Firefox 2 Problems and Fixes

Posted by hardwarehank, Tue Oct 24 19:50:00 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.
