Okay, if you want reproduce the issue go download XG Firewall virtual appliance, and follow the guide "Sophos Firewall OS virtual and software appliances Getting started guide" to install it in a virtual environment.

Go to VPN section and try to create an IPSEC tunnel, you will find the checkbox with no blue highlight and event if you click on the checkbox the check symbol doesn't show up.

this is a screenshot for the normal state.

Hi,

This another comparison between Firefox 76 and Firefox 79.

Is the box checked if you disable styles on the page? This is just for testing, not a desirable way to browse, but it would help indicate whether the page's custom style rules are incompatible, or whether there is a problem with the form:

  • if the classic top menu bar is not displayed, tap the Alt or F10 key to display it
  • View > Page Style > No Style

To revert that after testing:

  • View > Page Style > Basic Page Style

Hello,

Yeah, the box checked after disable styles on the page

Okay, while the page is using its programmed styles, if you right-click on the checkbox and choose Inspect Element, then Firefox should open the Developer Tools panel, usually in the lower part of the tab. With the <input> selected in the left panel, there should be a Rules panel on the right that shows what the site is doing to style it. You might be able to check and uncheck each style property box to see which one(s) are causing the checkmark to be invisible. Or it might be a combination of things.

You can also check the Web Console for possible related messages.

Hello,

Also, the bootstrap file is accessible via web.

Those css properties refer to disabled (read-only) checkboxes. You should not be able to change its state.

This is probably due to fact that the :read-only CSS pseudo-class have become available in Firefox 78. So the only thing that has been changed it's a style, and not a functionality of this page. And now the style in Firefox should be the same as in other browsers.

more options

Okay, Firefox 78 started recognizing the rules in the two screenshots:

  • Before Firefox 78: input:read-only was ignored, had to use input:-moz-read-only
  • Firefox 78+: input:read-only rules are applied

(https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Web/CSS/:read-only)

The value of that checkbox is locked and can't be changed, so the first rule changes the background to off-white and the second changes the border to gray. However, the text color of the checkmark is light, so it becomes extremely hard to see. The rule really should fix the text color, too.

more options

You might be able to override the color changes using style rules inserted into the page with the Stylus extension or an optional userContent.css file.
