Hello,

I tried under multiple versions of Firefox, make XMLHttpRequest requests from local files but this does not work.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Make an html file with XMLHttpRequest
2.Run it on Firefox
3.
Actual Results:  
It doesn't work

Expected Results:  
To advance the development of Web 2.0, it would be desirable if it works.

Concernant les ActiveX, sachant que vous ne les acceptez pas et qu'il faut tout de même avancer, j'ai une idée à vous suggérer.

Créez un gestionnaire de profils de sites dans lequel le client pourra paramétrer les options qu'il désire activer ou non, telles que la définition d'un dossier lié au site ou au moins pour des fichiers de scripts locaux dans lequel il serait possible d'écrire et de lire des fichiers.

Sorry, comments in french :-s

On the ActiveX, knowing that you do not agree and he must still move forward, I have an idea you suggest.

Create a profile manager for sites where the client can configure the options it wishes to activate or not, such as the definition of a file related to the site or at least for local files from scripts where it would be possible to write and read files.

My English is very poor but if one of your developers understand French, I invite you to read the following topic:
