Firefox 114 for developers
This article provides information about the changes in Firefox 114 that affect developers. Firefox 114 was released on June 06, 2023.
Changes for web developers
Developer Tools
- Fixed an issue where the Accessibility Inspector did not correctly show ARIA roles on elements, which affected how landmark roles were displayed. Roles that cannot be mapped to ARIA use a Gecko internal role name (Firefox bug 1572512).
HTML
No notable changes.
CSS
-
The
:lang()
pseudo-class now uses string-matching semantics (including*
wildcards) for matching language codes rather than prefix-matching semantics. Additionally, comma-separated lists of languages are now supported for matching multiple languages (Firefox bug 1121792). - The
-webkit-text-security
property that lets you replace characters with shapes is now supported. You can now control the rendering of text security using this property (Firefox bug 1826629). - The
infinity
andNaN
constants are now supported inside thecalc()
function (Firefox bug 1830759).
JavaScript
-
Workers now support loading ECMAScript modules.
You can load modules into workers by specifying the
{type: "module"}
option in theWorker
andSharedWorker
constructors. Worker scripts can also statically or dynamically import modules usingimport
andimport()
, respectively (Firefox bug 1812591). - Worklets can now use
import
to statically import ECMAscript/JavaScript modules (Firefox bug 1812591).
SVG
- The
crossorigin
attribute is now supported inimage
andfeImage
elements (Firefox bug 1240357).
APIs
Window.print()
now opens a print dialog on Firefox for Android, allowing the current document to be printed (Firefox bug 1809922).-
The WebTransport API is now supported, which includes the following interfaces:
WebTransport
,WebTransportBidirectionalStream
,WebTransportDatagramDuplexStream
,WebTransportReceiveStream
,WebTransportSendStream
,WebTransportDatagramDuplexStream
andWebTransportError
. For more information see Firefox bug 1692754, Firefox bug 1818754, and Firefox bug 1791835. CSSImportRule.supportsText
can now be used for getting anysupports()
conditions that were specified when using the@import
at-rule (Firefox bug 1829590).
Removals
-
The deprecated and non-standard
mozImageSmoothingEnabled
property is permanently removed. See theimageSmoothingEnabled
property for smoothing in scaled images (Firefox bug 1228850).
WebDriver conformance (WebDriver BiDi, Marionette)
WebDriver BiDi
- Added support for the commands
input.performActions
andinput.releaseActions
, which can be used to emulate user input for interacting with elements on web pages. Similar to Marionette all the available input sources of the WebDriver specification are supported, which arekey
,pointer
, andwheel
(Firefox bug 1832380). - Added support for custom browser to client messages, which allows to send a
script.message
event from within a script formerly installed viascript.addPreloadScript
(Firefox bug 1824187). - Added support for the
serializationOptions
parameter forscript.evaluate
andscript.callFunction
to customize theRemoteValue
serialization (Firefox bug 1824953). - Fixed an issue where both the
script.evaluate
andscript.callFunction
commands did not include the stack trace and failed to properly build the exception details for a rejected Promise (Firefox bug 1829630). - Fixed an issue where the
browsingContext.domContentLoaded
andbrowsingContext.load
events did not report the correcturl
, when the page defined a<base>
meta tag (Firefox bug 1825634).
Marionette
- Fixed an issue where the command
WebDriver:GetComputedRole
didn't properly return the WAI-ARIA roles (Firefox bug 1822112). - Fixed an issue where modifier keys were not reset when they were used again within the same
WebDriver:ElementSendKeys
command (Firefox bug 1776190).
