How to avoid Firefox preventing 'viber://forward?text='? - firefox

I'm trying to put a viber share link on my site, it looks like that:
Share me
It works on Chrome but neither on Firefox.
I get a message in the console:
Prevented navigation to “viber://forward?text=https://...../” due to an unknown protocol.
How to make it work on Firefox?
Comments:
I've made some checking and found that it works on windows normally(win10x64, Viber of course should be installed). In my case, I use Fedora32 and Firefox seems doesn't see the Viber app and prevents navigation to it.

IT Hit WebDav protocol installer fails with Firefox

I am using the latest version of Firefox (57.0.4) to test my IT Hit WebDav server implementation. When I attempt to open a file other than MS Office I expect to be prompted to install the protocol installer. Rather than being prompted I get a dialog that says I need to install something from the Windows App Store. I see the same behavior with Edge.
Both Chrome and IE are behaving as expected. It appears to be supported by Firefox.
I also tested using the Ajax browser on Firefox and it fails as well.
Thanks!
The issue with Firefox is fixed in the IT Hit WebDAV Ajax Library v5.
You can find a detailed answer about why the protocol app is not detected and the callback is called here.

error parallax effect in firefox but works on google chrome

I need your help my website is not functioning properly on firefox browser but in edge, chrome and opera and safari it works only firefox is not functioning properly
Firefox Browser
Google Chrome Browser
I would recommend setting up all your projects in Xampp or something similar first before testing it. If you are going to upload to a server you need to replicate the environment locally before you decide whether it is going to work or not. It seems complicated but it is quite simple, you can find out more here. https://www.apachefriends.org/
That said, check your urls, they are not the same for your two different screens, the one is referencing an anchor tag.

Firefox won't change page when trying a different URL

I'm posting this with the hope to find an active Firefox developer to help troubleshoot a nasty bug. When using the Firefox browser with my web application, the page sticks within the tab and doesn't want to change. Clicking links to navigate off the page or just changing the address in the bar doesn't leave the page. This only happens in Firefox. Here's a screencast of the issue.

I can give a developer access (private message) to the application to help troubleshoot this issue. At the moment, we have to tell our clients to stay away from the Firefox browser when using our application or deal with this issue until it is resolved. We have no such problems with Chrome. So far I've been able to replicate this on both windows and linux.
Thanks!

What is the alternative for window.performance.getEntries(); in FireFox and Safari?

IE and Chrome offer window.performance.getEntries(); to get information about performance of entities in a webpage.
In both FireFox and Safari, this command is undefined when I try to use it from the console.
So, my question is: what is the alternative in FireFox and Safari for this functionality?
EDIT:
I'm using this command via Javascript. Hence I need an alternative also for other browsers.
CanIUse says something for resource timing (which is part of what youre asking): http://caniuse.com/#search=resource timing
Also it says
This feature can be enabled in about:config, search for dom.enable_resource_timing flag
By default it is turned off, you'll have to ask your users to switch it on manually, or to write a plugin for this purpose
Now window.performance.getEntries(); works fine in Firefox, but the problem remains for Safari.

Watir-webdriver send the request twice in IE11 on Windows8.1

I am currently writting a test which activates an user account by going to an activation url mentioned in an email.
I ran the test on chrome and firefox and it works fine. When I copy pasted the link in IE manually it works fine.
But when I do the same from the test script in IE, it seems like the request is sent twice.
#browser.goto(url)
I can see that a dialog appears saying the account is activated successfully and within a second another dialog appears automatically saying that the activation link has been used already.
How can I fix this problem?
I am using IE11 with Windows8.1.
Latest watirwebdriver, selenium webdrivers and IEdriver are installed.
Thanks a lot in advance.
