How mak an iMacro to toggle Tools Options Content Colors Allow Pages Own Colors
Every day in Firefox I go back and forth repeatedly, enabling my own System Colors, then going back to "Allow pages to choose their own colors".
I've tried to create an iMacro to do this, but apparently I haven't leaned iMacros correctly, because none of the several times I've tried it have worked.
Can someone write the macro for me, or tell me what the steps of the iMacro should be?
The two setting I want to toggle are:
Tools > Options > Content* > Colors > Allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above
and
Tools > Options > Content* > Colors > [uncheck] Allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above
* I always leave Content selected in the Tools > Options window, specifically so I can do the above series without having to mouse-click on Content
Thanks!
hello, you could simply try it with an add-on like https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/toggledocumentcolors-198916/

How to disable Setting button in Tools - Options - Advanced - Network from windows registry?
Dear support,
Now, my office use Firefox as default browser to access WebServer. And there are some policy that users must use ProxyServer. I do not want user change proxy setting in Firefox. How to disable Setting button in Tools - Options - Advanced - Network from windows registry?
Thank you.
TrekyYou can not use the Windows registry to disable items in Firefox. This link shows how to lock down Firefox proxy settings, change the values to suit your needs:

One minor variation, in step 4 instead of adding that line to all-js, you can create a file called ''local-settings.js'' containing the line shown and save the file in the same folder as all.js -
How to disable Setting button in Tools - Options - Advanced - Network..i've read an article that solved this problem..but thats problem contains web adress that couldn't be opened..any other solution???
thanks before

-ariansyah-You can disable or remove that button, but that won't prevent users from making the changes on the about:config page directly.<br />
You can lock the related network.proxy prefs if you do not want users to change the connection settings.

I am at http://www.closys.com/samples_&_coupons/get_a_coupon.html and the pop up window for a printable coupon only appears briefly (in the upper left corner) and then disappears, even after putting the web site into the Tools,Options,Content,Pop-Up Exceptions. What gives and how can it be fixed. I have a time limit.
Thanks for your solution.
DanMha007:
Sorry, but I have already tried this too and verified that the web addresses are listed as Allow, rather than Block. After restart there was no difference, I still get the disappearing pop-up windows.
Thanks for offering suggestions though.
Have you heard of any issues like this occurring based on the number of tabs that are open in Firefox?
Just a thought, even though I have not heard of this as an issue before. I keep about 80 tabs open regularly, because of research that I am always conducting (I am a blogger, a writer/author, a technophile-especially Green Tech.,), email, work, etc.?
I do have a check in the box for Firefox to let me know if the number of open tabs is causing slow down or other issues.
Thanks for any help. -
How to trap F1 (help) when "Tools - Options" is active
Hi there. I already posted this question previously with no appropriate response. I wouldn't normally post it again but I'm justifiably losing my patience. I can find no way to trap F1 (help) when someone activates my program's options via "Tools
-> Options". This is supported in add-ins via "EnvDTE.IDTToolsOptionsPage.OnHelp()" but after spending countless hours hunting for how to do this in a VSPackage (spinning my wheels for days now), I have yet to find an answer. Would someone
from MSFT care to enlighten me on how to pull this off. I simply need to intercept F1 so I can launch a ".chm" file when my options are showing under "Tools -> Options". Thank you.
Larry (25+ years on MSFT platforms, mostly in C/C++)Hi Ed,
Thanks very much for your response. I'll look into this and hopefully there's something that can be done. Am anxiously looking forward to your own results as well. I have looked into other possibilities however, like overriding "DialogPage.OnActivate()"
and trying to set the focus to my options page, where I then have control (so trapping F1 would be easy). This isn't doable either though based on my testing. Changing the bindings to intercept "Help.F1Help" is also fraught with problems. Both these
ideas are hacks though, as would be trying to get underneath Visual Studio to trap F1 before it even gets control. Integrating my help into MSHelp isn't something I want to do either, not just because of the work involved, but because of the nature of my app.
My ".chm" file contains the help for my add-in (now VSPackage) as well as a standalone ".exe" that goes with it (which is run independently of VS). A single ".chm" file therefore serves both programs so two help systems isn't
viable. Note that even though add-ins will soon be obsolete, I honestly find it bewildering that MSFT would force developers to use their help system given that add-ins supported "EnvDTE.IDTToolsOptionsPage.OnHelp()". There should be an analogue
for this in a VSPackage since it's so basic. There's enough work involved having to convert an add-in to a VSPackage while still supporting older versions of VS (many programmers now have to deal with both depending on the version), but the fact that a VSPackage
doesn't even seem to support everything an add-in did (F1 in this case), means that MSFT has created difficult and expensive problems for many developers. This isn't directed at you of course (your help is certainly welcome and greatly appreciated), but I'm
at a loss to understand the business rationale for this. It may be easier for MSFT to deal with one system only now (VSPackages instead of add-ins), but it hurts many of its existing customers who have to deal with the fallout of this decision And honestly,
I see no immediate advantage to VSPackages over add-ins. Like so many other technologies before it, it's just a different way to do the same thing (both have their pros and cons). I'm not here to rant though, but it's just the frustration of having to spend
weeks on this one issue alone, in addition to all the other work required to convert an add-in to a VSPackage. I've had a stable, working add-in for years now and am being forced to convert it to a VSPackage with all the ensuing problems (time, expense, need
to support both technologies now, add-ins and VSPackages, as well as unknown future problems, etc). At the end of the day though, my customers will see no difference in the program. So what was the point of going through this exercise. I (and many others no
doubt) are going through this grief only because MSFT has given us no choice.

Firefox version 3.6.12
Java - I believe 6 update 22 something like that - have verified have most up-to-date available.
I am running on windows xp with upgrade 2. (I can not upgrade to 3 without crashing my system. Not even with hp's "fix" unless they've licked that calf over again.)

This is not my first time using Firefox...It has always worked on previous versions. I have just downloaded 4.0. Is this a known bug with Firefox 4.0 ??
In case you use "Clear history when Firefox closes" or otherwise clear history:
*do not clear the Browsing History
*Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history": [X] "Clear history when Firefox closes" > Settings
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/remove-recent-browsing-search-and-download-history
Clearing "Site Preferences" clears all exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, software installation, passwords, and other website specific data. -
The problem also seems to be connected to the errors of "keep me signed in" and "Log me on automatically each visit" not functioning. As my computer is a home computer and i am the only user, i was wondering if anyone out there has any solutions ?

Line Segment Tool Options won't allow negative angle
When you select an object and hit Return to bring up the Move dialog, Illustrator allows you to enter a negative rotation amount in the Angle field (e.g., -30°). This is great. However, when you select the Line Segment tool and click in the drawing area to bring up the Line Segment Tool Options dialog, the same Angle field will only accept positive numbers. Entering a negative value will cause the Angle to be zero. This is sloppy work and so easily fixed. Please change it so you can enter negative numbers in the Line Segment Tool Options dialog like you can in the Move dialog. Also, there should be a preview checkbox in the Line Segment Tool Options.

I have looked for add-ons that could automate this configuration change, but to no avail. Only web page actions can be recorded in a macro, but no configuration changes.
A shortcut to get to the appropriate dialog box would help as well. I could manually tick/untick the box while saving all the several steps needed to get there. But I have not found it anywhere.
Thank you very much for any help you can provide me.
Best regards,
AlexHi, I want to drop a note to say thank you, cor-el. Your answer was better and faster than I could have expected. It not only solved my problem, but also opened new possibilities for more quick configurations.
I am now obliged to follow your example and join this wonderful community of volunteers that help others to enjoy this fantastic browser.
Best Regards!

How do I change header/footer print options for font, font size, and color?
I know how to change the text for web page print of footers/headers. I can see no option to change font, font color, or font size (such as available on IE). I want to change the font, font color and font size of the footer/header when I print a web page. I read the FAQs, found nothing that seems to fit. Can you assist? or is this option available on Mozilla. I have the latest/greatest version (set to auto update).
OK, my question was about how to change font/color in headers/footers... This suggestion changes the font/color in the text, but NOT in the footers, unless I want everything in the same font/color. I need footers/headers in RED BOLD. I can do this on IE, but there does not seem to be an option for Mozilla.

Nothing to add, really, except that I used to use Internet Explorer 8 and had no problems there. However I prefer to stick with Firefox!
Phillipp,
I tried it again using "save link as", and this time it actually worked! I just now downloaded several more using the "save link as" option, and it works perfectly. Thanks. Problem solved.

Unable to enable JavaScript
To avoid confusion: http://kb.mozillazine.org/JavaScript_is_not_Java
See [[JavaScript]] and http://kb.mozillazine.org/JavaScript
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

In other words, I can go into the content tab, check the box to stop pop-ups, but if I close the browser, and then reopen it, the box is no longer checked. What is the cause of this?
cor-el
Thank you for your help. Unfortunately, none of the fixes that you directed me to worked; the “safe mode” fix, prefs.js change to prefs.jsOLD fix, the blow it out and reinstall fix; and prefs-1.js does not exist. I’m willing to try any other fixes you can think of, so send them along if you have any.
One thing that did come to mind though is; the extension “.js” is for java script. And, with Firefox 6.0 installed, the Java 6 Update 26 is disabled, with the message under add-ons – extensions being, “Java Console is incompatible with Firefox 6.0.” Could this be the reason I can’t get the “Block pop-up windows” box to remain checked?
I’m not an IT guy, so any further help will be appreciated.
