Can i make firefox my hompage and customize the page with themes and content like yahoo does

i want to be able to have firefox homepage and have themes and content on the whole page not just the toolbar portion. on yahoo i can do this but i am tired of them and want to change to firefox for my homepage if i can change the whole page.

The built-in Firefox home page doesn't have widgets like My Yahoo. You may be able to find a good add-on for that, or you could consider the other sites that popped up when Google discontinued the iGoogle home page.

  • Can I make 10.10 look and feel like 10.6 ?

    Hi ... I upgraded my late iMac mini 2009 (2.53Mhz) to 10.10 .
    First, contrary to some posters on these boards, I would not recommend, 10.10 runs very slow .... you are much better off in an older OS (I would love to go back to 10.6)
    Some advantages of 10.10 is that your machine is up to date with the world (where 10.6 is losing support in the real world).
    My biggest gripe with 10.10 : is I can't find things, can't move things ... the finder window is useless ; the machine search in the middle of screen annoys me and limits information and options.
    Is there any way I can make 10.10 feel and look more like 10.6 ?
    thx

    You can set  SystemPreferences->Accessability->Displays to "increase contrast": check this one and then slide the contrast slider to the left completely.
    There was a little app that recersed the scroll direction in the SnowLeopard period for people who did not want the scroll direction of Lion and later: you can try it https://pilotmoon.com/scrollreverser/
    But it will still be very different from SnowLeopard.
    Otherwise you can go back to SnowLeopard if your mac was built in the (Snow)Leopard time, like Pete suggests.

  • How can i make Event witch is started before the page render.

    hello i want to do this :
    when i open some JSP no matter from where i want to have a backing bean for this jsp that have a method that starts before the render response.
    my ideas is to have a list of records from a sql server and i need a method that makes a conncetion to the sql server and add everythink in the request so when the jsp is displayed to have content.
    i need example of the backingbean method paste plz.

    I think you can add the sql coneection and all those initial things to the constractor of the bean which contains the variable u need in the page..
    and leave the getters and setters of those variables empty..
    if the DB changes frequently, you can make the scope of the bean: page scope
    otherwise let it be session scope..

  • How can I make Quicktime Player 7 appear in the "Open With" menu?

    Well, the subject says it all, I think.
    I have installed SL, and now I want Quicktime Player 7 to appear in the right-click menu "Open With".
    I have tried to rebuild the launch services database like this:
    /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchSe rvices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user
    But to no avail.

    I got curious and checked a couple of things with right click. Some items show QT7 as an option, some don't. One .mov file that didn't had as the default ( ! ) something called "QuickTime Player Launcher" so I went ahead and used that to see what would happen, and QT7 did indeed launch and play the movie. Yet another .mov file that showed "QT Player Launcher" and no QT7 turned out to open in QTX. The first one was made in Leopard, the second was made in Snow Leopard using QTX screen capture. Other older .mov files with the "QT Player Launcher" default open in QTX. I remain baffled by a LOT of the behavior with QT7 and QTX.

  • How can I make firefox prefill username and password

  • How can I make an image (gif) go over the screen with javascript?

    Hello,
    I'm working on a website for an archery club. Everything works great but I want an arrow going from one side to the other on a certain moment.
    I cannot find a script that works like I want. The image should start out of the screen and has to leave on the other side with a certain speed.
    I'm not able to write such a script myself. I'm not certain how or when it should start but I can fix that in the script I guess.
    Thanks for any help,
    Regards,

  • How can I make my footer full width of the screen with a fluid grid layout in CSS?

    Any Ideas?
    #footer {
      clear: both;
      color: #FFFFFF;
      min-width: 100%;   // I have tried max-width and width as well.
      margin-right: 0px;
      margin-left: 0px;
      background-repeat: repeat-x;
      background-image: url(/images/footer.jpg);
    I know it is being over-ridden by
    .gridContainer {
      width: 88.5%;
      max-width: 1232px;
      padding-left: 0.75%;
      padding-right: 0.75%;
      margin: auto;
      clear: none;
      float: none;

    Move your <footer> tag below the closing .gridContainer </div> tag.

  • How can I/Can I make Firefox the default .PDF viewer in Windows 7?

    For the basic PDF viewing I do, Adobe Reader is just slow and annoying. I love using Firefox, but unfortunately I cannot set it as the default program to open PDF files. Even when I select Firefox after right clicking and select open with, Windows does not comply. Is there a config option I can change that will allow me to set Firefox as the default PDF reader.
    Thank you for your help.

    You can not make Firefox the default for viewing PDF files for the entire Windows Operating System, only the default viewer from within Firefox. Like when PDF files that are downloaded from websites and displayed in Firefox; you can try using '''File > Open File''' from within Firefox to view PDF file that are already saved on that PC, but I'm not sure that will work - I haven't tried doing that.

  • How can I male Firefox open YouTube app for youtube pages and videos?

    I tried to watch a video on youtube page, but I got a message saying that video wasn't available for mobile devices. I really wanted to watch that video, so I tried exactly the same page with android's browser... guess what? the browser sent the link to youtube app and I watched the video with no problem.
    So, how can I make Firefox call youtube app instead of lie to me?
    An example: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=2zI4Hl02898&feature=youtu.be&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3D2zI4Hl02898%26feature%3Dyoutu.be

    I just realize that it happens to vimeo too, except for the fact that there's no android little icon... and I have no vimeo app installed in my device (and I don't intend to install). And guess what (again)? Android's browser plays vimeo videos with no problem! I don't know if it calls android's video player (since it starts fullscreen right when I touch play button) or whatever, the fact is that Firefox keeps lying to me. it's disappointing... =/

  • When firefox failed to show a webpage, it will show a button "try again" for me to click. Can I make firefox auto-click the button or auto-retry until the webpage shows?

    When firefox failed to show a webpage, it will show a button "try again" for me to click. Can I make firefox auto-click the button or auto-retry until the webpage shows? And, it's reversible when I untick something in the tools/edit options. It's frustrating when I'm opening a few browsers and all of them fails at the same time that I've to click "try again" for every browser. Thanks.

    Hello Susan.
    It's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and themes and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
    If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.
    If the problem is not disappears when all add-ons are disabled, please tell me, so we can work from there.

  • How can I make Firefox recognise that I have changed the DNS servers to use?

    After I edit /etc/resolv.conf to make my computer use more reliable DNS servers, Firefox doesn't notice until I restart it. How can I make Firefox notice the change without restarting it?

    I discovered that I can do this by ticking Work Offline in the File menu, and then immediately unticking it again.
    (I believe this mimics what would happen if the operating system disconnected and reconnected from a wireless network, which would be a situation where Firefox would need to check for new DNS servers. So that explains why it works.)
