After upgrading to Firefox 91.0, a few websites don't display properly. For example, the Washington Post Crossword Puzzle page does not have blacked out squares, nor does it show were the cursor is located. What settings do I need to change to get back to the pre-91.0 display?

Hi bguion, as mentioned in the release notes, "Firefox [91] now automatically enables High Contrast Mode when "Increase Contrast" is checked on MacOS."

Is it possible you have that setting?

If so, please try one or both of these two options:

(1) Turn off the system-level setting. This appears to be the most effective workaround.

(2) Disable High Contrast mode in Firefox. See: Disable high contrast mode in Firefox.

For both changes, you might need to Quit Firefox and start it up again to see the normal display.

Any difference?
