Open about:config on web browser

I would like to open the advanced configuration on my web browser for Firefox OS. I have tried typing about:config into the Awesome bar, and then either keying 'enter' or using the Go arrow, to no result.
The following answer seems to imply that this is possible in Firefox for Android:
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/960501#answer-440285

The about:config "page" definitely exists in both desktop and Android versions of Firefox. However, when I search for about:config in the Firefox OS source code site, I don't find anything but a single comment. It sounds as though that particular page is not used on Firefox OS. Maybe there's a new name for it?

Hyperlink open up a new web browser

Hello,
I have a Logo that I have hyperlinked to a webpage. I need to have it open up a new Browser Window instead of changing the page the Logo with Hyperlink is on.
Any tips on how I can make a Logo with a hyperlink open up a new web browser?

I just downloaded Acrobat XI and do not have this orange Hyperlink button. The only hyperlink tool I can find is the Add or Edit Link button. I am a teacher for an online school who is creating PPT presentations that I convert to PDFs, and upload them for my students. When my students open the instructional PDF and then click on a link, it takes them away from the PDF instead of opening a new browser window. They are very limited computer users, and I need a way to make this work! I've already tried putting in the target=blank code and haven't gotten that to work either. Can you offer any help?

Unable to open about:config

I am unable to open "about:config" in Firefox 4

Hi.
When I try to open "about:config" I get error message from IE
"Navigation to the website was cancelled"
My attempts to disable IE have been unsuccessful.
This has only occurred since I installed Firefox 4

My favicons are not showing up for all my imported bookmarks as well as certain current bookmarks and when I open the about:config it says "browser.chrome.favicons;false". Shouldn't this be true and how to I change it?

I had to rebuild my computer and when I imported all of my bookmarks they had no favicons. I started getting some of the favicons when I would go to the websight it would reconnect, but now I can't seem to see almost any of them. I did a search on Google and one tech site suggested the about:config file and that the "browser.chrome.favicons;false" should be set to true. But when I toggle it to true and restart Firefox it is once more set to false. I know it doesn't seem like much, but it is really annoying not having those favicons.
Help me Obi Wan Firefox you are my only hope.

The browser.chrome.favicons preference should be set to true, as it is not retaining the value when you restart Firefox, see the [[Preferences are not saved]] article for possible causes.

Safari doesn't open, computer without other web browser

Safari does not even open, simply quits unexpectedly within a few seconds. I have no other web browsers downloaded.

There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
If Safari crashes on launch and you don't have another web browser, you should be able to launch Safari by starting up in safe mode.
You may have installed the "Genieo" or "InstallMac" ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it.
Back up all data before making any changes.
Besides the files listed in the linked support article, you may also need to remove this file in the same way:
~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.completer.ltvbit.plist
If there are other items with a name that includes "Genieo" or "genieo" alongside any of those you find, remove them as well.
One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those.
After removing the malware, remember to reset your home page in all the web browsers affected, if it was changed.
If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, then you may have one of the other kinds of adware covered by the support article. Follow the rest of the instructions in the article.
Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. Chances are you got it from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
or
Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
if it's not already checked.

Issue with opening pdf file from web browser

I have Acrobat Pro ver 6 and Adobe Reader 9.1 on a computer. when my user tries to open up a pdf from the web he is getting the following error message:
"The Adobe Acrobat/Reader that is running can not be used to view PDF files in a WEb Browser. Adbe Acrobat/Reader version 8 or 9 is required. Please exit and try again."
What also happens is that Acrobat Pro ver 6 opens up and nothing is there.
I am not sure why he is getting that message since Reader 9.1 is installed.
Can any one shed some light on this for me.
This user needs to have Acrobat and Reader on his system. I understand that there are issues with having both.
Also he has it set up so that any PDF is opening using the Reader 9.1.
Thanks,

Your PC's default reader configuration for embedded PDFs has become confused, due to multiple Adobe PDF document solutions installed on one PC.
Solution 1:
Go to Start > Run
Type regedit and click OK.
Browse to the following key: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Software\Adobe\Acrobat\Exe
Make sure that the correct Default data value is set for the path where Adobe Reader or Acrobat are installed.
The default installation values are:
"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe"
or
"C:\Program Files\adobe\acrobat 6.0\acrobat\Acrobat.exe" (not sure about this path. Check on your PC to be sure)
depending on whether Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat is installed.
Solution 2:
Configure the browser to use Acrobat or Adobe Reader as a helper application.
If you are using Firefox to browse the web, you can change this setting in Firefox by going to:
Tools > Options
Click on the "Applications" Tab.
The first item in the list should be "Adobe Acrobat Document". Under the Action list, click the drop down arrow and select the application you want to read PDFs within the web browser. Click OK, and you should be done.
If you're using Internet Explorer to view PDFs, try the below steps.
After you configure Acrobat or Adobe Reader as a helper application, the browser starts the helper application in a separate window and displays PDF files within that window. Acrobat and Adobe Reader both include a preference that lets you specify Acrobat or Adobe Reader as the helper application.
To configure Acrobat or Adobe Reader as a helper application:
Start Acrobat or Adobe Reader.
Choose Edit > Preferences.
Select Internet on the left.
Deselect Display PDF In Browser Using [Acrobat application], and then click OK.
Quit Acrobat or Adobe Reader.
The next time you select a link to a PDF file in the browser, a dialog box asks what you would like to do with the file. If you select Open It, the browser opens the PDF file in Acrobat or Adobe Reader (the helper application); if you select Save It To Disk, the browser saves the PDF file to your hard drive.

I'm having a similar issue.
Did a fresh install of 11.2.0.1.0 under Windows 2003 - latest updates - IE 8.
I can access Enterprise Manager from other computers - but not from the local server.
I've tried both: https://oracle.xxxx.xxx:1158/em and https://localhost:1158/em
Both give me the generic "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage" - but if I access from another computer it comes up - so I know everything is working...

Open word document in web browser

i need to open the word document using activex web browser. just like windows 7 shows the preview panel.
any body know this?
Regards,
Balaji DP

Hi Rick,
Did this issue occur with all the files?
If yes, I recommend to verify the things below:
Check if the Office Web Apps feature is activated on the site collection.
Check if the Office Web Apps service applications and proxies have been created.
Check if the Office Web Apps service applications and proxies are associated with the proxy group of the Web application that the site collection belongs to.
Check if the service account permissions for the Web application and the Office Web Apps services are appropriate.

About install netscape6 web browser

Hi,fine:
I already install netscape 6 on my solaris 7 for x86 system.But
I open web browser appear "hot java"browser through CDE environment.
Now I hope my web browser is netscape 6 browser .Please tell me
how to to it.
Thank again.

Make sure the command "netscape" can be found in your $PATH.
When you click on the "Web-Browser" icon, CDE runs the shell
script /usr/dt/bin/sdtwebclient to start the web browser. This
script searches your $PATH for the commands "netscape", "sdthotjava"
and "hotjave". The scripts starts the first one it finds.

About the terrible web browser..

Hi.
I just discovered two problems with web browser. First, we can't open new tabs.
Second, I can't use this board : http://forums.jeuxonline.info/forumdisplay.php?f=189 I don't know how to describe the problem.. When I type, the words don't appear above the keyboard. Then, when I send the message, there is an error telling i typed no words..
Anyone capable of solving the first or the other problem?
Thanks

Possible answer to the first problem. Does anyone know a website with a link opening an almost blank(=leading to a rapid loading page) new tab?

Error when opening page with the web browser activex

I have downloaded the example for using the web browser activeX component to display a web page. It basically works, but it keeps returning an error (from NI's web site) that I don't see when opening the site from IE. The message I get is:
Are there things that need to be initialized when calling the browser in this way?

Mike,
It looks like ni.com is not supplying that particular console object which is causing an issue with the embedded instance of IE9. Every other website I've tried works correctly. I've looked around the ActiveX methods to intercept and ignore this error, but I haven't found anything yet.
For others' reference, here is the link to the example:

Where is documentation about Adobe Reader web-browser plugin API?

When Adobe Reader is chosen as plugin to open PDF's inside a web-browser it reacts to some javascript commands in the web page that hosts the <object> tag like "goToPage" or similar. I would like to know which other javascript commands (and events: something like "onPageChanged", for example) are available. Where can I find documentation?
Thanks

Microsoft hasn't updated its Windows Media Player plugin for Firefox for a while, so 3-year-old documentation may be current. I recommend using MSDN as a resource, and particularly articles indicating which features work in Firefox.
You also can work out development issues on a forum more focused on that, the unofficial [http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewforum.php?f=25 mozillaZine Web Development board]. It's a separate site (with separate registration).

Open SMB Link in web browser

I would like to be able to click on a link in the browser (Safari or FireFox) and view the document. This works for the http protocol but I can't get it to work for SMB on OS X. See the examples below. The first example works but the second example requires and actual SMB file share.

This is how we share documents and it Works on MS Windows in IE, anyone know if this is possible on OS X?

The following will open the IE web browser and browse to the given URL:
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("explorer.exe", @"http://www.microsoft.com");
...or file:
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(@"iexplore.exe", @"C:\test\test.html");
Using another browser is just a matter of specifying the path to it, e.g:
//open Chrome:
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(@"C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe", @"http://www.microsoft.com");
