I can set the size of the text in the page search bar so I can read it without a magnifier. There is no magnification of the URL bar. An obvious ergonomic truth to those who have used Firefox for decades. But outside the common knowledge of cell phone zombie newbie programmers. Their user interface is sub-10-inch screens. So the fix for newbies by newbies is a big hurt on any who are visually impaired. So I stand by my original suggestion. If a web page has a text entry box, auto-switching to another entry box with a different fixed font size is an ergonomic dumb idea. Unless folks with less than 20 20 vision do not matter.
Stop Firefox by default entering text in the address bar from the Firefox home page
Every time I start typing something into the Firefox homepage search bar, by default it switches to entering text into the address bar. I know there are ways to stop this from happening, different in windows to Linus, but it's a particularly shoddy annoying problem which should have been sorted ages ago.
What is the point of the search bar on the main page??? As soon as you begin typing, the cursor jumps to the address bar. Remove or reconfigure the app to use one or the other. Or provide an explanation for the duplicity. It makes the page look sloppy.
I want to type text in the search box, but the text appears on the address bar
I want to type text in the search box, but the text appears on the address bar.I know that I can actually use about:config to set it so that I can type text in the search box instead of in the address bar. But this is inconvenient, it is too difficult to adjust the settings in about:config. So my suggestion is to show this feature on and off in the browser settings, and then let the user choose whether to turn it on or not.
