Options & Reports UI does not work in Firefox
Running latest Firefox (Developer Edition 69.0b9) and when I open the Options popup or try and do a freeform report the popup renders like the following image:

Re: Options & Reports UI does not work in Firefox
The developer edition is not the latest version of Firefox. It's a beta build and in Mozilla's own words it is "an unstable testing and development platform".
When I test the page using the latest release beta 69.0b13 (64-bit) the options menu and aircraft list are displayed normally.

Re: Options & Reports UI does not work in Firefox
I've now installed the 'release' version of Firefox, which calls itself 68.0.2 and I have the same issue there and the version of FF Developer Edition I have is 69.0b13 and I have the same issue still.agw wrote: ↑Wed Aug 14, 2019 12:20 amThe developer edition is not the latest version of Firefox.

I also grabbed the 'Firefox Beta' which shows up as 69.0b13 and I have the same issue.
I'm not really sure where to go from here, any version of FF I still have the issue.
If it matters at all this is in the about for VRS:

Re: Options & Reports UI does not work in Firefox
I've been using Firefox as the main browser during development for a few months now. Never seen that issue. The Linux VM that I test with is running Ubuntu 18.04, updating Firefox on there to latest on apt-get gives me 68.0.2 and that's rendering the release build of 2.4.3 no problems.
The thing is the options page is using JQueryUI which has not changed in aeons. It's nothing fancy or cutting edge, it works with every modern browser that I've tried it with. If Firefox were genuinely having an issue with rendering JQueryUI controls then the problem would most likely lie with them, not with the site.
On top of that the list view is rendered as a standard HTML table, albeit with some CSS applied. It's even more basic than the options page.
Given that you can't render the site whichever version you run makes me suspect that you either:
a) Have some custom content that is messing about with the CSS. If you have the custom content plugin installed then disable it and see if that helps.
b) Your Firefox installation is knackered. Try getting rid of it entirely, reboot to make sure no lingering vestiges remain and then reinstall maybe? Are you installing using the distribution's package manager or using bundles you're downloading off a site? Maybe go for the package manager version if you aren't already?
If you have other machines on the network, e.g. a tablet, then you could try fetching the desktop page over the network and seeing if it works OK from there. The LAN address of the desktop page can be shown on the server's main screen, adjust the dropdowns under the list of clients.
Have you tried pressing F12 to get the console window up and seeing if there's any messages in the console window? You might get warnings about a missing .TS and .MAP file, you can ignore those, likewise if you're using Google Maps then it might say that it's fetching a later version of the map than the one requested. But you should not get any errors, if you see any then let me know what they say (and definitely disable the custom content plugin to see if they go away).
Maybe the splitters have gone a bit weird? You could try resetting the site's settings - go to the settings page off the server main screen (see the dropdowns below the connected clients list) and on there choose export settings, keep a copy of the text that appears just in case you want to put the settings back, and then click the button to remove all settings. Then go back to the main site, reload and see if that cures it.
If clearing the site's settings does the trick then if you could email me a copy of the exported settings from before you reset them then I can import those and see if I can reproduce the issue.

Re: Options & Reports UI does not work in Firefox
I do have some custom content but disabled it throughout testing and the issue persisted (cleared cache on the browser too once disabling the content) - So it's not that.
Possible? But I tried a portable version of firefox (without FF Sync enabled) and this has persisted over an entire PC re-install.agw wrote: ↑Fri Aug 16, 2019 12:32 amb) Your Firefox installation is knackered.

I had not tried this, but there is one error when you open the options UI, and a second error once it's been closed for a few seconds.agw wrote: ↑Fri Aug 16, 2019 12:32 amHave you tried pressing F12 to get the console window up and seeing if there's any messages in the console window?
