Is there a way to make Search Bar results appear in a new tab (as opposed to in the current tab)?

I'm new to Firefox, but find it a vast improvement over IE. I just find it cumbersome to have to open a new tab before I use the Search Bar...I would much prefer an option akin to "Search results appear in new tab."
Thanks for the help!

Edit: I found it.
This preference can be changed using about:config
(1) Type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter (click the button promising to be careful, and please do be careful!)
(2) In the filter box, type or paste '''search''' and pause until the preferences are filtered
(3) Double-click '''browser.search.openintab''' to change it to true. You're done, you can close about:config now.

Are you a keyboard person or a mouse person?
Using the keyboard, after typing your query, hold the Alt key while pressing Enter to open the search results in a new tab. This also works in the address bar: when you type the name of a new site, hold Alt when pressing Enter to open that site in a new tab.
Using the mouse, hold the Ctrl key while clicking the magnifying glass icon.
Is there a way to ''always'' open search results in a new tab without having to use Alt or Ctrl? Hmmm, maybe, I haven't researched that.

  • Is there a way to have search box items open in a new tab?

    is there a way to have Safari open searches (from the search box next to the address bar) in a new tab, rather than overwriting the existing one?
    I'm guessing the answer to this is "not until someone makes an extension...", but thought I'd ask...

    If you're typing in the full search term(s) rather than using their suggestions/recent... you can hold the command key when hitting enter, and the results will open in a new tab. Hold command & shift to make the new tab active.
    Command-option does the same thing, but in a new window - again with shift making it active.

  • Is there a way to make labview messages always appear on top of all windows?

    I have a main VI running and a user selects a non-Labview window to work on. Is there a way make the user prompt or user input express VI messages appear on top of all windows? I have experimented with the "make window always on top.vi" from the NI website. That brings the VI that is running to the top but not the prompt for the express VI message. I have also used the "make window always on top.vi" in a sub-VI and called that sub-VI to be always on top and it works. I was just wondering if there was a way to do it with the express VIs that NI already has written instead of making a custom message the way I have mentioned.
    Thanks,
    Troy

    If you only need to display a prompt and can get by with a limited set of canned buttons (OK, Cancel, Retry, Continue, etc.), you can try a VI that calls the Windows API MessageBox function. You can display a message box with user-defined title, text and buttons. There is an option to use the system modality which is what you want in this case. I use my own version of this all the time for that very reason.

  • Is there a way to make a photo book with my iPad (new generation )

    I have a number (1000's!) of pictures edited on iPhoto.  Is there a way to create a photo book ( not a web book, but one that sit on your table) using the iPad iPhoto app? Can I transfer the edited version of the photos to a Computer that uses Windows? 
    Any advice / suggestions would be appreciated.

    If they no longer show up in iCloud (www.icloud.com), unfortunately, no. They are gone.
    It is possible, if you have a back up either phone (iCloud or iTunes), they may be there and could be retrieved by restoring using the back up, but I am not 100% sure of that.

  • Is there a way I can click on a link designed to open in a new window/tab and have it replace the current tab instead?

    For example, if I go to [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20435580 an abstract on PubMed] and click on either of the full text icons, Firefox will open a new tab. I want the full text to replace the tab with the abstract, instead.
    The best thing I can figure out now is to Ctrl-click the icons so they open in the background, then use Ctrl+W to close the current window.

    Hi,
    In your Firefox -> Preferences/Options -> Tabs, you can select the check box "When I open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately". You would still need to go back and close the original tab, but this would help you with part of the issue.
    Thanks,

  • When using Yahoo search the link opens a new tab rather than remaining in the current tab. This has never occurred before upgrading to FF 10.0.2. Played with tab setting in options window with no luck. Please help - very annoying.

    Windows Vista. FF 10.0.2 (2 days ago).

    Many of your points are totally legitimate.
    This one, however, is not:
    …To put it another way, the design of the site seems to be geared much more towards its regular users than those the site is supposedly trying to "help"…
    The design and management of the forums for more than five years have driven literally dozens of the most valuable contributors and "regulars" away from the forums—permanently.
    The only conclusion a prudent, reasonable person can draw from this state of affairs is that Adobe consciously and deliberately want to kill these forums by attrition—without a the PR hit they would otherwise take if they suddenly just shut them down.

  • Is there a way to make a self-signed client certificate with keytool...

    Is there a way to make a self-signed client certificate with keytool
    that will install successfully into the personal store in IE?

    hi,
    It is possible to make a self-signed client certificate with keytool and i am successfully using in my dummy application.
    The first thing you need to do is create a keystore and generate the key pair. You could use a command such as the following:
    keytool -genkey -dname "cn=Mark Jones, ou=JavaSoft, o=Sun, c=US"
    -alias business -keypass kpi135 -keystore C:\working\mykeystore
    -storepass ab987c -validity 180
    (Please note: This must be typed as a single line. Multiple lines are used in the examples just for legibility purposes.)
    This command creates the keystore named "mykeystore" in the "working" directory on the C drive (assuming it doesn't already exist), and assigns it the password "ab987c". It generates a public/private key pair for the entity whose "distinguished name" has a common name of "Mark Jones", organizational unit of "JavaSoft", organization of "Sun" and two-letter country code of "US". It uses the default "DSA" key generation algorithm to create the keys, both 1024 bits long.
    It creates a self-signed certificate (using the default "SHA1withDSA" signature algorithm) that includes the public key and the distinguished name information. This certificate will be valid for 180 days, and is associated with the private key in a keystore entry referred to by the alias "business". The private key is assigned the password "kpi135".
    Also please go through the http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/tooldocs/win32/keytool.html
    This would help u better.
    bye,
    Arun

  • Is there a way to make form org specific?

    Hello folks!
    Is there a way to make my custom form Organization specific.As in when first org users selects the org code from the find window ,the profile option should be set so that that all the info that they enter pertains only to that org.Its basically a way to set up the form so that it could be used across various orgs?
    If you can throw some light at this,I would appreciate it!
    Thanks much for your help!

    U can make the form org specific by fetching the organization id programmatically...U will need to override executeQuery method of your VO....Below will make things clear:
    Add the following where clause in your VO query:
    where ORG_ID=:1
    Override the execute query in VOIMPL,java as:
    public void executeQuery()
    OAApplicationModuleImpl oaapplicationmoduleimpl = (OAApplicationModuleImpl)getApplicationModule();
    OADBTransactionImpl oadbtransactionimpl = (OADBTransactionImpl)oaapplicationmoduleimpl.getOADBTransaction();
    if(isLoggingEnabled(1))
    writeDiagnostics(this, "oadbtransactionimpl.getBusinessGroupID():"+oadbtransactionimpl.getOrgId(), 1);
    setWhereClauseParams(null);
    setWhereClauseParam(0, String.valueOf(oadbtransactionimpl.getOrgId()));
    super.executeQuery();
    if(isLoggingEnabled(1))
    writeDiagnostics(this, "getRowCount:"+getRowCount(), 1);

  • Is there a way to make Mailbox automatically update as soon as you get new mail?

    I just got an iPhone 4, and I noticed that my mailbox only updates when I open it, even if I received new mail since I last checked. Is there a way to make it automatically update when I get new mail in my inbox? There's sort of no point to alerting me when I get new mail if I'm already in the inbox.
    I dunno if it matters, but my mail box is synced to a gmail account.
    I also don't really know what my operating system is, but I guess it's iOS 6 since it's a new phone? I don't know how to check.

    It depends on how you have mail checking your mail. You mention that you have a Gmail account. Did you set this up as an Exchange account to use Push? If you have mail set to only check manually, then that is what will happen, it will only update manually. If you have it set to one of the other time settings, it will update like that, as that will be the only time it will connect to the mail server, even with the application open.

  • Is there a way to combine their query results into a single function

    say I have a bunch of functions that return a query:
    <cffunction name="getDeals" access="remote"
    returntype="query">
    <cffunction name="getDeals2" access="remote"
    returntype="query">
    is there a way to combine their query results into a single
    function that returns a struct of the various results?

    Umm, it's probably more suited to an array - effectively
    making it into a list of queries. You'd then loop the array and
    output each.
    I use a similar approach when creating system messages to the
    user. Most of my functions that are called do their bit, then at
    the end call another function I call "messages". This function
    grabs whatever my function sends and appends it to a messages
    array.
    This way enables me to output a long list of messages -
    because I could be calling several functions at the same time. If I
    just output a message from each function, each one would overwrite
    the other. So I'd get one message at a time.
    Immediately after it's output, I then destroy the message
    array so that old messages aren't kept inside of it.

  • When I right click and "Search Google for ____" the resulting google search comes up in a new tab AND the current tab

    Right click google search used to open only in a new tab. Now it opens in a new tab and after a moment, the current tab also.
    Any ideas?

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • How can I make new tabs open next to the current tab?

    New tabs are advertised in Firefox 5.0 as being set to open next the the current tab by default. Mine, however, do not do this. They open to the right of the last tab, necessitating a lot of tab-scrolling, and a minor waste of time.
    I have not installed the extension that forces the tab behaviour I'm currently witnessing.
    Is there a kind soul out there with any suggestions for how I can get my new tabs to appear next to the tab I'm working on?

    Tabs that are "related" to the current tab, like the same domain, open to the right of the current tab. Other links that are from other domains open at the right end of the tab strip.
    The pref for that actions is '''browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent'''.
    To have them all open to the right of the current tab would need an add-on, if that action even exists in an add-on.

    Nope, afraid not. The only third-party utility that you might look at is LionScrollBars 0.5.4. You can search for others at MacUpdate or CNET Downloads.
