How do I disable autocorect in Firefox

I want to know how to disable Autocorrect in Firefox

Seems you need the feature as much as I do, but it is not in Firefox.
By default Firefox does not check spelling on single line text boxes either.
What do you type that automatically gets corrected, because I've never seen it happen in Firefox. Are you perhaps using an external editor. Is this at a particular website.
I can't find an add-on for that at addons.mozilla.org either.

  • How can I disable prompts for Firefox updates on a Terminal Server (Citrix)?

    Does any know how I can disable updates and update prompting in Citrix for Firefox 3.6?
    I've got a 3rd party application that has lots of problems in Firefox 4, so I can't upgrade at this time. I just want to stop users from getting this prompt.

    Thank you for the quick reply, but I've already tried that, it only affects the one user that un-checks the box. All other users still get prompted.
    I'm trying to avoid having to have every single user go through this process.

  • How can i disable scrolling on firefox mobile ?

    I want to disable scrolling for my responsive website, when a colorbox (like a lightbox) is layered over the page (as div, not as iframe).
    Scrolling should only be available for the colorbox-div, but not for body or html.
    Therefore, I set "html" and/or "body" to "overflow:hidden" with the help of jquery. That works in chromium mobile and in the desktop versions of FF and chromium, but I can't figure out why I still have the scrollbar in Firefox on Android.
    Is this a know 'problem'? What can I do?

  • How can I disable Safemode in Firefox 24.2.0

    Hi
    We use FFox in a corporate environment due to issues with IE on certain intranet pages.
    The existing version 17 had a number of files that we used to customise and lock down firefox, ie preventing users going in in safe mode etc.
    These files no longer appear to be present in v24.2.0
    I need to prevent users from pressing the shift key and entering ffox in safemode as they could disable/remove the plugins we use to assist locking down the application.
    Can someone please advise on how I can achieve this in this version.
    thanks

  • How do I disable autofill in Firefox Mobile (Android)?

    I've found all sorts of people asking this for the desktop version, but what about for mobile? The autofill information gets in the way of the rest of the screen on phones, so is more harmful than useful, and I'd like to disable it, but I can't figure out how. Thanks.

    To disable form fill in Firefox for Android:
    # Type "about:config" in the Firefox location bar, and press Enter or Go
    # Search for "formfill"
    # Tap on the "browser.formfill.enable" preference, then press the toggle switch to change it from "true" to "false"

  • How can I disable javascript in Firefox 30 for all users on my Solaris 10 x86 box?

    I have a Solaris 10 box in a secure environment (no Internet) with Firefox 30 installed. I need to lock javascript in a disabled state for all users. I realize each individual user can toggle javascript with about:config, but that is only a per/user activity. I want to set the value of javascript.enabled to false for all users. Additionally, no user should be able to modify this setting.
    Is there a location with a config or prefs file that will affect all users?

  • How do I disable tabs in Firefox 4?

    Tabkiller existed for Firefox 3, and served those of us that *hate* the TDI interface of Firefox.
    I already have a window manager to manage my windows, I don't need another one, thank you very much.
    Please let me know if there's a hidden setting for disabling the damn things. It's the only thing keeping me from using FF4.

    i dont know why it worked, but had two tabs open and i dragged one of the tabs down to the desktop. it gave me two instances of firefox. Since then i dont have tabs in firefox 4. might be just a bug, but i hope they dont fix it until they give us a way to turn tabs off officially.

  • How do I disable OCSP in Firefox Mobile?

    At my university, they recently started using securelogin.arubanetworks.com as a portal, and it seems that all versions of Firefox don't like it. Disabling OCSP supposedly solves the problem, but there is not option to do so on Firefox Mobile that I can see.

    I am aware, however, it seems there are no advanced setting in Firefox Mobile.

  • How to remove disabled plugin in Firefox

    I have three Firefox Plugins which are disabled, but no means to remove same, and they do not show up Microsoft Uninstall or Change a Program Panel.

    You can set the plugin.expose_full_path pref to true on the about:config page to see the full path of plugins on the about:plugins page.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Issues_related_to_plugins#Identifying_installed_plugins
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:plugins
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:config
    It is best not to leave that pref set to true as it exposes that full path to web servers via the navigator.plugins object, so reset that pref to false after you are done with the about:plugins page.

  • How do i disable the irksome redirect drop down menu

    how do i disable the irksome "firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page" drop down box?
    thank you
    mark

    See:
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"
    The setting in "Tools > Options > Advanced > General" is meant as an accessibility feature, as you can see by the label of that section, so that people with disabilities or people who use screen readers do not get confused and is not meant as a safety protection to stop redirecting.

  • How can I disable Firefox from automatically opening on system startup on my Mac - unchecking the "open at login" does not work?

    We have Firefox 10.o on our Macbook Pro OS X 10.5.8. I prefer using Firefox as my browser but my husband prefers Safari for now because of a long history of bookmarks and saved information he doesn't have time to re-do. He is tired of Firefox automatically opening when we start up the laptop, and even when we uncheck the "open at login" it still opens at login every time. He is about to uninstall it because of this. How can we disable? It does NOT show up in our account on the Mac OS as an application that starts at login, so we can't disable it there.

    For those of you running Windows, I found this on another site. (Unfortunately, not before getting totally disgusted and switching to chrome.)
    1. click start (or the windows flag button at the bottom left) 2. in the "search programs and files" or the RUN dialog box, enter "msconfig.exe" or "msconfig". 3. That should open the system configuration program. 4. click the "Startup" tab at the top of the opened program. 5. Under the "startup item" column, look for Mozilla firefox. 6. uncheck that one. 7. Click OK or apply. 8. click "exit without restart". 9. you're good to go.

  • The windows of the Windows bar are already a form of tabs, so I don't need them in Firefox. How can I disable them completely from Firefox 23?

    RE: TABS ARE WINDOWS!
    The Windows bar already functions as a tab bar. Those tabs are called "windows." So, I find Firefox tab windows superfluous. How can I disable them completely from Firefox 23? I don't need what is essentially TWO windows bars covering up the entire width of my widescreen monitor's image! I already have a Windows bar at the bottom of my screen and, if I really wanted to, I could change ITS position to the top of the screen, so that it would LOOK like the Firefox tab windows bar. Firefox TABS are, essentially, a superfluous SECOND WINDOWS BAR.
    Here are my reasons for why I'd rather use Mozilla's Firefox, than Microsoft's Internet Explorer or Google's Chrome. I love and admire Firefox for Mozilla's intent on good security, for Firefox's Personas add-on, and for Firefox's free use of the Ad-Block add-on which, as you know, has the distinct virtue of reducing screen clutter--the last of which is my motive for wanting to get rid of the SUPERFLUOUS Firefox tabs "windows" bar. I am dreadfully sick of companies forcing miscellaneous bars (mostly representing marketing campaigns trying to sell me something) into my browser (and down my throat) every time I download something. (In case you haven't guessed, I am deliberately referring to your Firefox tabs bar as a "Firefox tabs 'windows' bar," because TABS are WINDOWS!)

    Let me clarify even more. The Firefox add-on you mention does not remove "tabs" windows. It only HIDES the "tabs" bar when there is only one "tab" in that window. It DOES NOT end "tabs." It does not turn "tabs" off.
    I know this, because, even with the add-on you recommend, the "tabs" bar often re-appears when I open a link, which--for some unknown reason--Firefox defaults to opening in a second "tab" within the same window, rather than putting it in a new Windows bar window. This, of course, disregards what I want to happen.
    I want to use my Windows bar to control my windows. I do not want my Firefox browser controlling my windows--which it calls "tabs." Can you tell me how to shut off "tabs?"
