Inter web world has given some wonderful tips for firefox browsers.
FireFox Navigation Tricks & Techniques:
- ALT+HOME: This shortcut will take you back to the browsers default homepage.
- Changing Your Default Homepage: Drag a link from the address bar over the Home button. Release the mouse and you’ll be asked if you want to reset your homepage.
- ALT+D: This jumps you straight into the address bar and allows you to either type in a new address or modify the address that’s already there.
- ALT+Back Arrow/ALT+Forward Arrow: The essential Back/Forward browsing commands. Don’t leave home without them.
- CTRL+T: Open up a new tab in your browser window. It’ll start up with the cursor in the address bar waiting on your command. Literally.
- CTRL+TAB: Cycles through the various tabs you have open in FireFox. Bonus points for using CTRL+SHIFT+TAB to cycle backwards! Got too many tabs open? Then you might need…
- CTRL+W: Closes the current tab you’re looking at. Be careful, closing the last tab shuts down FireFox!
- Preloading Pages: I like to read stuff right through to the end before reading material that’s been linked to in the post. To have all the material ready and waiting, I middle click each of the links as I browse and they load up in new tabs while I’m reading.
- Bookmarking: If you’re old school and insist on bookmarking, CTRL+D will bookmark the page you’re on. Actually, I’m using the Del.icio.us Bookmarks extension for FireFox and CTRL+D brings up a new bookmark in that too! Hooray!
Thank you inter web world.
