A url in an e-mail message opens in the firefox window and then open a new (replacing the original window.

Using Safari, when I click on a url in an e-mail message, it opens in a new window. Using Firefox, clicking on a url in an email replces the firefox window opened by a new one. I want that they open both.

Is the email in Firefox and this page is accessing the linked page, or is the e-mail message in a separate program, and it launches the URL in the last active window of Firefox?

If the problem is an external link, you can check your settings for the following preference:

(1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

(2) in the filter box, type or paste link.open and make a pause so that the list is filtered. Then look for that and if its value is not 2, change it to 2.

Browser.Link.open_newwindow.override.external

-1 = open_newwindow applies to external links (default)

3 = open external links in a new tab

2 = open external links in a new window

1 = open external links in the active tab

Edit: Probably a good idea to check this one, too, and set it to 2 or 3, as you prefer.

Browser.Link.open_newwindow

3 = divert new window into a new tab (by default) (checked *)

2 = allow the link to open a new window (uncontrolled *)

1 = new power window in the same tab

* First check box in the Options > tabs (on Mac, preferences > tabs)

  • Why my Muse formatting does not disappear when I open the site in DW CS6? I need to change the PayPal shopping cart code to account for my shipping options. I exported the Muse test in a folder and then created a new Site in DW using this file, so any CSS

    Why my Muse formatting does not disappear when I open the site in DW CS6? I need to change the PayPal shopping cart code to account for my shipping options. I exported the Muse test in a folder and then created a new Site in DW with the help of this file, so all CSS should be there, but I don't see on the page about the elements without formatting, any stop to the left. Thank you!

    PS: Muse will be the most impressive program ever when they fix these bugs or drop because not every user will be paying through the nose for Business Catalyst. Grrrrrrrrr.

    Best approach would be not to use the PayPal widget and instead copy and paste the PayPal code embedded in an object > object to insert the HTML in Muse. This way you can edit the HTML code to embed PayPal code from Muse and without having to modify the exported code.

  • Drag the e-mail message open mailbox

    I've recently updated to El Capitan.  In latest versions OS Mail, when you opened a message, there is an icon at the top of the window of the message before the title and you can click and drag the open message to the mailbox to check it.  The icon is now gone and I can't find a way to do this without finding the original message in my Inbox.  Is there a way to get around this?  The reason why I want to do this is because I often open the messages I need to treat and leave them open as a reminder.  The message in the Inbox becomes buried in hundreds of others and so it is easier to find and move the open message that he finds in the Inbox list.

    Try dragging the message header. I can't test this on a machine of El Capitan right now, but I think it works.

  • When I type, or copy and paste a URL in an e-mail message, how can I keep just like a URL and there not create this image with embedded links?

    My question pretty well describes the problem.

    I found a work around. 1 type any letter and then immediately following the letter (without space), type the URL or paste a URL address, and then remove the main letter.

  • If I type a URL in an e-mail message, why don't the recipient click it and go directly to the site in question?

    It works very well in Internet Explorer and Google Chrome, but Firefox, to cut and paste the link into their browser...

    Just above the text box that allows you to enter the text of the message, there usually a bar of buttons with buttons to add updated text in shape like the bold and italic.

    This toolbar can also have a button to activate a clickable hyperlink text link (look for a string like button).

    You can select the text and click on this button to activate the link into a clickable hyperlink.

    If you can not find the button, and then move all the to check the ToolTip of each.

  • Import e-mail messages from Outlook Express in Windows Live Mail?

    I have recently moved to a new PC with Win7 and have been using Live Mail - more often with success, I thought with the exception of one or two faults, but I'll probably post a question on those.
    On the audit of my old PC today, when I open Oulook Express have been downloaded more than 100 emails that have not appeared in Live Mail - dating back to the time I went.
    I tried to export these messages of OE, put it on a USB key and then import in LM LM do not seem to recognize them - these are the dbx files. Suggestions anyone please?
    Thank you in advance.
    Jeff.

    If both computers use the same e-mail address, you must do this to get the messages on both.
     
    On both machines: tools | Accounts | Mail | Properties | Advanced - Check: leave a copy of messages on the server.
     
    On a single computer only, make sure to delete messages after X days to satisfy your allocated space that you get from your server.
    *********************************************
    Transfer of data from Outlook Express and Windows Live Mail:
     
    For Messages:
     
    Copy the * ENTIRE * OE message store folder to a flash drive. (Folders.dbx must be included). Place it on the desktop or another location on the computer using WLMail. Open WLMail and: file | Import | Messages | Microsoft Outlook Express 6, and the point where it was saved.
     
    Location of OE message store:
     
    In OE: Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.
     
    In Windows XP, Win2K & Win2K3 the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden.

    Open the Contacts list in WLMail, (go |) Contacts in the Menu bar) and the file | Import | Address book (wab) Windows and the point where you saved it.
     
    Note: If you use a CD or a DVD instead of a flash drive, after placing on the new machine you must remove the read-only attribute in the properties before you import.
     
    For the account settings:
     
    In OE: Tools | Accounts, select the account and export it to the desktop. This will be an .iaf file. Copy it to the new computer and WLMail desktop: tools | Accounts and import the settings from the location you saved the.
