Y at - it replacement Keyword.URL
I am currently using Firefox 24 and keyword. URL no longer exists in topic: config. Is there another way to possibly customize the awesome bar search engine in Firefox 24?
- UPDATE *.
I figured out how to customize the search engine bar in Firefox awesome 24. However, I'm not a big fan of the way to do it because I can't customize the search engine, I want to. You must choose from Bing, Yahoo! or Google... I use Ixquick as my search engine and when I install their Firefox search engine is not automatically the awesome bar search engine when selected.
If you do not know how you select a search engine for the awesome bar in Firefox 24 then do you... In the upper right of Firefox, where is the small search box, select the search engine of your choice to search with. This will automatically become the search engine main and Firefox awesome bar search engine if you use the default homepage on Firefox.
The search engine used in the address bar Firefox 23 + is the search engine that is selected in the search bar.
You can consider using a keyword (letter) for the search using the address bar.
You can define a keyword for a search engine that is installed through the Manage search engines (click the icon to search on the search bar engine).

My service provider broadband (Talk Talk UK) hijacked my keyword.url remotely
Today, when I entered an incorrect text string in the address bar, I was redirected to a page set by my broadband (Talk Talk UK) service provider with links sponsored of suggestions.
I should be redirected to a Google search page as my setting keyword.url is http://www.google.com/search?q=.
Keyword.url value showed still like Google, even if I was now redirected to a pub to Talk Talk.
This is apparently the Talk Talk Service error replacement & to 'opt-out', I had to restart my router.
My concern is that I don't think that this service has been installed through my Mozilla I'm quite fussy about scripts and cookies and you have not installed all the software of Talk Talk, AFAIK.
In addition, the value for keyword.url Mozilla always showed as "Google".
Finally, the fact that I had to reboot my router to choose his fish too.
I am extremely suspicious that Talk Talk have changed my settings for browser without my permission/knowledge.
This happens only now that the page has always redirected to Google before and I've been with Talk Talk for centuries.
Wouldn't think of that this company was involved with our Mozilla.
When you enter a single word in the address bar and press ENTER, Firefox can 'try' a standard fix - up such as:
www. yourword + .com
If it does not exist, your ISP can intercept the request and return a search page.
However, I think that Firefox should use the keyword. URL for all multiple word strings, because they are obviously not legal domain names, unless something has changed.
Can you confirm that the feature is enabled?
(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 the keywords and make a pause so that the list is filtered
(3) If keyword.enabled is false, double-click it to reset to true.
If this is already the case, hmmm, strange... you have bars of tools or other add-ons that might replace the built-in functionality?

Earlier, when I used to get a few words into the address bar and press ENTER, firefox would use the innovation of google by searching for the name and redirect to what I want. For example if I wrote fb, it took me to facebook, and if I wrote something ambiguous it would open a google search for the query.
Recenly, it's somehow changed. I keyword.enabled set to true and the keyword.url is http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8 & oe = UTF - 8 & sourceid = navclient & gfns = 1 & q = but when I enter something in the address bar, it uses the active engine in the search box. If I have active wikipedia in the search box and I type in google in the address bar, it takes me to the page from wikipedia to google.You can also try to use http://ready.to/search/en/ to create your own custom search engine...

Hello. I have something I want to change the default behavior, but I can't do it.
Here's what I want to do: I want to change www.google.com to www.duckduckgo.com. However, when I do CTRL + J or CTRL + K he continues to send me on www.google.com.
Here's what I did: I found that the search bar is now useless. Indeed, the "awesome bar" is so awesome that I have basically need the bar more research. Thus, for a long time, I took it.
There is only an advantage. When the search bar disappeared, the shortcut which was to place the cursor on the search bar got another behavior. When I use CTRL + K (CTRL + J), the page would automatically change to www.google.com.
I liked this behavior, because at the time, I used google as my search engine.
But now I want to duckduckgo, I'm kind of embarrassed by it, especially since I cannot change this behavior. I have re-enabled the search bar and changed the search option above to DuckDuckGo, in hopes that will change behavior. He did not.
In addition, as DuckDuckGo has said, I changed on: config keyword.url and keyword.enable.
But I still have the www.google.com when I press CTRL + K/J
I asked the question to my stream of Diaspora ( http://diasp.org ) and was able to get a solution in the day. Go figure. Before doing this, you will already have DuckDuckGo added to your list of search engine (in the drop box).
Here is the solution. With the permission of ilyse na' IMO kazar
in the subject location bar: config. You will need to confirm when you are advised that «this will void your warranty» You will see a bunch of preferences which, if you have never done this before, you never imagined exist under the hood of the FF.
In the filter bar type browser.search.defaultenginename. In the column 'Value', says Google. Double-click the word Google and a dialog appears allowing you to specify the default engine again. TypeRegeditdans DuckDuckGo exactly as it appears in the drop-down search engines available in your browser. On my Mac the magic string is "DuckDuckGo (SSL)" without the quotes.
About: config and check it, out worked for me!

I just installed Firefox 4 today. When I try to change the settings for keyword.url in topic: config to make one "I'm Felling Lucky" Google search, it just resets to chrome://browser-region/locale/region.properties whenever I restart Firefox.
Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the Add-ons is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Modules > appearance/themes).
- Makes no changes on the start safe mode window.

try to remove the mywebsearch toolbar, as I can't get the keyword url to reset
I removed the program lists mywebsearch. all helpline instructions tell me to go to about: config and r click on the keyword url, then press reset. When I click right I get nothing that describes remote reset. I tried for days
There is another method, but I advise against it unless you have no other choice, it is to manually edit the file that stores the preferences.
- Follow the instructions in the article profiles - where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data to open your profile folder.
- Closing of Firefox
- Copy the file called prefs.js to another location (just create a backup in case something goes wrong)
- Modify prefs.js with a text editor such as Notepad
- Find the line in the file that contains the keyword . URL and delete this line
- Save the file and restart Firefox to see if that fixes the problem.

How to find and replace a URL in the content
See the following page:
http://democraticpartyofgeorgia.org/events/index.cfm?fuseaction=week & SM = 9 & SD = 9 & SY = 2007
He pushes the margins way because some people type in long URLS in their description of the event (see the meeting September 10). I would like to be able to analyze the event description and replace that long url with a hyperlink where the long url is in the attribute href, but which is related is something link 'see link'. Is it possible to do? I can search for the instance of "" http:// ' of course, but can't seem to find a way to tell where the ends of the link... "Look at the ActivateURL udf to
http://www.cflib.org/UDF.cfm/activateurlIt's really more a question on a very long word of packaging. The URL is not packing, and it's what drives your margin. You need the column to encapsulate your column is a bit more liquid.
Use the wrap() function CF.
You can also go the road CSS, but the best solution I found only works on IE.

just changed after the last update of firefox. It's very embarrassing because the address bar and search bar are two different entities.
CTRL + L moves the focus to the address bar
Ctrl + A then selects all the content Ctrl + Del, or a plain Del, or Ctrl + X then deletes that content.

Guess keywords in URL does not work since FF4 update
Firefox 3 has this feature, if you typed in a keyword in the address bar and you press on enter, it would automatically direct you to the website associated with the expression. Now all what happens is I went to google.
EX: In FF3 typing 'best buy' would bring you to Bestbuy.com
Now: 'best buy' = to search google for "best buy."I did a search for a solution, after the 'correction' and "keyword.enabled" fixed, to see that they had no effect.
I realize at this point that they are unrelated to my problem.You can change the pref keyword. URL on the topic: config page to use Google's "I'm Feeling Lucky" or "Browse by name" Google.
- "I'm Feeling Lucky" Google: http://www.google.com/search?btnI=I%27m+Feeling+Lucky & ie = UTF - 8 & oe = UTF - 8 & q =
- Google "Browse by name": http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8 & sourceid = navclient & gfns = 1 & q =
