• FF at Amazon.com

    I'm viewing a product page at Amazon and see a short description of the reviews: on a line - average score, some of 5 stars colored, a "v" that
    opens more details mouse touches it, total number of reviews, etc. I
    hover the mouse on the "v" and I see a review breakdown by number of
    stars and, at the bottom, "See customer reviews >". I left click on that bottom line and nothing happens. If I right click instead and select the option to open in a new tab, it does. What is going on here?

    My machine is a relatively new Windows 11 Pro desktop and otherwise
    functions properly. I have no downloaded extensions, themes, or plugins,
    only what Mozilla stuffs in its deliveries. FF V143.0.3. This is not a
    new problem. Any fixes would be most appreciated.

    The customer reviews are below the section "Customers who bought this
    item also bought", if the steaming mound of javascript doesn't take you
    to the relevant anchor, just scroll down, nobody is going to debug
    Amazons page for free.

    At the end of that line, in brackets is the number of ratings, left
    click on the number and it takes you to the ratings section ...

    That works - thanks. As your prior comment, I'm curious why you think
    it's Amazon rather than FF that's making the mistake. The URL at "the
    bottom line" is a reference to a label with the :+label at its end. Do
    you have any evidence that it's Amazon with zany code?
