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 do I get the Back Button drop down menu back?

    When surfing in a tab there used to be a drop down menu next to the forward and back buttons. It was a little tiny triangle looking arrow. This was really useful and needed. It is gone in Firefox 4 as far as I can see. I am using the default 4.0 Theme. If it is not there anymore I will have to go going back to 3.16 if the drop down menu is gone. Thanks for any help.

    I do prefer Right-click on tab for tab history, or hold a couple of seconds, as the drop-down marker takes up space and had been removing it myself. Although I think it should have been an option.

  • How do I get the VISA resource drop down menu to be auto populated in my stand alone application (exe file)?

    Hi all,
    Here's a hopefully simple question.
    I am building an application (i.e. an exe file) from a simple program which use VISA to read and write to a RS-232 com port. When I run it before building the application everything works fine and the VISA resource control, which is a drop down menu, is automatically populated with available com ports. When I run the application on a computer without LabVIEW installed nothing appears in this window. I have made an installer which includes NI LabVIEW Rutime Engine 8.5, NI Measurement & Automation Explorer 4.3 and NI-DAQmx 8.6.1. Is there anything else I need to include? Any specific settings I need to do when I build the exe-file?
    I use LabVIEW 8.5.
    Thank you.
    Solved!

    DAQmx is only for NI DAQ cards so I'm not sure why you installed that. The driver for VISA applications is NI-VISA (surprise!)
    Add the NI-VISA run-time to your installer.

  • How do I stop the toolbar from dropping down when I load a program?

  • How to find the size and resolution option in the aspect ratio drop down menu for the crop tool

    Yes, definitely already differences. I sympathize with Photoshop instructors (online and offline).
    The headline change was Retina support but that was also made available to non-Cloud versions.

  • How do I put my tabs back up beside the orange firefox drop down menu?

    I have an Acer Mini. In order to optimize screen space, I closed most of the toolbars down, leaving the navigation bar and the tabs on top. They appeared in the blue space beside the orange "firefox" drop down menu. I turned away from the laptop to tend to my baby and when I turned back, my 2 yr old was mashing keys. I don't know what he did, but now I can't get the tabs back up there.

  • The "Clear Search History" feature in the upper right drop-down menu no longer works in Firefox 4.

    The "Clear Search History" feature in the upper right drop-down menu that shows search terms no longer seems to work in Firefox 4.

    It is possible that there is a problem with the file that stores the "Saved Form" data.<br />
    Rename or delete formhistory.sqlite (plus formhistory.sqlite-journal and formhistory.sqlite.corrupt and formhistory.dat, if they exist) in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder] in case there is a problem with the file that stores the "Saved Form" data.<br />
    This will remove all saved form data, so you may want to rename formhistory.sqlite to formhistory.sqlite.sav or move the file to another folder in case you need to recover some saved data.
    You may also need to delete search.sqlite and search.json in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder]

  • How can I get rid of "History and Bookmarks" section from the search history drop down menu in safari 6.0.2?

    Let's just say I have saved bookmarks of things that i do NOT want my friends to see when they use my computer occasionally. I know they could go and find these bookmarks anyway in the bookmarks menu but they dont snoop around my computer. i would rather it not just pop up when they go to search for something or type in a webpage. If there is no way to customize what shows up in the drop down menu for search results then that is something apple overlooked. Not everybody wants things all in one place. Whats the point of deleting search history and website history if its just going to show the certain things you have bookmarked? Any solution to this would be appreciated. One solution i thought would work was disabling search from suggesting, but i guess that only supresses the webpages not the url/search bar. Oh and this is for safari 6.0.2 please dont give me outdated advice.
    Thanks

  • I use QVC online a lot. When hovering over a catagory headings at the top of the page, a drop down menu shows a list of subcategories. Is this feature available in Firefox 4 & 5? If so, how do I turn it on?

    I use QVC online a lot. When hovering over a category heading in IE9 a drop down menu appears with detailed subheadings for that category. Is this feature available in Firefox versions 4 and 5? Is this something that can be turned on in Firefox 4 & 5? If so, how do I turn this feature on?

    Hey Dave,
    How did you get on with this?
    Have you tried CSS position:fixed?  I have been playign around with it on my own project  (and in fact are just about to post a related question)  and can confirm that it works with a plain old DIV.
    SVG I can't be sure though..
    Certainly give it a try.

  • How do I delete web site addresses that appear in the navigation window drop-down menu?

    In Explorer you can quickly delete any web address in the navigation window drop-down list. Also, only addresses that I actually type into the navigation window appear in the drop-down. I like this system.
    But in Firefox, I cannot discern the rules at work. Web addresses appear and disappear in the drop-down list seemingly at random, and no way to delete addresses.

    Selecting "Never Remember History" will make you enter [[Private Browsing]] mode, so be careful with selecting that.

  • Why is the browser hijacker Vosteran listed in the search engine drop down menu?

    New download of Firefox 33.1 has a known browser hijacker listed in the drop down menu. It took me several hours to remove it's damaging files and get any browser to work correctly again. This is insane!

    Hi mach37, can you delete the Vosteran search engine by highlighting it on the Search panel of the Options dialog and using the Remove button?
    ''If it comes back:'' I would suspect a bad add-on. Here's my suggested procedure for tracking down and cleaning those up:
    (1) Open the Windows '''Control Panel''', Uninstall a Program (on XP: Add/Remove Programs). After the list loads, click the "Installed on" column heading to group the infections, I mean, additions, by date. This can help in smoking out undisclosed bundle items that snuck in with some software you agreed to install. Take out as much trash as possible here.
    (2) Open Firefox's '''Add-ons page''' using either:
    * Ctrl+Shift+a
    * "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
    In the left column, click '''Plugins'''. Set nonessential and unrecognized plugins to "Never Activate".
    In the left column, click '''Extensions'''. Then, if in doubt, disable (or Remove, if possible) unrecognized and unwanted extensions.
    Often a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
    Any improvement?
    (3) You can search for remaining issues with the '''scanning/cleaning tools''' listed in our support article: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]]. These on-demand scanners are free and take considerable time to run. If they finish quickly and especially if they require payment, you may have a serious infection. I suggest the specialized forums listed in the article in that case.
    Success?

  • How to hide top hits, bookmarks & history drop down menu when typing in safari search bar?

    how do I hide top hits, bookmarks & history drop down menu when typing in safari search bar?

    Not completely.
    In Safari > Preferences > Privacy > Check both Do not preload top hits in the background & Prevent earch engine from providing suggestions.
    This will eliminate top hits and search engine suggestions.
    I am not sure about the rest.
    As far as History, I guess you could clear it and use Private Browsing.
    Bookmarks, I don't think there is anything you can do about that besides removing them.
