Despite making the following changes to /etc/login.conf there were no improvements to Firefox's behavior when logging into that site.

staff:\
#  :datasize-cur=1536M:\    2022/12/09 INCREASE MEMORY SPACE
    :datasize-cur=12000M:\
    :datasize-max=infinity:\
#  :maxproc-max=512:\    2022/12/09 INCREASE MAX NUM OF PROCESSES
     :maxproc-max=1024:\
#  :maxproc-cur=256:\      2022/12/09 INCREASE LIMIT NUM OF PROCESSES
    :maxproc-cur=512:\
    :ignorenologin:\
    :requirehome@:\
    :tc=default:

Task Manager showed that I got nowhere near my memory or process number limits.  I returned login.conf to its original values.

Thought I'd let the group know in case someone was diagnosing a similar issue or it triggered a helpful insight.

FYI update - My apologies for resurrecting this issue but I recently discovered that if I'm in the root account, rather than that of a standard user's,  I'm am able to successfully log into the web site.  I'll increase the resources allocated to the staff group to see if that makes a difference otherwise I suspect the problem relates to the rights limitations imposed on Firefox &/or a user's account.
