I am trying to create a python application while using eel to create a user interface in html. My operating system is Ubuntu Linux and I'm using Firefox to display the web interface.
The problem I'm having is every time I run the python code, Firefox opens a blank page saying "Unable to connect" followed by "Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at localhost:8000". However, if I click the "Try Again" button once, twice, or three times, my interface is displayed.
Once open, I can navigate to different pages but I also noticed that once I navigate to a different page, some of my javascript stops working (specifically a window.close() function). I don't know if this is related but I thought I would mention it just in case.
Any advice on the matter would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
