FFN down again?

Have you tried tossing your cookies? Sometimes it helps with weird issues like that. Purging bad data, I guess.

Tried that.  Didn't work.

Maybe I should consider upgrading Firefox...and yet I still dislike FF's constant fast-pace "new version every few weeks" cycle (too much too fast, in my view)...

Try Seamonkey instead, Tennie. It's the same codebase on the browser, but they only update the suite every few months.

On the GUI end of things, if you do end up upgrading Firefox, I suggest installing this theme.  It makes Firefox look decent, as opposed to the new look.
As for FF.net, these three Greasemonkey scripts help quite a bit, in my opinion.  (I will admit that I had to allow all the scripts too, which is annoying.)

Well, it looks like FFN is now displaying properly even in Firefox, but I'd still at least keep the scripts in mind, should there come a time when I'll actually need them!

As for the Firefox release schedule: try the ESR. That does still release a new version every six weeks, but it's a "minor" or "micro" version, including only bugfix and/or security updates. The ESR resynchronizes to match the "rapid release" version once a year.

That's offtopic, though, so if further discussion is desired it should be done elsewhere.

Are people having trouble trying to upload new documents onto FF.net these days? I can't copy-and-paste, much less do a file upload.

Rerezing the topic again to ask if anyone has had any problems today with accessing the site due to "invalid certificates" according to my browser.

Yeah, it looks like the HTTPS "upgrade" is breaking them again.

They broke something with their SSL cert, or the CA that issued it is having some kind of issues.

This should be a workaround, but its not something id be comfortable recommending leaving active.
Chrome appears to accept it.

It appears to be fixed now.
