Firefox 2 Problems and Fixes
Posted by hardwarehank, Tue Oct 24 15:50:00 UTC 2006
So, I was annoyed about these things:
- I couldn’t use the backspace key to go back.
- I couldn’t middle click paste links.
- I couldn’t open a whole bunch of tabs before they scrolled.
- The close buttons on each tab annoy me.
- I’d lose my session if I pushed the close button, but it would come back if I force killed.
So I fixed them all like this:
- Go to about:config.
- browser.backspace_action = 0
- middlemouse.paste = 0 and middlemouse.contentLoadURL = true
- browser.tabs.tabMinWidth = 0
- browser.tabs.closebuttons = 3
- browser.startup.page = 3
Now it’s all back to normal.
