My New Tab Page does not work at all. I just have the empty squares with nothing in them at all?
I know how to use about:config & have had the usual problems with newtab page tiles but this is more like a bug- using 33.0.1. Doesn't show tiles icon in top right corner just shows a gear that is used to hide the empty tiles that I can't fill with sites. First it would only show 2 rows of 4 columns even though I had it set to 5 & 6 then few days later for no reason they went empty with a serrated line around the tiles & can't drag from the bookmarks---- really bloody annoying!!!!!!! Possibly a setting in the about:config but i can't fig it out?

Reset Firefox to its default state

  • Open in new tab preference does not work

    Although i have tried all the options in your help pages and trouble shooting pages including deleting the prefs.nj file it still does not open url's in a new tab despite that preference being selected
    == immediately i instaleed friefox

    The setting in Tools > Options > Tabs: "New pages should be opened in": "a new tab/window" is for links that specify a target window to open the link in.
    That option allows you to divert such links to a new tab or to the current tab.
    For other links you have to use a middle-click or press Ctrl and left-click or use the context menu.
    You need to left-click JavaScript links and divert them to a new tab or you get a blank tab.
    Some extensions that you can look at:
    * Tabberwocky: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/14439
    * Tab Mix Plus : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/1122

  • Under options/tabs: open new windows in a new tab instead does not work. many sites open their popups or new windows NOT in a tab as it should. How to solve this, has been a problem in the last versions incl. the latest.

    i would like the option ´open new window in new tab instead´ working properly so no new windows will be opened except when I command them to..
    as said, many websites have popups (most are blocked, still some come through) who open in a new window.

    Type '''about:config''' in the Location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key. When you see a warning, click '''I'll be careful, I promise!''' button.
    * Preferences that have been modified are shown as '''bold (user set)'''.
    * Preferences can be '''Reset to the default''' or changed via the right-click context menu.
    -> In the '''Filter bar''' type '''browser.link.open_newwindow'''
    * Right click the preference '''browser.link.open_newwindow''' and click '''Modify'''
    * change the value to '''3'''
    * click OK
    -> In the '''Filter bar''' type '''browser.link.open_newwindow.restriction'''
    * Right click the preference '''browser.link.open_newwindow.restriction''' and click '''Modify'''
    * change the value to '''0''' (zero)
    * click OK
    -> Close the '''about:config''' tab and then Restart Firefox.
    Check and tell if its working.

  • Tab key does not work

    This is very strange, please read.
    My tab key does not work. It will not move from one text field to another.
    I have checked my keyboard settings. "Full keyboard access:" is at the default "Text boxes and lists only".
    I have deleted this user and recreated the user, and with the completely new user the tab key does not work. Other users on the machine it DOES work.
    This is happening now on 3 of our 5 machines.
    Lastly, when I turn on the keyboard viewer (International/Input Menu/Keyboard viewer: it shows you what key the system thinks you are pressing when you press a key on the keyboard), it shows that when I press the tab key, the Command key is being held down instead. It's not showing that the tab key is being pressed.
    Has anyone seen this previously? Again, it's happening on 3 of our 5 machines (some users the tab key works, some users it doesn't). These are fresh user creations (no special software installed, no prefs changed, etc...)
    Thank you for any info!!!

    "Repair Disk Permissions" from Disk Utility may help.
    Also, cmd-opt-n-v (Clear NV RAM) may help as well.

  • When I am on a Youtube video that is running and I want to switch to another tab, the Ctrl+ tab number does not work, is that intended functionality?

    When I am on a Youtube video that is running and I want to switch to another tab, the Ctrl+<tab number> does not work, is that intended functionality?

    This can happen when the video player (Flash plugin) has the focus.
    In that case the plugin consumes all the key presses.
    You will have to click with the mouse elsewhere on the page or in the user interface to make keyboard shortcuts work.

  • Thumbnails in New Tab Page are not resizing

    Hey,
    Since the latest update (33.0.2), the thumbnails for the websites on the 'New Tab Page' do not resize when the window is resized, so I cannot see all the thumbnails unless the window is full screen. It used to be that if I dragged the corner of the window to make it smaller or larger, the thumbnails would resize so I could always see all of them. I'm always multi-tasking and never have the browser full screen so it is a bit annoying.
    Any help would be appreciated, thanks
    Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit
    FireFox 33.0.2

    Thanks for the reply Cory.
    The issue that jscher2000 had is basically the same problem I'm having, but rather than just making all the thumbnails permanently smaller, I would like to restore the previous functionality that would resize them as needed. It always worked great until just a few days ago when I installed the latest update.
    Using jscher2000's solution would help, but not completely fix it... I can use that solution if that's the only thing I can do, but I would much rather get the previous method back.
    Thanks again, I would love to hear if anyone thinks they have the fix.

  • Go back one page does not work

    Since I had to reinstall Firefox 3.6.15, the "go back one Page" does not work in many cases. Sometimes by clicking on history and manually returning, it works. Id there a fix for this problem, because it is new.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • How come the form in the JSP page does not work if user hits "ENTER"

    When I use the following code for loginpage.jsp
    If the user hits ENTER on the keyboard it just displays the same form with nothing in the username box.
    It works if the user clicks the button.
    <HTML>
    <BODY>
    <%
    String submit = request.getParameter("submit");
    if(submit == null){
    %>
    <FORM METHOD=POST ACTION=loginpage.jsp>
    Please enter your username: <INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME=username SIZE=20>
    <INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT NAME=submit VALUE='Go!'>
    </FORM>
    <%
    else {
    String user = request.getParameter("username");
    if(user == null) {
    // display same page
    } else {
    // foward to next page
    %>
    </BODY>
    </HTML>

    I adjusted my code but it still does nto work when hitting the ENTER keyboard button.
    <HTML>
    <BODY onload="document.form1.left.focus();">
    <%
    String submit = request.getParameter("submit");
    if(submit == null){
    %>
    <FORM METHOD=POST ACTION=loginpage.jsp>
    Please enter your username: <INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME=username SIZE=20>
    <INPUT TYPE="button" name="left" value="LEFT" onlick="alert(this.name)">
    <INPUT TYPE="button" NAME="right" VALUE="RIGHT" onclick="alert(this.name)">
    </FORM>
    <%
    else {
    String user = request.getParameter("username");
    if(user == null) {
    // display same page
    } else {
    // foward to next page
    %>
    </BODY>
    </HTML>
    If I do this
    <FORM METHOD=POST ACTION=nextpage.jsp>
    And use ENTER keyboard button it works, but not when I have ACTION to teh same page.
    Why is that?
    Is this JSP related or HTML? I thought JSP had something to do with it since it's JSP file.
