Getting the autocomplete setting to work by typing the first letter of a word

Before I installed Firefox 5.0, I had made it so that whenever I visited a website that remembered an account/password of mine, this happened:
1.- It asked for my master password.
2.- After entering it, I would click on the form field and then type in the FIRST LETTER of the account.
3.- When entering that exact first letter, Firefox would suggest in a drop-down menu the account or accounts that started with that letter on that particular site, e.g.: say I have a Twitter account that is "koko999". If I went to twitter.com and entered the letter "k" in the form field (after entering the master password), Firefox would suggest the account "koko999" in the drop-down menu.
4.- After selecting the account that I desired from the drop-down menu, Firefox would automatically autocomplete the password.
5.- Then, if I closed Firefox, all my active accounts would close/sign out. So, if afterwards I opened Firefox, I would have to repeat from Step 1 if I wanted to use an account, e.g.: if I closed FF while having my Twitter account logged in, and then opened FF again, I would have to start from Step 1.
Now, I had this setting for a bunch of different websites. After installing Firefox 5.0, this configuration vanished or something. Now, when entering the master password, Firefox autocompletes EVERYTHING. Say, using the example from before, that I go to twitter.com. Firefox asks for the master password, I enter it and then the ID/password for the twitter account automatically fills in without me entering any letter in the form field. And I do not want Firefox to do that!
So, I'm asking for help. I know that what I what to do is not impossible, I just can't find the way to do it! I kinda need the exact steps. Thanks a lot!

See:
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Password_only_filled_after_entering_user_name
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/signon.autofillForms (false)
If you are in Private Browsing then Firefox wont fill the names and passwords automatically.
You can set the pref <b>browser.sessionstore.privacy_level</b> to 2 (never) or 1 (non-HTTPS, default in Firefox 3 versions) on the <b>about:config</b> page to disable saving cookies via session restore.
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.sessionstore.privacy_level
You can also use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the "Active Logins" when you close Firefox.
To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />
You can use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a pref more easily.

  • How to Capitalize the First Letter in Every Word in Mysql

    Hi,
    I have been trying to tidy up a massive database where visitors have been sloppy when entering text. The main thing I want to do is to Capitalize The First Letter In Every Word In Mysql.
    I have found the code below in PHP but it keeps finding an error on the WHILE line:
    <?php ini_set('display_errors', '1'); ?>
    <?php require_once('Connections/maison_connection.php'); ?>
    <?php
    $result = mysql_query ("SELECT column, id FROM table");
    while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
    $id = $row["id"];
    $column2 = ucwords($row["column"]);
    $query2 = "UPDATE table SET column = '$column2′ WHERE id = '$id'";
    mysql_query($query2);
    ?>
    My table is called MailingList and the Column is called Name, so I have altered the script to this: but it still shows the same WHILE error:
    <?php ini_set('display_errors', '1'); ?>
    <?php require_once('Connections/maison_connection.php'); ?>
    <?php
    $result = mysql_query ("SELECT Name, id FROM MailingList");
    while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
    $id = $row["id"];
    $Name2 = ucwords($row["Name"]);
    $query2 = "UPDATE MailingList SET Name = '$Name2′ WHERE id = '$id'";
    mysql_query($query2);
    ?>
    Any ideas??

    I got it to work this way in SQL: I am SURE there is an abbreviated way to do it, but at least it works
    UPDATE MailingList SET Name = replace(Name," a"," A");
    UPDATE MailingList SET Name = replace(Name," b"," B");
    UPDATE MailingList SET Name = replace(Name," c"," C");
    UPDATE MailingList SET Name = replace(Name," d"," D");
    UPDATE MailingList SET Name = replace(Name," e"," E");
    UPDATE MailingList SET Name = replace(Name," f"," F");
    UPDATE MailingList SET Name = replace(Name," g"," G");
    UPDATE MailingList SET Name = replace(Name," h"," H");
    UPDATE MailingList SET Name = replace(Name," i"," I");
    UPDATE MailingList SET Name = replace(Name," j"," J");
    UPDATE MailingList SET Name = replace(Name," k"," K");
    UPDATE MailingList SET Name = replace(Name," l"," L");
    UPDATE MailingList SET Name = replace(Name," m"," M");
    UPDATE MailingList SET Name = replace(Name," n"," N");
    UPDATE MailingList SET Name = replace(Name," o"," O");
    UPDATE MailingList SET Name = replace(Name," p"," P");
    UPDATE MailingList SET Name = replace(Name," q"," Q");
    UPDATE MailingList SET Name = replace(Name," r"," R");
    UPDATE MailingList SET Name = replace(Name," s"," S");
    UPDATE MailingList SET Name = replace(Name," t"," T");
    UPDATE MailingList SET Name = replace(Name," u"," U");
    UPDATE MailingList SET Name = replace(Name," v"," V");
    UPDATE MailingList SET Name = replace(Name," w"," W");
    UPDATE MailingList SET Name = replace(Name," x"," X");
    UPDATE MailingList SET Name = replace(Name," y"," Y");
    UPDATE MailingList SET Name = replace(Name," z"," Z");

  • Is there a way to auto capitalize the first letter of every word?

    I Like To Type In This Way. I Was Wondering If There Is A Setting That Will Automatically Capitalize The First Letter Of Each Word So That I Don't Have To Keep Hitting Shift Before Each First Letter.
    Thank You

    Nice to see so many 'helpful' responses.
    This casing is useful for example, on an Address field. It would be good if the OS had this option for developers.
    I'm pretty sure it does as I've certainly had apps that, in certain fields, do use title case.

    Hi all,
    Sorry if i am posting this one as a clone. I want the first letter alone in UPPER case in the given data. Is there any specific SQL function to do it or can we do it in REGEXP?
    I have tried with this below one query.

    Is anything better than this in performance wise? If so please help me.

    what if the string is like this
    SELECT INITCAP(substr('oracle code Error ', 1, instr('oracle code Error ', ' '))) ||

  • Is their a way to turn on auto-capitalization of the first letter of every word??

    i want da first letter to be in caps without me pressing caps lock or using shift
    i.e Like This But Without Using Those Two Keys

    There have been some threads here about large-scale deployment, but I don't know whether they would help after Firefox has been installed.
    Random thought:
    I suspect (but haven't checked) that changing the "Clear Recent History" options would add corresponding entries to prefs.js in the user's profile folder. (These usually are added during Firefox shut-down.) That's just a plain text file and you could append to it by a variety of means.
    It might be possible to use a VBScript during logon to update that file before the user starts Firefox. The script would have to detect the random folder name(s) in order to make the update.

    Try searching VersionTracker for "tag editor" and perhaps you'll come up with something you can use.
    Oh, and I really don't mean this as a flame, but you waited less than twelve hours, most of those being the wee hours of the morning in the US. So you weren't likely to get a response during those times. Just to set expectations for future posts. Cheers.

  • Getting the first row of a result set

    Can someone please show me how to do this?
    Alex

    Because you're only getting one row you don't need to bother with a DISTINCT clause. You'll need to order your data first and then nab the first row from that result set.
    SELECT parm1
      FROM (SELECT   parm1
                FROM table1
               WHERE parm1 > 10
            ORDER BY parm1)

  • How can I get Mail to capitalise the first letter of a sentence?

    Hello all,
    this is my first time using apple Support Community.  i am a new apple user and have just got my first MacBookPro (its wonderful).  however, i am having some difficulties. 
    How can i get Mail to capitalize the first letter of a sentence and also capitalize 'i' as 'I' automatically?
    Also, how can i get apps like Pages to do the same? and for that matter typing into internet sites like this one? look at the lack of automatic punctuation!!
    Thank you all for any advice and tips you may have. 
    Paul.

    I don't think whether it's easier or not is really an issue.  The problem is that all of these wonderful technologies are taking away our understanding of how to communicate in writing.  It's not a matter of being lazy and not "wanting" to do it, but rather getting to a point where many people "can't" do it.
    I certainly wasn't pointing any fingers.  I use a calculator (or computer if I happen to be on one at the time) to do the most basic math calculations.  I can be out to lunch with co-workers and we have to pull out a calculator to split a bill 4 ways.  I went through school at a time when calculators were not permitted.  So, at one time, I could have easily done all of that stuff in my head.  So far as math goes, my mind has turned to mush a long time ago.  I doubt I could work my way through a long division problem at this point... even if I sat there and really tried.
    Computers were not generally consumer items when I was growing up.  So I didn't grow up in a world with spell checking.  I have certainly grown to use it though and I'm sure my ability to spell properly has diminished somewhat because of it.  I tend to be less careful when typing something out.  If I'm not sure of the spelling on something, I just let my computer either fix it or give me a suggestion for the corrected spelling.  Fortunately, I grew up having to rely on my own ability to spell, so with that foundation, I tend to do fairly well when it comes to spelling.
    We're at a point now where systems can correct grammar and sentence structure.  I think all of these are great tools to help us out, but they shouldn't be used to take the place of actually knowing how to do things.  Having said that, I'm fairly sure that is exactly what will happen.  Just as today, I rely almost entirely on some form of electronics for everyday math, I'm sure people growing up today with expert systems able to correct everything will rely on those equally.

    The new but not-ready-for-prime-time autocomplete method searches for matches that contain the entered text, not just ones that begin with the string. Your options are:
    1) type in longer strings that narrow the search
    2) use an add-on to search just the beginnings:

  • Anytime I try to print in Firefox a Microsoft KB article that is 1 page, I always only get the first page.

    Anytime I print any Microsoft KB article, I only get the first page worth of text. This is very troubling because the articles are typically long, and I only get 1 page. The second page always comes out blank (even though in IE it will print out multiple pages with all the text).
    My specific example today is listed in the URL below. This example will only print to the "DIR" command, I don't get the full page printed out.
    Anyone else have this problem? Anyone have a resolution? I hate having to hit up IE just to print a single article.
    I updated to FF 8.01 just to make sure, and I have tried different printers and even computers, to no avail. Even the print preview has the issue, only the first page worth of text is printed and the second page is always blank (even if there are 3, 4, 5, etc pages of data to be printed).
    I have also tried the Firefox Menu -> Print command, and the "on-page" print command. I have seen moderate success with highlighting all the text that I want to print and going to "Print-Selection" but it is ugly.
    Any feedback or assistance is greatly appreciated.
