FireF0X 3.X TrickZ -=(.)(.)=-

The following tweaks are obtained by typing about:config and then modifying the page. Make sure you take a back up copy just in case something goes wrong. Here are some of the hacks for the experimantally oriented.

Step one: Type about:config in the address bar and hit enter
Step two: Make the following modifications to the file by typing in the values on the respective fields to get the desired result (feel free to experiment)


1. To enable/disable Single Click Select URL of address bar
browser.urlbar.clickSelectsAll = True
browser.urlbar.clickSelectsAll = False

2. To auto Complete URL while typing in the address Bar
browser.urlbar.autoFill=True

3. To set the number of auto complete URL in the address bar

browser.urlbar.maxRichResults = #
(# indicates the number of auto complete URLs shown. The default is 12)

4. To disabler Browser Toolbar Tip
browser.chrome.toolbar_tips = False

5. To paste copied content by clicking the center button on the mouse
middlemouse.paste = True

6. To disable blinking text
browser.blink_allowed = False

7. To create a single close button to for all Firefox Opened Tabs.
browser.tabs.closeButtons = 3

8. To increase number of recently closed tabs.
browser.sessionstore.max_tabs_undo=15

9. Right click view source in your editor
view_source.editor.external=True
view_source.editor.path= Path of Editor

10. To enable fast scrolling across tabs
toolkit.scrollbox.scrollIncrement =75

11. To stop displaying website icon in address bar and on the tabs
browser.chrome.site_icons = False

12. To enable spell check in text fields
layout.spellcheckDefault = 2

13. To speed up the browser
network.http.max-connections 30 to 96
network.http.max-connections-per-server 15 to 32
network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server 6 to 8
network.http.pipelining false to true
network.http.proxy.pipelining false to true
network.http.pipelining.maxrequests 30 to 8
network.http.pipelining.ssl false to true

14. To disable annoying browser behavior
Change the followowing values to 'false'
dom.disable_window_open_feature.titlebar

dom.disable_window_open_feature.menubar


dom.disable_window_move_resize
dom.disable_window_open_feature.toolbar

15. To show more tabs on single window
browser.tabs.tabMinWidth = 75

16. To display search results in new tab
browser.search.openintab=True.


I have used many of the above about:config hacks with Firefox 2 before and it is working for the new version as well. If some thing goes wrong after applying these changes, restore your about:config to older setting.
