I can reproduce that with my old profile. When I create a new one ($firefox -ProfileManager -no-remote) it works fine. Looks like something is broken in your recent profile (mine has some old cookies for google ads). You can see the errors on Browser console - in menu Tools -> Web Developer -> Web Console. You may migrate your profile to a new one by hand (copy important files - see a mozilla site for details) or create a new one.

Sorry, your suggestion does not work for me. I even moved my .mozilla directory out of the way to ensure nothing old was in the way and still got the same results. Also, your explanation does not address the fact that upstream firefox (49.0.1) does not have any issue with the site with my regular profile. I see this message in the Web Console when using the Fedora Firefox which I do not see with upstream Firefox: Password fields present on an insecure (http://) page. This is a security risk that allows user login credentials to be stolen.[Learn More] Thanks, Shantanu This message is a reminder that Fedora 24 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 2 (two) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 24. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '24'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 24 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Fedora 24 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2017-08-08. Fedora 24 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
