How to make your IDN for .my works for Firefox

Problem: Currently all the IDN which associate to .my will only show the puny code like http://xn--zfvo28e.my

This is because Firefox not configured to convert the puny code. Please follow the following to configure the Firefox manually to allow the puny code conversion. 


FireFox:


1) Open Firefox, and type "about:config" in the address bar
2) A list of configuration will be display, search for the configure started with "network.IDN.whitelist".
3) Right click on any of the configuration, select New -> Boolean
4) Type the "network.IDN.whitelist.my" in the popup window
5) select "True"
6) keying the IDN again in the address bar...
7) It works!!
