How can I disable swipe to navigate forward and backward?

When I drag it to the left, Firefox navigates back & when I slide to the right, Firefox navigates to the front.
The word "Back" or "Forward" appears in a black box in the center of the screen.
It is really easy to do this accidentally while scrolling around a large web page.
How can I disable it please?
I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 with stock Jelly Bean 4.1.2 and Firefox for Android 26.0.1.
Thank you
Martin

Hi nomzamo999,

I don't think that the gestures are a native feature of firefox for Android kernel.

  1. My guess would be that you have the quick-geastures module or similar installed... If you go to menu > tools > Modules are an extension called "action" sth? If so, try turning it off (press and hold the > disable) and see if it helps.
  2. If 1 is refuted, I blame TouchWiz. For check start another browser (native?) and see if the problem persists...

See you soon,.

JM
