Cool Firefox Tricks
Posted on Wednesday, February 6, 2008 in Technology, Web
Wanted to share a few Firefox tricks I use often. Speeds things up in the internet surfing! These are specific to Windows… but just substitute Command (Apple) key for Cntrl and it works for mac too.
Keyboard shortcuts (true in most browsers):
- Spacebar (page down)
- Shift + Spacebar (page up)
- Cntrl + D (bookmark)
- Cntrl + T (new tab)
- Cntrl + K (Search box)
- Cntrl + L (Address bar)
- F5 (Reload page)
- Cntrl + R (Reload page)
- Cntrl + Tab (Move forward thru tabs) - Mac users, use Cntrl not Command
- Cntrl + Shift + Tab (Move backward thru tabs) - Mac users, use Cntrl not Command
Auto complete
I use this one a lot. Instead of typing “www.” in the address bar before an address, just type something like “apple” in the address bar and press Cntrl + Enter. It will automatically add the “www.” and the “.com” to the address.
