There is an issue with Youtube integration and Firefox. I cannot see them, they are blocked by Firefox. If I allow Firefox to show non https content in https pages, they show up. My version of Firefox is 38.0.5.
If you don't like Mozilla's direction, then I'd suggest on showing your opinion to them by switching to another browser.

If I allow Firefox to show non https content in https pages, they show up. My version of Firefox is 38.0.5.Firefox is actively starting to drop support of html5 features and other stuff when not connected on a secured connection (https://). See:https://blog.mozilla.org/security/2015/04/30/deprecating-non-secure-http/http://www.infoworld.com/article/2917575/encryption/mozillas-firefox-https-or-bust.htmlThere are no signs of other browsers going as extreme as Firefox on this point, yet. I'd be surprised if they succeed on getting other vendors to as extreme route.If you don't like Mozilla's direction, then I'd suggest on showing your opinion to them by switching to another browser.
This shouldn’t have anything to do with the non-secure HTTP deprecation announcement, which is about future features after a future date.
Mozilla plans to depreciate HTTP by first making "new features... available only to secure websites". Then, at some point it will be "gradually phasing out access to browser features for non-secure websites". A site without HTTPS won't work with HTML5 features in Firefox.Mozilla's plan, therefore, is to break the web for Firefox and hope that convinces developers to get on board with HTTPS.

I thought they had when I saw and glimpsed through the news this past week.Theregister.co.uk had this to say in their article:QuoteMozilla plans to depreciate HTTP by first making "new features... available only to secure websites".

A site without HTTPS won't work with HTML5 features in Firefox.Mozilla's plan, therefore, is to break the web for Firefox and hope that convinces developers to get on board with HTTPS. which implies that they will gradually be less compatible with non-secure websites, and even removing features.And, in the end, it is not much better to just use https. The real security comes when certificates are included in the mix. Prevents site impersonation by rogue parties.
Not sure if this is the right spot but you guys just got a nice shout out on the KSC bus tour.
Checking with Internet Explorer 11, same issue, all text control buttons have no effect other than to pull focus out of the text editor box. So, it seems to be a forum software issue, not a browser issue.
