Firefox and YouTube push notifications

So, I've migrated from Chrome to Firefox, and it's great, but I have a couple of issues now. One of them is with web push notifications from Google. First, I had an issue with notifications not showing up at all (or maybe they do show up, but the timeout is short and I miss them), but I've solved that with this in about:config set to tru:
dom.webnotifications.requireinteraction.enabled
Now, notifications do stay on until I click them, but when I click them, all they do is close, disappear. And I'm talking only about YouTube notifications, when I get them from other websites, they work fine, I click on them and the proper link opens.
Any ideas how to solve this?a

how do i avoid showing layout in internet explorer mobile

I honesty don't know how to put this. In mango version of windows phone internet explorer shows a black semi transparent layer when a link is tapped how can I avoid this.
Well, I do clearly understand what you are telling, but unfortunately, you can't avoid that. It is simply an indication that the link has been clicked. For usability sake.
This is for existing web-pages/sites. But if you are trying to develop an web-app using PhoneGap or something else, then you can change these links as JavaScript/jQuery events instead, and that should probably avoid it.

Why does the Flattr popup covers the button in firefox?

I have manually implemented the Flattr button to my site.
In Firefox (Windows) the "popout" covers the button so one can't press it.
Any other browser renders the popout in the correct place. Can someone confirm this? Or is it a conflict on my site?
Since you don't mention which site is yours I'm left to speculate on the reasons for this and if I do then I think it is that your body-element doesn't start at the top left of your browser and that therefor positioning of the popout fails due to browsers inability to correctly account for offset body elements.
We've had reports of people experiencing this problem in eg. WordPress where the admin-bar that's showed when a user is logged in pushes the entire site down 20 pixels or something and makes the position of the popout be of by 20 pixels. Could it be something similar for you - that you're logged in in Firefox and not in other browsers?
As far as I know there's no workaround for this limitation - eg. jQuery can't account for it either.
Good thing though: If your layout has a body with an offset or something else that makes the popout not work for you you can disable it by setting popout 0 in the settings of the button.

firefox addon, transparent floating panel

I'm developing a firefox addon and would like to have a fixed position (relative to the browser) semitransparent panel with 3 icons shown at the corner of every browser content area. These buttons will have to be able to communicate with a site that is not the site shown.
I know it would be possible to inject a fixed position div to html but I want the buttons to communicate with external site when pressed and also query information when they are loaded so I think that would violate same origin policy. This wouldn't work with image or other direct media urls either.
What would be the easiest way to create the floating icon panel?
After about of week of work I found it. Here is the answer, I hope this helps someone else:

The above adds the panel, transparency is not working (at least not in linux what I work with) because of the following bug. Sigh... opened in 2007 and not closed in 2012.

edit2: I ended inserting html data to the body of the document using files from extension folder. Works very well including transparency.

Is it possible for a Windows 7 Gadget to bring itself to the top?

I am developing a monitor gadget that monitors production exceptions (by making JSONP Ajax requests).
Most of the time the information is not of interest and I wish for it to be behind other windows.
However, when an exception occurs, I would like for the gadget bring itself to the top of other windows to let me know of the problem.
Is this possible, does anyone know? I have a feeling not... is there another way that people can suggest? Or is it that windows gadgets are not really suitable for this sort of thing.
Thanks.
The answer is no.
However, I have managed to achieve the effect I wanted. Namely I set the gadget to be "always on top" and then have a minimized state that shrinks the gadget down to the smallest it can be and sets the background to an icon (surrounded by transparency). This give me an unobtrusive icon that I can dock into the top right of the screen.
Then, when an event occurs that I want to display, I have a Maximize() method in JS that restores the width/height of the gadget and shows some content (I actually use jQuery's animate method to do this which gives a nice "expansion", similar to the dock/undock transition).
Not sure it this is available for gadgets but on Windows machines you can use the Notification area. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa511448.aspx
