Firefox search engine results not appearing in a new tab

how do i configure FF (3.6.13) to display search engine results on a new tab? It used to do this for me but now doesn't anymore, and I can't find any config settings to change this.

Type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and hit Enter. <br />
''If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.''
'''browser.search.openintab''' is the preference, '''true''' is the value.

  • I would like to know how to force Firefox search box results to open in a new tab?

    Results from any entry into the Firefox search box currently return in the tab that's open, regardless the location.
    Is there a way to force "open in a new tab" without having to open a blank tab to keep the results from changing the current tab to the search resource location?

    For the Google search bar on the Navigation toolbar you can set the pref browser.search.openintab to true on the about:config page.

  • How do I get Google search bar results to open in a new tab instead of the current tab?

    When I use the Google search box, I would like the search results to open in a new tab instead of the current tab.

    It turns out there is an about:config setting just for this purpose. Toggle browser.search.openintab to 'true', and all is well.

  • How do I change the search engine that displays when opening a new tab-Bing comes up and I want Google.

    I'm using Firefox 15 on a Mac and there don't seem to be any extensions affecting this. Thanks!

    Is that about searching via the build-in the about:home page?
    Reset the <b>browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone</b> pref via the right-click context menu to the default on the <b>about:config</b> page and close and restart Firefox to restore the about:home page to its default.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:config
    #Open the <b>about:config</b> page via the location bar
    #Type in the Filter bar: mstone
    #Right-click the browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone line and select: Reset
    #Close and restart Firefox
    If this didn't help then delete the delete the chromeappsstore.sqlite file in the Firefox Profile Folder and repeat the above.

  • Firefox 5.0 does not open link into new window

    Firefox 5.0 does not open link into new tab. I have a netbook also and tab options work fine, links open into a new window. However on this Dell it does not work. Tab options in Firefox and Google are set right, but don't work that way. Running Windows 7 on Dell, Windows Starter on netbook.

    The Template .dwt file is only used locally by DW itself, there's no reason to upload it to the server unless you intend to share it with someone. You have to upload each individual page that the Template updates, every time you update the template and propagate that change across the child pages.
    It would probably be better to use a server side include. That way, you could update one file then upload it and all of your pages would automatically carry that update...

    It's especially handy if your site gets to the point where you have more than about 20 pages.

    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings and disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
    ''(If you're using an added theme, switch to the Default theme.)''
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu by clicking on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item:<br>

    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''

  • Is there any way to search for a term using the Firefox search field, and have the results automatically open in a new tab?

    Is there any way to search for a term using the Firefox search field, and have the results automatically open in a new tab? When there was support for Google Toolbar, I was able to do this; now, whenever I want to search for something, I have to open a new tab to do it, and cut-and-paste my search into the search field in the new tab. I used to be able to highlight, drag, and drop something into the search field and have it automatically open in a new tab. This is enough for me to switch to Chrome . . .

    Set a preference to have searches from the Search Bar (upper right) automatically open all searches in a new tab
    #type '''about:config''' in the URL/Location/Address bar and press the Enter key
    #if you see a warning, accept it (promise to be careful)
    #Filter = '''browser.search.openintab'''
    #in the lower panel, double click the item (or right-click and choose "Toggle") to change the value to "true"
    #close the about:config tab and test
    #See:
    #*For help with opening/using about:config, also see: http://kb.mozillazine.org/About:config

    About Google toolbar............
    Google decided that they will no longer produce the Google Toolbar for Firefox 5 and newer version. It is best to move on to other alternatives than to try any "hacks" to the toolbar that may or may not perform in the future. Future versions of Google toolbar will only work with IE7-9. Google Toolbar is not available on any other browser, even Google's own browser.

  • First i open google search page.after seeing the results if i click in any site the site appears in a new tab.how can i stop this?

    these days i face this problem.whenever i click on a site it appears in a new tab.how can i stop it?

    The Google Search setting has an option '''Where results open'''. If it is selected, you can try deselecting that. If it doesn't solve the problem, please check if this happens in [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe%20Mode Safe Mode]. Safe mode disables the installed '''Extensions''', and themes ('''Appearance''') in '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Add-ons'''. Hardware acceleration is also temporarily disabled - the manual setting is '''Tools''' > '''Options''' > '''Advanced''' > '''General''' > [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Options%20window%20-%20Advanced%20panel?as=u '''Use hardware acceleration when available''']. All these settings/options/add-ons can also be individually or collectively disabled/enabled/changed in Firefox normal mode to check if an extension, theme, option or hardware acceleration is causing issues. Disabling/enabling hardware acceleration, and some types of add-ons in normal mode may require a Firefox restart.

  • How can i optimize my SEARCH ENGINE???I use godaddy.i contact them and they give me this conclusion:Search engines are not pulling up your other pages on your website because it is created with javascript. the content on the pages, (photo gallery.....

    conclusion from godaddy:
    Search engines are not pulling up your other pages on your website because it is created with javascript.
    the content on the pages, (photo gallery, My Recipes/Blog, History, Friends) need to be formatted to HTML, PHP or CSS. No search engines (google, Yahoo, Bing) can crawl//analyze webpages built with javascript.
    See if Apple allows iweb to create the pages in HTML format and ask how to make those changes.
    I spend more then 1 hour on the phone with them but we didn't find the solution...
    please i need help because like this nobody can rich my website...
    www.chefdiego.com
    thank you

    The part of iWeb pages that give the search engines problem is the navbar.  That's javascript based.  One way to get around that is to create another blank page in the site that's not  included in the navbar. 
    Add a text based navbar in that page with just the other pages in the site. 
    Also you can use that page for creating the sitemap for Google at Create your Google Sitemap Online - XML Sitemaps Generator.
    Have you let Google know your site exists? This website describes how to get it recognized: Get your iWeb website found in search engines like Google Yahoo MSN and Bing.
