send a Web page by e-mail

I want to share a location of Web site by e-mail while I'm on Firefox. How do I do that?

Firefox has a "Send link" feature but it is not in the menu or the toolbar when you install Firefox. You can add it using the personalization feature. This article describes how to open the Customize dialog box where you can drag the email link icon to the menu or toolbar: controls customize Firefox, buttons, and toolbars.

You can also find it in the classic menu bar. If you do not usually display that bar (file, editing, display,...), you can display it temporarily by pressing the Alt key or by pressing the F10 key. Then, check the menu file for email link.

If you have not yet installed Firefox to connect to your e-mail application or mail site, you should get a dialog box with choices. If your email application or mail site is not listed, please post back with more information on what you want to use to send the message.

  • Can no longer send a web page to e-mail someone, want this ability to return. How to fix?

    Hello, I'm bored of the small rectangle orange in the upper left corner of my screen of mozilla firefox, now that I have the new version, where I could click and he'd come down with some selections menu, being 'share' and I could send a link to the page I was on in firefox, to a person in my email list. I use Thunderbird, incidentally. Is it still possible to write links to the web pages of mozilla? If not, is there a way to recover the previous version of firefox? I thank very you much.

    Hi Sara, if you need another way to do it, the feature is available in the classic file menu. You can call this bar high by pressing the ALT key.

  • How to send a web page to another person

    I often have to transfer web pages to friends and used to be able to do it before I got a new hard drive put in. I used to be able to click an orange cross who opened an email forwarding screen that I filled in, then sent to the page. I see that now and wonder if there is something similar, that I can use. My web searches have previously been in vain, and as usual, do not help the responses of Firefox. What can you tell me?

    There is a FIREFOX addon, capture and send this web page, which does all the work for you when you want to send a web page to a person. You need only type that email address you're using and the password for that. It's simple, accurate and very effective, even send him a copy of what you sent to your e-mail address.

  • I can't send a Web page by clicking on a link?

    I often send a Web page to others by clicking on the use of a link to the page under 'file '. I can't do it on this PC with Vista.

    This is for Windows Mail in Vista.  If you use Windows Live Mail, you must ask the question in the appropriate here forum: www.windowslivehelp.com as WLM is not per se part of Windows (this forum) and the WLM experts are here and not here.

  • Sendin a web page by e-mail

    WhenIi attempt to send a Web page or a link in the file menu in Internet Explorer, the option to do not is not highlighted, only the option to create a shortcut.  I just upgraded to Windows 7 and IE 8

    Hey, Ann Brown,.

    You need to set your default email under custom settings client. You can do this:

    ·         Click Start

    ·         Click default programs

    ·         Click set access and the computer program defaults

    ·         Click on custom

    ·         Select the e-mail client to use

    ·         Click OK

    This should enable the grayed out options.

    Can't wait to hear back on your part.

    Help!

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.

    • Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe

    You can also try another mouse in case there is a problem with your current mouse and check the double-click setting in the mouse driver software.

  • Cannot send the link to the web page by e-mail

    Windows 8 doesn't let me send a link to the page by e-mail. In Vista, it's easy, click just to the right, click on send link by e-mail and it used my e-mail program, no problem. Not the case with Windows 8 and Windows Live Mail. If I right click on the page, it evokes a box that has "email with Windows Live", which seems to be the right choice, but it just takes me to a connection to Microsoft, the same one that I use to get in these forums. How the * is that it will get to my email? I don't have a login to my email. I use a shortcut on the lower tray to open it. You're talking about not intuitive. Why can't they just leave things alone? No one at Microsoft ever heard the expression "if it is not broken, don't fix"? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

  • How do you get the file, send a web page, it's gone

    I have more a file tab that allows me to send web pages to another address. How to do that.

    If the bar classic menu set is missing, you can display it temporarily by pressing the ALT or by pressing F10.

    To be displayed, you can use one of the following methods to display the list toolbar, and then select it there:

    • Right click on a place empty on the tab bar (or the button '+')
    • Press the Alt key to activate the classic menu bar > view > toolbars
    • in customize mode > show/hide toolbars

    Does it work? Is always there E-mail link in the file menu?

  • Firefox does not allow me to send a Web page by clicking on the right-why?

    I used to be able to right-click on a Web page and send the page. Then, something changed and when I right click, this option was not immediately available. Instead, I had to right-click, point to a main category that then gave me two options, once that has been send through Yahoo Web page. When I did, the e-mail would fill with the link, but a lot of junk on Yahoo, too.

    Now, when I right click just two weeks later, option has completely disappeared. So, now, I can't send a webpage just be a right-click. I have to copy the link and paste the link open an email. What happened, and can we recover?

    Hello cera78, mozilla cleans its user interface from time to time. user interface studies showed that this context menu entry is only used by < 1% of users.

    If you liked the features you can use an add-on to recover: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/send-link-in-context-menu/

  • I WANT TO SEND A WEB PAGE. I USED TO BE ABLE TO DO.

    There used to be a function that allows me to send the link of the Web page to someone directly on the site that I was currently.

    Hi, open the 3-bar menu > customize, look for the link in the Email and then drag it to the right (in the blue rectangle) If you want in the menu, or drag it to a location on a toolbar. Then click on exit customize to save the setting.

    Email link is also in the menu bar - press Alt to get temporarily, or right click in the bar tabs (but not on a tab) and tick/check menu bar. You can find the Email link in the view tab.

  • When you send the Web page link, the link is not active

    When I want to send the link to a Web page I visit, I choose my yahoo email account and the webpage link is inserted in the email box, but it is not an active link and cannot be clicked for this person to go. They could, however, copy and paste the address into a browser bar, which everyone would know how to do. If I choose my gmail account, the link is active. What is a firefox problem or yahoo? There are moments where the yahoo link would be active, but it seems that it is never active.

    Some publishers have magical powers to linkify automatically a URL. Yahoo does not that for Firefox, although I heard that it does for users of Internet Explorer.

    Instead, you must use the link button. I have attached some screenshots illustrating.

  • How to enlarge printing Web pages and e-mails currently too small.

    I have two browsers internet explore and Firefox, as well as windows vista. I loaded version 4.0.1. I just noticed that the fonts are super tiny when I print from web pages and emails. I can't say with certainty that the new version is responsible for this dysfunction. I tried to change the font type and size through your instructions in the knowledge base, without success. I need to know how I can fix this problem or direct me on how to download a previous version of Firefox to Vista.

    File > layout = scale

    100% is usually better
