Below is a simple submit button that submits a form:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<form action="action" method="POST>
<button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>
</body>
</htmlIn Firefox 45, there is a delay in form submission which seems to be caused by the "Storage" function. Upon inspecting in developer tools, it was found that the problem persists (as it did in version 43). Screenshots of the issue can be seen here: https://i.sstatic.net/0S1Q.png https://i.sstatic.net/OZbI.png
This issue is unique to Firefox and does not occur in other browsers. The question is why does the "Storage" function cause a delay of almost 1 second after form submission, making it seem like a long process (could it be due to multiple open tabs) and how can it be resolved? Additionally, why is this function invoked in the first place? Interestingly, this "Storage" function is not found in Firefox Developer Edition.
