Open a new tab, go to
http://www.cnn.com/money/2004/12/14/technology/personaltech/google_books/index.htm
wait for the page to fully load and close the tab.
After that, all controls seem active, but the main screen is gray, and if you
had more than one tab open, the tab bar is locked. The only way i found to
"reactivate" the tab bar (besides restarting the browser) was opening a new tab.
The problem doesn't affect you if you open the link and close the tab without
seeing it's content.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open a new tab
2.go to
http://www.cnn.com/money/2004/12/14/technology/personaltech/google_books/index.htm
3. wait for the page to fully load and close the tab.

Actual Results:  
tabs get locked.

Expected Results:  
go to the previous tab and not lock the tab bar i guess :)

Maybe bug 272471 has got something to do with it?

Indeed the bug went away (for me) after I replaced this dll with the one from
the 20041208 build (1208 wfm, 1209 & 1210 lock and crash, 1211 -> 1215 lock)
Attached file Testcase — 
This testcase is derived from:
http://www.rfimusique.com/siteFr/Player/player.aspx?inc=player_2014.inc
which also shows this bug.
Basically, the code that causes this bug is this: <body
onunload="hsi=screen.width;">
Flags: blocking-aviary1.1?
As Coldfusion wrote in Peter(6)'s 20050108 thread, the bug is not present in the
20040107 buid (same for me)
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8a6) Gecko/20050107
Firefox/1.0+
its fixed in 2005-01-07-07-trunk
I don't know if this is the same issue, but I'm seeing a locked tab and crash
the  last 2 nights with the OSX build and captured the code from one page that
spawns a locked tab, so here it is:

Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8a6) Gecko/20050108
Firefox/1.0+

(This was hidden on an outdated PDA/Palm page I came across, on which all the
info was over a year old --seems abandoned?  But the same freeze of a single tab
and crash is happening a lot with many pages as of the last few nights)

href="http://www.digitalpoint.com/tools/ad-network/" />ad_network.php file needs
updating</a>
it doesnt stick for me, but im using:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8a6) Gecko/20050108
Firefox/1.0+
why is this bug still open? its obvious its fixed.
Well, comment 8 still mentions the problem. Maybe someone with a Mac OS X can
recheck this with the latest nightly trunk build?

By the way, I saw the bug in the 2005-01-06 build, but not anymore in the
2005-01-07 build.
Oops! I meant comment 10.
then someone needs to change it from a windows xp bug to a macosx bug.
Now, I've seen this bug happening here, using a 2005-01-11 build (windows).
http://tennis.quickfound.net/wta_results_2005/sydney_canberra_hobart_results_2005_index.html
It doesn't happen sometimes, not all the time.
OS: Windows XP → All
Hardware: PC → All
somebody changed the os to all. it needs to be macosx.

and that site doesnt lock my tabs.

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b) Gecko/20050113 Firefox/1.0+
i cant open new tabs sometimes google.com searches - sometimes opening tabs
works sometimes the tabs dont open at all - middle click/ control click/ right
click it will not open a new tab from that page (tab bar isnt locked but new
tabs just wont open and if i reload the page then it works fine). totally
randomly i dont know exact steps to reproduce it (so i dont know how to file a
bug can someone help me?) It also happens on other sites.
Build: latest trunk 17 Jan 2005
OS: Linux i686

I am posting it here because i think it could be related to this bug.
ive never had this bug bug im
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b) Gecko/20050117 Firefox/1.0+
I wasn't able to reproduce this bug using:
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8b) Gecko/20050117
Firefox/1.0+

(checked with the url from comment 0)
fine then, instead of being marked as a macosx bug, it should be marked
resolved/worksforme.
Just confirmed WFM on 01-20-2005 trunk build. So if this works for both Windows
and MacOS X users, can this bug be resolved?
Ok, marking Worksforme.
I too haven't seen this bug since quite some time now. And also not anymore with
the url in comment 16 (and I tried many times).
If someone can reproduce this still with a trunk build, though, then please reopen.

Flags: blocking-aviary1.1?
"Since the update Firefox to version 61.0.2 (64-bit). It often doesn't load the contents of a new tab. The URL https://minecraftapkmod.net/download/ is displayed at the top, but the page does not load."

While Firefox is gaining more and more popularity around the world, there are many people who complain that Firefox frequently fails to load pages on Window 10/8/7 and Mac 10.9/10.10/10.11/10.12/10.13. Also, some of them say that Firefox not loading pages issue appears after finishing an update.

Is there any perfect solution for this issue?

Thanks

Hi,

There is nothing for an admin to do for you to be able to set it up. You would just need to select Quizzes>Locked forms once it's available.

Some accessibility options will still be available to students, but if a student tries to open a new tab or window or exits the quiz, you will receive and email. As a reminder, this works only on managed devices. Here's a link https://bestgamingbeasts.com/white-gaming-mouse/ to the Help Center article.

Thank you
