Fixing a YAMS Language Switcher That Fails Only in Firefox

Why YAMS may switch languages correctly in most browsers but fail on the home page in Firefox, and how to trace the mismatch.

Browser-specific multilingual bugs are rarely random. If YAMS switches correctly in Chrome, Opera, or Internet Explorer but fails only in Firefox on the home page, the issue is usually tied to one combination of cached markup, canonical URL handling, or link-state detection.

What to Compare

the exact switcher links rendered in each browser
home-page caching behavior versus inner-page behavior
any browser-specific handling of the base URL or redirects

When only the home page fails, treat that page as a special routing case first. It often has different alias, base-path, or redirect behavior from ordinary internal resources.
