How can I get the default value of the cursor in the address bar when I open a new tab, rather than the cursor by default a search engine text box?

Using Firefox 17.0.1 and then I XP

Firefox does by default. You probably have an add-on installed that changed the focus of the cursor in the URL bar of the search bar.

  • How to select all the text in the address bar when you open a new tab

    I changed browser.newtab.url to a Web site with links, that I often use. Now, I have the problem that I don't always want to use one of these links. So when I start typing in the address bar text simply add the URL of my site. The problem would be solved, if the text in the address bar is activated every time when I opened a new tab (I could press each time crtl + of course, but I usually just type)

    Is there something in the config, I can change or an Addon?

    I had this same problem, but I was able to remedy this by installing this add-on:

    https://addons.Mozilla.org/firefox/addon/custom-new-tab/

    After the installation, remember to go to add-ons, Extensions; Click on the Options button; and select the development of space in the URL bar.

  • Firefox 23.0.1, update is no longer automatically highlights the contents of address bar when I open a new tab.

    The foregoing. When I opened a new tab in the past, before the new update, firefox would automatically highlight the text in the address bar, and I couldn't just start typing here the address of the site that I wanted to. I could quickly get anywhere I want in less than a second. Now, I need to drag, and then click on in the bar every time to address. I installed an add-on called "custom newtab", but it slows down just me lower due to a lag between opening a new tab and the add-on kick and highlighting the contents of address bar.
    What is happening is this:
    Click "new tab".
    New tab opens blank, and the text appears highlighted "google.co.uk" for about a quarter second.
    Loading the Google page and highlight the text becomes not for another second quarter.
    The module comes in and highlights the text "google.co.uk" Meanwhile I have already started typing and end up losing the first part of words, sending me random web pages and research.

    Why this change? Difficulty please!

    Hi ChrisYeomans, a change has been noted in other threads on google.co.uk

    The http URL now automatically redirects to https. Since you did not specify the Protocol in your newtab.url setting, Firefox attempts http and it is immediately redirected to the https domain. You should be able to see this happen unless your computer is much faster than mine.

    Firefox does not handle this redirect elegantly - the URL in the address bar is not enabled unless you click a different tab, and then click back.

    To work around the problem, update your newtab.url to the URL https://www.google.co.uk/ full

  • How you automatically open a new tab rather than overwriting it open

    I have a tab open. Now, I opened another site and it substitutes instead of getting my first site opened a second tab. I want to a new tab open whenever I go to a different site.

    You can open links in new tabs with the middle button (unless they are javascript). In all cases, you can use an add-on to force all new loading of the page to open in a new window.

  • Safari ceased to autofocus on the address bar after you open a new tab

    The problem just appeared out of the blue (no prior of note that I can remember happening to OS X, or Safari).

    I know this may seem like a minor issue, but a heavy user of Safari would accept this quirk would be annoying bloody.

    I use the latest public version of El Capitan (10.11.4) on a rMPB and an iMac (the two are sitting in the same local network on both machines, I'm the only user), and the question seems to have emerged more or less simultaneously on both devices.

    No beta updates have been applied, all system updates have been installed via the official Apple App Store.

    • I tried resetting Safari Preferences to open new tabs in a page empty (like some suggested users before), but which resulted in nothing. Also, I tried to disable all extensions and completely ban Internet plug-ins.

    • The problem persists when you connect as a guest and when you restart the system startup.

    This phenomenon has never occurred to me before.

    If anyone has any suggestions on how to solve this problem, I would be very grateful to restore softness to my workflow.

    Thanks in advance.

    -Alex.

    Hello..

    Given that this is happening on two Macs restart your modem router and internet Wi - Fi, restart the Mac and then try Safari.

  • No text at all in the address bar when you open a new window

    After update (last 2 I think?) currently 16.0.2 worm, when I open a link in a new window, there is no text in the adressbar. The reload or bookmarking a page like this does not work because the address is empty, I have to open the properties page copy the link, paste it into the address field and go to the page. He can not find any info on how to restore the previous working state. Present address in new tabs, links in the same window, etc.

    It's weird. Couple questions:

    Does it matter how to open new window, for example, if you (1) right click > open link in a new window, (2) shift + click the link, or (3) there is a pop up generated by the page?

    If you right click on the content of the page, the menu has a submenu 'this framework', which would indicate that the page is framed?

    Where this is caused by an add-on, a standard Diagnostics in order to avoid interference by extensions (and some custom settings) is to try the Mode without failure of Firefox.

    First of all, I recommend you backup your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See back up and restore the information contained in the profiles of Firefox. (You can copy your profile folder Firefox together somewhere outside the Mozilla folder).

    Then restart Firefox in Mode safe (questions to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode) of Firefox help

    Help > restart with disabled modules

    In the dialog box, click "start mode safe."

    If the site is working properly, it points to one of your extensions or custom as the problem settings.

    To disable the plugins and extensions, you can try here:

    Orange Firefox button or classic menu Tools > Modules > Plugins category

  • When you open a new tab, placing default text in the address bar, a way to change to the new page (like Google)?

    When I click on the 'plus' for a new tab, which automatically takes me to google.com so beautiful, but the cursor is in the address bar. It seems that the cursor is in the google search box, but it's not.

    When I click on "Home" the default cursor, the search field, which I think is correct. Is there a way to have FF does not by default the address for the input text bar when you open a new tab?

    I doubt it. Google controls their research and their browser and they integrate features. But you can use "Ctrl + K" to place your cursor in the search bar"in your Firefox toolbars. By pressing the key TAB a little is a waste of time since there are a lot of links before you get to the entrance area.

    There could be an extension, if it bothers some, but I don't see a valid compromise to justify the use of an extension of something that seems trivial to me.

  • I want the cursor to be in the address bar when you create a new window; It works for new tabs and a new private window, but not in safe mode.

    I tried following the advice offered in the different threads bit I found on this but nothing works out. I want the cursor to be in the address bar when I open a new window or when firefox opens without restoring a previous session. I solved the problem for new tabs via subject: config, but it does not work for the new windows. I tried safe mode and the problem persists. In a new private window, the cursor is in the address bar.

    A new window opens the homepage (default: subject: House) and not the new tab page (default: subject: newtab).

    Some of the built-in pages set the focus to the search bar on the web page, just like the Google site only.

    You can use a bookmark in the bookmarks toolbar that opens the subject: blank page.
    If you hold down the SHIFT key when you click this bookmark, then you open a new widow with this page.
    Otherwise, you need to set the home page to about: blank or on the point: about to have easy access to all the pages.

  • I want to open a new tab, but keep the cursor in the adressbar. Right not every time I open a new tab, I come to a page with google search and the firefox logo.

    Everytime I open a new tab, I'm greeted by this page

    http://blog.Mozilla.org/UX/files/2012/05/Firefox-beta-13-redesigned-About_Home-Page1.PNG?128c42

    Is a small problem for me, because when I want the cursor at the beginning in the adressbar. So, if for example, I opened a new page, I type in imdb.com I receive directly on imdb.

    Today, however, with the Home tab firefox screen. I have to do a google search for imdb.

    A small problem perhaps, but enough to be annoying.

    Is there a way to move the settings or something similar, and keep the cursor in the address bar after you open a new tab?

    Hello

    If you only want the new tabs do not have home page, you can change it by going in your Subject: config page and replacing "browser.newtab.url" Subject: vacuum. For me at least, if I open a new tab on a white page, the cursor remains the address bar.

    In order to change your Firefox Configuration please follow the following steps:

    1. In the address bar, type Subject: config

    and press enter. The subject: config "this might void your warranty!" warning page may appear.

    1. Click on I'll be careful, I promise! to keep the comments: config page.

    If you also want to change your home page to a blank page, you can do so in virtue:

    • (on Windows) Tools > Options > general, or
    • Menu

      > Options (preferences on Mac and Linux) > general

    Then change the dropdown to "when Firefox starts:"so that it is set to 'Show a blank page'.»

    Note that you can continue to do research on the awesome bar and search bar where you want to do a Google search.

  • How can I get by default aspect ratio of the title at 100% instead of 145,3% Premiere CS4

    I have a boring, nagging problem titration in Premiere CS4.

    I can choose any default style.  Fine.  I click to place text in the Titler, that's fine.  Then always, EVERY TIME, there the text initially 145,3% Aspect.  It is always great text when I start, no matter what looks like by default in the style selector.  Unfortunately, for each project, I am, normal text is desired, any time that I ever want to use the CS4 titration module, it takes a notch or two more than necessary back to the appearance of 100%.

    Over time, it's REALLY annoying when it could just be the default value of 100 somehow.  I hope.

    How can I get by default aspect ratio of 100% instead of 145,3% title?  I could be happier if I found the answer to this!  Thank you.

    What happens if you click and just start typing without application of a style?

  • How can I get the default for the new tab page when there is no improved/classic/empty choises when I click on the gear icon.

    When I open a new tab, I used to get a page which had tiles for some of the sites I visit often. Now I get the Bing search page. The help of instructions say I can change the default new tab page by clicking on the gear on a new improved, classic, or blank page icon in a drop-down list. When I click on the train, I don't get this list of options. Instead, a settings page appears, allowing me to make various changes, but improved, classic or white new tab page choices aren't there. What should I do?

    To modify the new page tab, please follow these steps:

    1. Go to about:config in Firefox
    2. Locate the browser.newtab.url string
    3. Set the value of this string on the URL of your page to the desired tab

    This should change the new tab page.

    Notes:

    • Set the about:newtab to get the page of the new classic tab
    • Set the about:home to get the default home page
    • Set the about:blank to get the blank page

    Hi Sean.C!

    M_Peeker's suggestion is a good thing.  A stage that could clarify things is that you must set the % t <%H:%M> format string entry.

    http://forums.NI.com/T5/LabVIEW/how-can-I-return-the-maximum-value-from-a-voltage-sensor-over/m-p/30...

    I tried the while loop max-min-solution described in this link. But this using my myRio acceleration measurement no longer works. It seems to hang.

    I use the I2C Communication.

    The inner circle while loop is a bad construction.  It will be either executed once, if enter the Boolean value is True, or forever if the value is false.

    Put your records on the timed loop shift and eliminate inside while loop.  Then your code should work.

    Try to uninstall the old version - it is not necessary.  An upgrade is a product independent and fully functional.
