Try installing the No Script add on. The only drawback to this is
that you have to then authorize scripts you want to allow to run on
pages, but I've found that this doesn't take very long and is much
preferable to all of the problems autoloading/refreshing causes on an
increasing number of pages. This script also speeds up the loading of
a lot of pages since only the scripts you allow will load. You can
also temporarily allow single or all scripts on a page to run,
meaning that they run for that session until you shut down Firefox
and restart it. This is useful for pages like Youtube where the issue
with being knocked back into browse mode while trying to type in the
search field is intrinsic to the main page script and thus will
happen as long as videos are able to run. You then search for what
you want, open the page for the video you want and then allow the
scripts to run, thus playing the video. If you want to do another
search, you then forbid the script again, do your search and then
allow the script to play videos. All of this forbidding and
permitting is done through the context menu and is very easy to do.

try? Thanks. Regards: Ted Larson
