When I open a new tab and click on a bookmark, the url loads in the location bar and then goes blank. The cursor stays in the location bar and I have to click on the new page before it moves. How do I get the website name to appear automatically in the location bar when I open a new tab. I have Status-4-evar installed and although it worked when I first used it, it no longer does.

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

You can try to disable OMTC and leave hardware acceleration in Firefox enabled.

  • about:config page: layers.offmainthreadcomposition.enabled = false

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.

I actually fixed it a different way. Uninstalled Firefox that I had installed on 11/5/14 and then downloaded the current version, which is different because it has Yahoo as the default search engine and a box to choose others. Then installed Status-4-evar add-on and, voila, everything works as it should. The site names are in the location box and the new tab pages are blank, just as I wanted.

Thanks for your help!
