Steps to Reproduce

  1. Enter "Top Sites" section menu and click "Add Top Sites"
  2. Expand form by selecting "Use a custom image..."
  3. Fill out form with any custom image URL
  4. Preview

Actual Behavior

  1. Firefox always responds with "Valid URL required"

Expected Behavior

  1. Firefox loads the image from the specified URL

It even happens with 180x180 PNGs that Firefox normally automatically picks up from the apple-touch-icon header link tag.

I couldn't reproduce the exact error. However I had a similar erroneous behavior. In my case when I am adding a top site with a custom image, the image doesn't load in the new tab.

I couldn't reproduce the exact error. However I had a similar erroneous behavior. In my case when I am adding a top site with a custom image, the image doesn't load in the new tab.

Actually it takes a fair amount of time to load the new image so now it works perfect. In any case if I couldn't reproduce the original bug

Cannot reproduce the issue following the comment 0 steps, works for me on Win 10, Mac 11 using 91.0a1 2021-07-05. Please reopen if there is still a scenario which can reproduce this issue.
