Firefox users have been complaining about a text-only URL problem for some time now. The issue occurs when users try to open a URL in Firefox that starts with a space character. Instead of displaying the URL, Firefox displays an error message that says “The page cannot be displayed.” This problem seems to be affecting a lot of people, and it’s not clear what’s causing it. Some people have suggested that it might be related to changes made to Firefox recently, but there’s no definitive answer yet. If you’re experiencing this problem, there are a few things you can do to try and fix it. First, make sure your browser is up-to-date. If that doesn’t work, you can try changing your browser settings. You can try disabling add-ons or extensions, or changing the default search engine to Google instead of Yahoo! If none of those solutions work, you might need to contact your computer manufacturer for help. Whatever steps you take, make sure to let us know about them in the comments section below! ..
