Google search result page jumps back to top when opening a result in a new tab

hello
when searching from www.google.com, using 100 search results per page.
i will scroll down the page, find a hit worth looking at, right click on it to open it in a new tab, and then immediately the search result page will jump back to the top.
whereupon i will have to again scroll down to where i was to look a subsequent search results :-(

  • How do I make Firefox Google Search text that is not a website when drag and dropped to a new tab or existing one

    Exactly what the title says. Firefox did this before updating to 5 if I'm not mistaking. I want Firefox to Google search text when I drag it to the tabs bar (when an arrow pointing in between tabs appears). From there a new tab with the Google search should appear normally.

    Title and description may be clear to you it is certainly not clear to me.
    If I drag "title and description" which is not a url and try to create a new tab with it nothing will happen. I can drag that text to the the search bar and do a search.
    If I grabbed a url which was text not shown as a link I can drag to the location bar, the new tab button, to a tab, between two tabs and that is all legitimate.
    I can drag a ''[http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/kws.htm link]" without selecting it in the same manner the location bar, the new tab button, to a tab, between two tabs and that is all legitimate.
    I cant see that you have lost what it sounds like you had because I don't think you would have generated a search in that manner. You can certainly drag something like a sentence to the search bar, so even if you were the only one that could do start a search by dragging text you can still drag it to the search bar.

  • Help with actionscript to make page jump back to top

    Ok so I wanted the page to jump back to the top when the
    buttons are pressed. I found some help in an old thread. It worked
    great but for the first button only that i put the script on. All
    the others don't work at all. Even if its the same button just on a
    different frame. Not sure what i am doing wrong at all. I really
    don't know anything about actionscript so if anyone can please help
    me. Below is the script that i added to the tree buttons and the
    script i added to the html code.
    thanks- joe
    Button1:
    on (release) {
    nextFrame();
    import flash.external.*;
    flash.external.ExternalInterface.call('pageTop');
    Button2:
    on (release) {
    gotoAndStop(1);
    import flash.external.*;
    flash.external.ExternalInterface.call('pageTop');
    Button 3:
    on (release) {
    prevFrame();
    import flash.external.*;
    flash.external.ExternalInterface.call('pageTop');
    At the top of my html:
    <head>
    <script http-equiv="Content-Script-Type"
    content="text/javascript">
    function pageTop() {
    window.scrollTo(0,0);
    </script>

    you don't need all the import statements but the problems are
    likely caused by your buttons failure to exist when the timeline
    goes to the frame indicated in the line above the externalinterface
    call().

  • I Hate Bing and when I click on a Firefox NEW Tab and search I keep getting Bing results, I used to get Google which I would like back, my homepage when opening Firefox is not Bing but all tab searches retrieve Bing results.

    My homepage when opening Firefox is not Bing, yet for some reason today it started using Bing instead of Google for my NEW tab search results. I already deleted Bing from the search bar, no results. Deleted Bing from my computer's control panel. I just want to be able to click a new tab and have my results in google as I always have.

    hello, you have a malicious addon present on your pc. <br>please go to ''firefox > addons > extensions'' & remove ''LyricsParty''.
    also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there and run a full scan of your system with the security software that you have in place and different other tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] & [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner].

  • Firefox upon opening an image in a new tab, centers the image from top and bottom and surrounds the image with a grey frame. Just started having the problem today, searched Google to no avail.

    Firefox upon opening an image in a new tab, centers the image from top and bottom and surrounds the image with a grey frame. Just started having the problem today, searched Google to no avail.

    Oh wow, looks like a new feature.
    The "page" links in a stylesheet with the address "resource://gre/res/TopLevelImageDocument.css". If you remove that reference, then the image displays in the old style.
    '''''Edit: Please skip the rest of this post and check out the next one.'''''
    There might be a more elegant solution than that, but you could use a bookmarklet to strip out that link when you want to view the page in its old style. A bookmarklet is a snippet of JavaScript you save on the Bookmarks toolbar for quick access.
    First, copy the following code to the clipboard (it's all one long line):
    <br>javascript:var ssheet=document.querySelector('link[href="resource://gre/res/TopLevelImageDocument.css"]'); if(ssheet)ssheet.parentNode.removeChild(ssheet); void 0;
    Next, if you are not displaying the Bookmarks Toolbar, use View > Toolbars > Bookmarks Toolbar to display it. (If you aren't using the classic Menu bar, press Alt+v to call up the old View menu. Right-clicking the gray area just below the page address also allows you to display the Bookmarks Toolbar.)
    Right-click on the Bookmarks Toolbar (or Mac equivalent of right-click!) and choose New Bookmark.
    Paste the code into the Location box (the second box).
    Then type a useful name in the Name box (e.g., Oldstyle Picture) and click Add.
    Now, when you want to tweak the image display, click the button to run the script.
    Manual clicking is a hassle, so it might make sense to look into other solutions. (Greasemonkey didn't seem to work; I think it might not run on .jpg files.)

    I am using Lightroom 5 and am hapy about it, but recently I hav encountered a problem when trying to edit an image in another program, i.e. Elements. I used the clone tool, saved the result and went back to Lightroom to open the image there. I did find a second copy, but this is identic with the one I already had in Lightroom, and I can see noe result of the clone process.

    At the moment I would say it is uncertain whether Acrobat is completely ignoring the change, or whether the changes you are making aren't affecting the ink density. I have a suggestion for a test you could make to see which is the case.
    When editing in Photoshop just add a box or mark on the image, for your tests.
    - If this box does not appear in Acrobat, you know Acrobat is not seeing the edit
    - If this box does appear in Acrobat, you know the problem is that your tool for changing ink densities is not taking effect.

  • Playhead jumps back two beats when hitting play

    Playhead jumps back two beats when I press play for one of my GarageBand projects; doesn't occur in other projects.  Is there an obscure setting that will fix this problem?
    This occurs whether I'm playing or recording.  It occurs with or without cycle region.  If the cycle region is turned on, the playhead will jump to two beats before the beginning of the region before starting the cycle playback.
    "Count In" turned off. 
    This issue sapped my entire evening; any help would be appreciated a lot!

  • When I click a link, it changes to the new page instead of opening the link in a new tab.

    I've gone to the options section several times and the right settings are in place but it still doesn't open in a new tab. I've never had this problem before. Should I change back to 3.6 or 4 beta? This problem occurs on the newest update. I believe it's 4.0.1 or something like that...I just loaded it yesterday. How can I fix this? Thank you.

    It's normal for links to open in the same tab as you browse if you left-click. You can Ctrl+click or middle click to open a link in a new tab. Are either of those broken?
    Some sites let you use a regular left click to open a link in a new tab (example: Google search settings), and some add-ons may change link behavior. Can you check whether one of your add-ons has been disabled?
    Tools > Add-ons > Extensions
    Also, if you use the Ask toolbar, try disabling it and see whether that makes any difference.

  • I would like to delete a google pref cookie that re-establishes itself instantly even when I am on a blank new tab that looks like this: PREF ID=eb1514ca52c9d

    What page are you using for your new tab page? Is it completely blank or is it the page with the thumbnails, but with the thumbnails hidden (in that case, there usually is a grid-like icon on the upper right side of the page)?
    You can check the current setting here:
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''newtab''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Double-click the '''browser.newtab.url''' preference and enter your preferred page if it isn't what you want:
    * ''Page thumbnails (default)'' => about:newtab
    * ''Blank tab'' => about:blank
    * ''Built-in Firefox home page'' => about:home
    * ''Any other page'' => full URL to the page
    Press Ctrl+t to open a new tab and verify that it worked. Fixed?
    But... extensions can override this setting. If you are getting a page other than the one you specified, that could be explanation.
    Any luck?

  • I click a link and it opens on the current page and a new tab, how do i keep the first tab on the current page and only have the link clicked on appear in the new tab?

    I go to click a link for any site and it opens the link in the current page and a new tab. I only want it to open the link in the new tab. I want to keep the original tab what it was.

    you can try to write some web driver to do this particular job for you, one such driver is Selenium. know more about it at https://code.google.com/p/selenium/downloads/list.
    But this thing will need a good programming skill. Otherwise you have Adblock plus addon (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/adblock-plus/), you can try this. you can also contact its developer to include this particular facility also in this add on

  • When I open a website in a new tab (like a forum) it will start on the last page and at the bottom. So I have to scroll up. Is there a setting for this?

    I open my favorite forums website. When I open a thread in a new tab the window starts at the bottom. I have to scroll up to see the top of the thread.

    Does it do it if you run Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]? If it functions properly in that configuration, then one of your add-ons is the culprit.

  • When returning to a google search, Firefox takes me to the top of the page

    I use Firefox exclusively as my browser. I also use Google as my default home page. I execute a google search, and am presented with a list of several pages of web sites. As I work my way through each of these sites, I wish to return to my search results and select the next item listed. When doing so, Firefox always returns me to the top of the list. I must then page down through the list and remember where I left off and select the next search item. Can this be fixed? Are my settings wrong? How can I prevent this?
