Tabs does not display its content (need to switch between tabs several time to force refresh)
My problem appear since the firefox version 40.0.3 was installed on my computer (Ubuntu).
I usually use several tabs, and now when I click on one, it append very often that the tab does not display its content (just keep the previous tab content). The work around is to switch several time until the tab "update" its content; or to scroll down to force it to refresh the display. I also notice that when the problem occurs, if i move my mouse over the screen, the underlying elements appears sometimes...
I have already try to restart in "Safe mode" but it does not change anything to the problem! :(
Thank in advance for any help.

Thanks for help but as far as I understand, the link talk about *bootstrap* not *Firefox*... so I can't "modify" any code since I just surf on the web and try to get the content in several tabs...
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problem.
See "Creating a profile":
- https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
- http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.
Try to disable IPv6 (check for other possible causes as well).
