Mozilla Firefox Tips

1.Open tabs with one click:


Instead of right-clicking a link and choosing Open Link in New Tab, click a link with your mouse's scroll-wheel button to open it in a new tab. You can also click that tab with your scroll wheel to close it. (You may have to disable any function assigned to your click wheel for this to work, however.)


2.One-click combos


Don't have a scroll wheel? Hold down Ctrl while left-clicking a link to open a URL in a new tab, or hold Shift and left-click to open a URL in a new window.


3.More on Autocomplete


To eliminate your AutoComplete history in Firefox, go to Tools > Options > Privacy. In the Saved Form Information area, click the Clear button. To disable this feature entirely, click on the plus symbol next to the Saved Form Information area and uncheck "Save information I enter in web page forms."



4.Keep tabs on your tabs


You can control how new tabs open in Firefox in one of three ways: Open the page in a new window, open the page in a new tab in the front window, or replace the current page in the front window. Click the Advanced section of the Options window to customise it to your liking.


5.Smooth sailing


Put an end to jerky document scrolling by enabling Firefox's "Use smooth scrolling" feature in the Advanced section of the Options window.


6.Search in shorthand


Type a word in the address bar, then hit Ctrl+Enter to automatically add http://www and .com to the beginning and end, respectively, of the word. (Ctrl+Shift+Enter adds .org, and Shift+Enter adds .net.)


7.Zoom in and out


Hit Ctrl and the plus sign to increase text size on your current Web page or Ctrl and the minus to decrease it. To restore the original size, hit Ctrl+0.


8.Open a tab


To open a particular tab in Firefox, hit Ctrl+1 through Ctrl+9. Tabs aren't numbered, though, so you'll have to physically count them.


9.Use live bookmarks


Get the latest headlines from your favourite RSS news sites and blogs. Just click the square, bright-orange icon in the bottom right corner of your browser and click "OK to save as bookmark." The Live Bookmark will now function as your RSS aggregator.


Love happen's once and the rest is just life!!!!
