TweakGuides.com - Firefox Tweak Guide, Part I

  • Explanation of how to customize Firefox using a few key entries in the about:config file (prefs.js). - krissanthesquad on 2006-04-02
  • browser.throbber.url [String] - This setting determines the page which opens if you click on the 'throbber' - the small animated circle to the right of the address bar. You can change the URL to whichever site you want. The default is the Firefox Central page.

  • browser.jsannoyances.disabled [Boolean] - If set to True, all the dom. javascript-related events will be set to True (see the dom. entries on the next page) effectively disabling the majority of annoying Javascript behaviors.
    • I had to add this to my about:config file, because it wasn't there by default. - on 2006-04-02

TweakGuides.com - Firefox Tweak Guide, Part II

  • Explanation of how to customize Firefox using a few key entries in the about:config file (prefs.js). - krissanthesquad on 2006-04-02
  • layout.word_select.eat_space_to_next_word [Boolean] - This setting determines the selection behavior when you double-click on a word on a web page. By default (True), Firefox selects the word and the white space on the right of that word. If set to False, Firefox will only select the word itself with no extra spaces. I personally prefer to have this set to False.
    • I always set this to false. I like to copy just the word and not the space next to it. Copying the space next to a linked word causes all kinds of problems with formatting in Word, too. - on 2006-04-02

  • dom.disable_window_open_feature.* [Boolean] - There are 11 settings which begin with this tag (and end with one of the following: .close, .directories, .location, .menubar, .minimizable, .personalbar, .resizable, .scrollbars, .status, .titlebar, .toolbar). These 11 settings control the elements of popup windows which you can force to be displayed. For example, if you set the dom.disable_window_open_feature.close setting to True, it will force all popup windows which open up to have a close button in the top right hand corner of the popup window. This is useful since many popup windows (mainly ads) deliberately remove such elements to prevent easy resizing/closing of their content. For that reason I recommend you set at least the .close and .resizeable settings to true.

    • I'm experimenting with these settings. Right now, I haven't changed anything, because I think I have javascript set to open in tabs. - on 2006-04-02

O'Reilly Network -- Tap the Power of Mozilla's User Style Sheets

  • Change that throbber!



    Another popular element to change is the "throbber," that ubiquitous element
    displayed at the upper right of most browsers to tell you it's "busy."

  • #navigator-throbber
    {
    list-style-image : url("applestill.gif")!important;
    }
    #navigator-throbber[busy="true"]
    {
    list-style-image : url("applespin.gif")!important;
