How cause Firefox to display the definition of a Word?

When reading online articles, I would like an easy way to get the definition of a word in the dictionary (without having to have a separate tab and set up a dictionary)

Not a problem, try this add on https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fire.../one-click-popup-dictionary/ or the official: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fire.../dictionary-extension/

    Highlight the word, right-click on it and select "search... "with the white line that represents all that is the word.  It will pull up from the definition in the dictionary.

  • [SOLVED] [Firefox [19] How can I get Firefox to display the PDF files?

    When I first installed Firefox 19, the PDF Viewer worked so well that I uninstalled Adobe Reader. Today, after an update system, Firefox stopped display local PDF. If I open a PDF file directly from a Web site, the internal PDF Viewer active and the PDF file is displayed correctly. However, if I open a PDF to my hard drive, Firefox just displays a mass of confused characters and the internal PDF Viewer does not work.

    Here is a screenshot of the behavior: http://i.imgur.com/5Of0kUH.png

    I tried to start in safe mode and the behaviour persisted. I really hope there is a fix for this, because the use of Firefox to view PDF files is really much better my workflow.

    EDIT - SOLUTION IN RESPONSE

    SOLUTION

    1. In the terminal, type: # firefox - ProfileManager
    2. Create a new profile.
    3. Start with the profile said.
    4. Fixed. Internal PDF Viewer now works in a profile.
  • How to find the definition of a Word?

    I used to be able to place the cursor on a Word, press ALT and click to the left, and Ans.com could lead to the definition.

  • Firefox 5 displays the right fonts only in Mode safe!

    After upgrading to Firefox 5, I noticed it displays the wrong fonts (larger than they should - they look ok in Firefox 4.x, Chrome, Opera).

    The strange thing is that if I run Firefox 5 Mode without failure, it displays it correctly. I have disabled all addons, I cleaned all Cache, configuration of the size of minimum font... even reinstalled. It is allowed only in Mode safe looking.

    What else to do?

    Safe mode disables extensions in Firefox 4, and disables hardware acceleration.

    • Tools > Options > advanced > General > Browsing: "use hardware acceleration when available.

    Try to turn some of the prefs Boolean gfx.font_rendering on the topic: configuration page to disable some features.

    Filter: gfx

    To open the topic: config page, type Subject: config in the address bar (address) and press the 'Enter' key, as you type the url of a Web site to open a Web site.

    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access this page.

    You can use the filter at the top bar of the on: page config to more easily spot a pref.

  • How a variable may display the first character that is on the page?

    I'm creating a phone book and each page to see the alphabet the first listing on the page on the top - only a single character.

    Can you tell me how to proceed?

    The thing, of course, is how to apply the character style.

    You'll want to have she asked the first character of EACH list so that headers update when you change and if you do not need to go through page after page by applying the style. You can do this with a nested Style applied through 1 character as the first litter of style in your paragraph style definition (and this character style has no need of any other than a name defiintion of work for this), or, if you already have some nested styles, you can use GREP as well as nested styles style. You would use ^. as the string to match. This means that the first character of a paragraph.

    The same work of techniques for a whole word wil. For nested style, change to 1 character through 1 word for GREP change to ^ [\u\l]+ which is any combination of upper and lowercase letters the latter at the beginning of a paragraph, but stop matching when it hits a number, punctuation or spaces.] If you have numbers in the lists to be used, you can add \d to the class in the above GREP.

  • Empty paragraphs in a textflow cause error when displaying the text

    Hello

    When I create a textflow which has empty ParagraphElements elements in it (i.e. a ParagraphElement childless) I get this runtime error when I try to display the text in a container:
    : Error #2175: one or more elements of the content of the TextBlock object has a null ElementFormat.
    Is this a bug, or is there a reason legitimate for this error? If so, I would like to understand why. In my reasoning, a vacuum ParagraphElement should justifiably in the rendering of a line break. But maybe I think too much in terms HTML here...

    I appreciate any light you can throw on this point,

    Thanks in advance,

    Roland

    P.S. I'm using the latest version of 370

  • How to get Firefox to display the pdf file in the browser (Win 7, FF 19.0, AA 10.1.6 IE 9)?

    After that Firefox updated to version 19, when I tried to view a pdf file, the file appeared in a strange new Viewer. Seemed work OK, but I was concerned (did not know that this is apparently a new feature of 19 FF) and I wanted the viewer Adobe back.

    After a few minutes of listening in the FF pdf viewer, a message appears that says something like--this viewer may be displayed not the document correctly. You want to use Adobe Acrobat instead?-I clicked on Yes.

    Now, when I click on a link for a pdf file, it will either automatically opens in Adobe Acrobat (windows application, no player in FF) format, or I'll get a dialog box that asks if I want to save the file or use Adobe Acrobat to open it.

    I followed the instructions here:

    Have you tried the Firefox zoom feature? Font size and zoom - increase the size of web pages
    You can "zoom in" all sites using this add-on: NoSquint. After setting your overall zoom level, you can still adjust the zoom on different sites.
    After the installation of NoSquint, click on the % in the bar of the add-on call site preferences, then click the global settings button, then the zoom tab.

    If you do not have the bar the module displayed, you can click the new tab button ("+") or a box empty bar tab to the right of the item and choose the module bar on the shortcut menu.

    You can experiment with sizes greater than 125%, but I wouldn't not much higher than 150% unless you have a large screen high resolution.

    If there are sites that are still a concern, feel free to post their URLs.

    You can find more information about the features of zoom Firefox offer in these articles:

  • How can I get Firefox to display the Facebook comments to my blog the Huffington Post?

    I am a blogger for the Huffington Post. They recently moved all comment to Facebook activity, and I see comments from readers via Internet Explorer, but not with Firefox. I would like to know what to do about it? I see a small link that takes me to a page of information "Facebook Social Addin", on Internet Explorer. Missing Firefox? Or is there another solution?

    Your "Disconnect" extension aims to reduce multisite followed by Facebook? It is possible that is a factor because I think that the code that retrieves the observations (hosted on connect.facebook.net) can be on the same server as the code that generates the button I like.
