It only happens with one particular vendors website. They can't explain it. Most of their web pages work fine. I selected an imbedded link from one page and a new browswer window opens and populates but there is no left margin vertical scroll bar. And there is lots of data below to view. CAnt get there from here.

Can you share the link to the page?

Does it make any difference if you change the zoom level, such as by holding down Ctrl and tapping the + key or the - key a couple of times?

New windows opened by a script can be customized by leaving out some elements. Presumably if they were doing that, they would know. However, just in case, you could prevent sites from removing the scrollbars from popup windows.

(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.

(2) In the search box that appears above the list, type or paste window_o and pause while the list is filtered

(3) Double-click the dom.disable_window_open_feature.scrollbars preference to switch it from false to true.

(The name of this preference is difficult to understand, but it means that Firefox will block the site from turning off scrollbars on a new window if set to true.)

Does that scroll bar appear if you make the browser window wider if that is possible?

This add-on might help; NewScrollbars (aka NoiaScrollbars)

The "NewScrollbars"-extension replaces the default scrollbars of Firefox and Thunderbird with colorized ones
