  • not ask web pages uddenly that appears when you click on a link to

    I'm on a Web page that I want and I click on a relevant link for more information about this page.

It's very annoying and can you please tell me how to stop it. It only started happening recently.

    I understand when you click a Web link within a site, two Web pages open instead of one. This looks like some kind of Adware and I would recommend looking for malware or reset Firefox (please understand that this will restore Firefox to its default values, and all customizations will be removed in a folder called 'Old Firefox Data' on the desktop)

    I wonder what is happening and how I can stop that. Sometimes on my Windows XP Tablet that has been recently reinanstalled. This doesn't always happen. Sometimes, if there is a URL link in an e-mail message in my Outlook Inbox, when I clicked a box appears to want me to identify my browser. So I need to click on my computer in the box, then C: and then programs and find Internet Explorer.

    It is not an error so it's just to tell you that, due to low memory, the program that you are using is not respoding or takes to respond when you click Open program, it gives u this menu to move forward.

    therefore:

    You can either increase your memory or pagefile or having to run fewer programs at the same time. If you are running many programs you can remedy this by minimizing your startup programs and also make sure that your system is clean.

    That's why

  • Disable the feature of switching to tab, when you click on a link

    When I click on certain links particularly in gmail, for example, if I get an email from youtube of a video being downloaded and I click on the video says, firefox opens this link in a new tab, but the problem is that it will automatically switch to this tab that I hate. This happens with the other links that want to open in a new tab for.

    Switch to tab not more or go to the black list of the tab doesn't work. I got a fix for it in the comments: config page, but I've recently refreshed firefox and it removed the feature. preference, I don't want to use a plugin to solve this problem

    (edited for clarity - c title)

    Sorry, I'm distracted by the title of the question.

    You can check the tab bar setting in Options/Preferences > tabs.

    • [] "When I open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately."

    There are three prefs, accessible via the comments: page of config, to control the development, if you click on a link.

    • browser.tabs.loadDivertedInBackground (javascript)
    • browser.tabs.loadBookmarksInBackground (bookmarks)

    For the last few releases, when I click on a link in a tab, the new tab opens to the correct Web site, but the address bar is empty. I can get it by clicking on another tab, then return (but it's boring). Any ideas?

    You can check for problems with the database places.sqlite file in the Firefox profile folder.

    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.

  • Firefox can be configured to open the Firefox more recently-active window when you click on a link in another application? Using multiple profiles.

    I think it's really a feature request, but I don't see a forum for this. I used to use firefox almost exclusively, but switched to chrome when I started working freelance for a couple of different companies - the identities of chrome feature really helps me keep my sanity by having a unique identity for each company. However, a problem has recently developed with chrome which brought me back to firefox. The profile under firefox feature seems to have gotten much better since I made the first move, and I'm pretty happy with the way it works... with one exception:

    With firefox, clicking on a link in another application, always opens in the default profile. With chrome, she would always open in the browser window that was most recently active. It's a very intuitive behavior, because everything I do in the other application (e.g. thunderbird, evernote, Skype) is almost always linked to whatever browser window, I had finally opened.

    Any chance to do this implemented? Or maybe there is already a way to do this? I found the following related topics, but neither helped with this issue:

  • Downloaded my new site of Muse to an existing domain, replacement of the old site, now I get a 404 not found error page when you click on the link via google

    Hello

    I recently had a website for my business and I decided that its becoming outdated seriously.

    I created a new Web site using adobe muse with the original plan to delete the old site and replace it with the new site muse, but on the same domain name.

    Yesterday, I saved all the files of my site obsolete and deleted from the server and downloaded my new site Web de Adobe Muse to my FTP host with the original domain name.

    Now, when I search the keywords I'm looking generally when I had the old site, the link comes up, but when I click on a 404 not found error page appears.

    At the moment, I do believe that my works from home page by clicking on it, all other pages seem to show a 404 error.

    I'm not very experienced with web site design, please help me as soon as possible. My business is internet-based, every day without my site, my business is suffering.

    Looking forward to a response. Thank you.

    URL of the site please?

    In addition, how the site works in preview? If it works in preview, and all links to pages etc. are very good that there should be no reason for this issue, unless there is a server problem.

    After you download the new file, confirmed that this new file is downloaded correctly? You can use any ftp client and connect to your server to check downloaded files. You can contact your Web host for questions at the end of the server.

    Thank you

  • Forcing a file DOWNLOAD vs open a file when you click on a link... What is the best way to do it?

    Hi all

    What is the best way to ensure that when a user clicks a download link on a web page that the file is actually downloaded rather than the file open in any program can read? For my case, this includes two types of files, video files (.wmv, mainly) and .pdf files. I want my users to browse I provide for them, then they choose a link, click and the file downloads, NOT to have them play/open.

    I started researching on this last night, and the best I could come up with was the suggestion to add "& action = 3Dsave" file as a query string name. So, me being curious, I tried without success to find out whether A) the right way to do it or B) If this query string is the code appropriate to today's standards.

    I looked on the Web site of w3c.org not knowing if it was something that was of their Kingdom, but their website has been revamped and is now so cinfusing to navigate that one must become a software engineer to understand.

    Any help on this would be most appreciated. Thank you!

    Sincerely,

    wordman

    Create a file with the same name as the video/pdf file but with the extension .php. Insert the following code at the beginning (NO space before that in the file):

    <>

    Header ('Content-disposition: attachment; filename = yourfilename.xyz');

    Header ('Content-type: abc');

    ReadFile ('sourcefilename.xyz');

    ?>

    Replace with the file name to "yourfilename" above. sourceFileName may be the same. This gives you just the ability to change names.

    You can find a list of the types mime here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mime_type

    If you know php, you have a lot of files, it would probably be easier to have all the links go on one page with the filename and mime type as parameters. You would then use the simple substitution to do the rest.

  • Does not respond when you click on a link hyper

    When I click on a button or a text link or similar - often nothing happens. When you connect to some sites (but not all), it will not respond to the entry of name and user password.

    Sometimes Firefox takes forever to answer - other than it is as quick as a Flash.

    If I didn't know any better, I think have been affected by a Trojan horse - but I deleted Firefox twice now and all the files associated with. I rebuilt my iMac from scratch with a freshly partitioned drive and performed a clean installation. In addition, my iMac running the latest version of Kaspersky - as it has done since purchased in 2009.

    Currently, it has been uninstalled, until I have an idea of what to try. He had 2 plug ins installed 3 weeks ago - Colorzilla and Firebug3-, but as I understand it, they are "certified" as add ons for firefox.

    Any help would be appreciated, because I depend on firefox for the development of websites Wordpress based.
