash loaded on my computer?

I have Flash 10.1.102.64 loaded on my computer and I can watch youtube videos on Windows IE. I just loaded Firefox 3.0.5 and when I try to watch a youtube video, it tells me I need to install Flash. Why doesn't it see Flash? Do I need to do something first?

Why doesn't Firefox have an ADM/ADMX GPO file?

I've been using Firefox for years, and it's always been my favorite browser. But working in our environment we push Firefox to our users, but we have no control of the software. Things we want to do are; allow pop-ups, disable auto-update, enable certain plug-ins and a few other settings we want configured.
Why is this never tackled by the Firefox development group? I've seen 3rd party ADM\ADMX but they only last for a version and won't work again.
Why won't Firefox do this for the business users? It's been brought up time and again.

hello jlindemann25, discussion and support about enterprise deployment is out of the scope of this forum unfortunately. you'll get a better response if you take this issue to the Enterprise User Working Group mailinglist.

Why doesn't Muse menu display properly in Business Catalyst?

My web site is complete and ready to upload, but the menu will not display properly in Business Catalyst. Have tried multiple times and ways to place the menu and nothing seems to work. I even clear the cache before uploading. I have even tried complete upload as opposed to just the modified files. Nothing works!!! There are no warnings or asset problems. I have even tried putting the menu on a separate layer. I should mention, the menu displays perfectly in "Preview". I should also note that a highly modified menu on the Home page works perfectly! The menu that does not work is on a "Master Page." PLEASE HELP!!!

This is what a typical page is supposed to look like with the "menu" properly shown -
Here is the URL for Business Catalyst that will show how it came out on upload -

Why doesn't Firefox display my inbox contents in Windows Live?

I manage to log into my Windows Live account but once I'm in there nothing responds. I can't open my inbox, compose new emails or anything else...I can only get to my main page. When I click on any of the above I just get a blank white screen and the address bar doesn't change from the main Windows Live page. This does not happen with other browsers like Explorer and Chrome and it also doesn't happen if I access another email account. I have uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it but this doesn't resolve the issue. This problem started when I tried to block some spam emails I was receiving. Could I have blocked myself from accessing this account with Firefox?

Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
To clear cache and cookies do the following:
#Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
#Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
#Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
#From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
#Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.

Why Doesn't iPod Classuc Display Music by Artist & Year?

I have a problem I'm wondering why Apple hasn't addressed this yet. I have all of my music separated by Artist and by Album. I've even went so far as to properly enter in the year that the album was released yet the iPod Classic still refuses to display my music in the order in which it was released.
Meaning ... I have several artists on my iPod and each artist has several albums. However, no matter if you enter in the "year" the album was released in it's ID3 tags (using the iTunes software), the iPod Classic will only display your music by Artist and then it will only list the albums in alphabetical order, not in order by year.
In order to get my music to display by Artist and then by Year, I have to enter the year in the album's name:
(1980) Best Hits
(1981) Year of the Dragon
I think it bites that Apple can't fix this problem.

What a spectacularly rude individual.
The point was no one can give you any help on this except Apple, they would have to alter the iPod interface to do this, hence the link to feedback. Thought I would save some words and just point you that way. In the future I'm not going to touch a key to even do that, but I think your current work around is as close as you are going to get.

Why doesn't Firefox completely uninstall ?

Why does Firefox 22 on a Mac Os not completely uninstall? when I remove the application on the Mac by dragging the application to the garbage and then reinstall, my book marks are still present. Why? All applications should completely uninstall but Firefox does not and it has done this since version 13.
I am aware of the procedure to manual remove the files but this doesn't make sense as if you can manually remove files it should be automated.

Firefox stores your user data and settings (called your ''profile'') in a separate location from the program. Mac doesn't provide an easy way to remove your profile but you can do it manually. See these articles for details:
* [[Uninstall Firefox from your computer]]
*[[Profiles - Where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data]]

Why Doesn't Firefox 34.0.5 Render Any Web Pages - All Are Blank White

I am using Firefox on on W7-SP1 computer and three W8.1 computers
I upgraded to 34.0.5 from 33.1.1. None of the pages on any website render. All pages are just blank white. The Yoono sidebard works. Popup message from Firefox shows..
Steps I took to try and solve problem
1. Disabled all extensions - Did not solve problem
2. Did an uninstall and clean install - Did not solve problem
3. Turned off Web Protection in Bitdefender Internet Sececurity 2015 - Did no solve problem
4. Turned off Web Protection in Malwarebytes 2.03 - Did not work
5. Turned off Protection in Malwarebyes Anti-Exploit - Did not work
I am also using Malwarebytes

Hey,
I really hope I can help some of you poor ones who have that problem because I had it, too! Right after upgrading to Version 34.0.5, no webpages displayed any content but a blank. It annoyed me very much, especially since it's hard to get an earlier Firefox version and seemingly impossible to downgrade. What helped me in the end was:
Disabling one of my add-ons, namely "Privacy Defense".
I had to find out what caused the trouble. So I went to reset my Firefox to the original settings, thereby getting rid of all my add-ons. Webpages were working normally as before. I re-downloaded my old add-ons. Everything worked fine. Until I got to "privacy defense" which doesn't even require a restart of Firefox. When I had downloaded it, no webpages would look any other than blank! So I disabled it - and everything was back to normal. So:
Tools > add-ons > guilty add-on (for me Privacy Defense) > disable it.
It seems as though certain add-ons aren't compatible with this new Firefox version. So check them. (Also, my contrast settings, colours and fonts I had chosen weren't the problem.)
Really hope this helps someone.
Good luck!

Why doesn't firefox close out when I'm done with it and close it; when next I try to open firefox again I get a dialog box telling me firefox is open and to close it or restart my computer? I'm tired of doing that one of more times a day.

1. This happens at least once a day, and sometimes multiple times. Today it's happened twice, thus far. My home page is FoxNews.com and if I leave it up overnight or for longer periods during the day firefox doesn't allow the refresh of the home page it just goes to yahoo 404--error can't find the webpage. Then when I enter FoxNews.com it adds a /error to the url and doesn't allow me to go to MY homepage. So I close firefox and then if I try to reopen it and then I get the dialog box saying firefox is open and to close it or restart my computer. Very aggravating. 2. Also the Adobe flash drive update always fails. 3. Webpages get in loops and fail to load to the point I have to stop and refresh or close out and reopen.

One situation in which Command+w or Ctrl+w might not work is if the "focus" is in a plugin such as the Flash player used on Youtube after you interact with the player controls. Firefox will continue to send the keyboard input to the plugin until you move the focus back to the page. Does that account for any of the problem?
