Looks like user agent sniffing to me. Have you tried creating a different user agent than the one which is default in Pale Moon (28.2.2)? This could solve the problem by tricking the site into thinking you're using another browser other than Pale Moon.

I could provide a user agent you could use for that site, but you didn't state what bit your linux distro is. For a 64 bit linux distro, this user agent might work.

Code: Select all

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:64.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/64.0

(I gather the OP is on PM 27.)

For those that responded i am using Pale Moon version 27.9.4 (64 bit).

As for User Agent I will give that a go once I have read up about how to do it.

Off-topic:
Google is starting to be a "pain in the backside" when it comes to user agent sniffing.

As an example, both in linux and windows SeaMonkey 2.49.4, in the Google search engine site, my backup browser in both linux and windows is SeaMonkey. When using linux Seamonkey, I noticed if I typed in the Google search box in the stand alone site (www.google.com), I could only type a few letters or numbers and then nothing. It seems Google just wants people to use its Chrome browser. Google does not want people using niche browsers and I'm sure Pale Moon and SeaMonkey fall into that category according to Google.

Google has to support the "big well known browsers" like Firefox, Safari (Apple), Edge (Edge is Microsoft) and Internet Explorer. So I had to create a new string for SeaMonkey which is:

Code: Select all

general.useragent.override.google.com

and then create the new user agent for linux SeaMonkey so Google thought linux SeaMonkey was linux Firefox 64.0 and the new user agent I used was the one in my first post:

Code: Select all

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:64.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/64.0

Then when I went to Google using my backup linux SeaMonkey browser, Google thought linux SeaMonkey was linux Firefox 64 and then I could type anything in the Google search field without any problems when I was using 64 bit linux SeaMonkey (2.49.4).

does this trick work for you? viewtopic.php?f=3&t=19044&start=100#p149450

Have yet to venture into changing config but I guess my first step will be to change
general.useragent.complexOverride.moodle to true
and then overwrite an entry with pickaweb.co.uk ??

Chrisp, Because you are using PM 27.9.4, you really should see if the 'trick' linked by roytam1 helps.

And of course I should stress that the v27 milestone has severely limited JavaScript capabilities which can and will cause issues. Please update to the v28 milestone versions building on UXP.
