I am using a website that has a show/hide text toggle. When I click the show button, it opens a new blank tab. I tested this on google chrome as well and it works properly. There must be a setting in firefox to correct this but I don't know what it is.

Such a hide/show action is usually done via a JavaScript onclick event. If you get a new tab or window then this would suggest that the onclick isn't working and that the href is used and opens the new tab.

You could check via the right-click context menu in the Inspector if there is an 'ev' button appended to this link (button).


You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:

You can reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.

  • Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
  • Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
  • Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)

Clear the cache and remove cookies only from websites that cause problems.

"Clear the Cache":

  • Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"

"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:

  • Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: "Show Cookies"

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

  • Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window
