The Keyword.URL function keeps resetting to a different value.

I just downloaded Firefox 4, and normally what I would in Firefox 3.6, I would type a keyword in the URL bar. And it comes up saying that I'm searching using:
jar:file:///C:/Program Files (x86)/Mozilla Firefox/omni.jar!/chrome/en-US/locale/browser-region/region.properties
I don't know where that came from, so I opened about:config, went to keyword.URL and switched to Google.
Okay, it works now. I exit it, and I later on opened it back up. I put in a word again. The same thing came up from when I started:
jar:file:///C:/Program Files (x86)/Mozilla Firefox/omni.jar!/chrome/en-US/locale/browser-region/region.properties
I try fixing it again. It works now.
It seems the problem is the keyword.URL value keeps resetting, but I don't know how it got "jar:file:///C:/Program Files (x86)/Mozilla Firefox/omni.jar!/chrome/en-US/locale/browser-region/region.properties" to appear on it.
So, is this just a bug on Firefox 4, or am I just the only one experiencing it? And if so, how can I solve this problem?
I know I have like two other search engines available for use on my browser, but I mostly use the URL bar to search. Any solutions?

How can we get someone from Mozilla to correctly answer these questions instead of people like us? No offence, but there are different answers to this question all over the net and none of them are right. It is frustrating enough at time to drop Firefox altogether.

  • When I try to change the keyword.url settings in about:config to do a "I'm Felling Lucky" Google search, it just resets to chrome://browser-region/locale/region.properties whenever I restart Firefox.

  • I've edited the Keyword URL so it shouldn't be Google doing autocomplete in the Location Bar but it still is. How do I stop Google dominating my searches?

    At first when I made the change it did go to the alternative search engine that I had under Keyword URL & it is still set as that (I've checked) yet when I type in website such as wikipedia & hit return its found & brought to me by Google. Note this is a location bar not search box issue.

  • I changed the "keyword url" setting in about:config to allow it to be used as a google search box, but when I exit and restart firefox it reverts to its previous setting.

    chrome://browser-region/locale/region.properties
    This is the URL that is in "keyword:URL" in about:config in my Firefox 4. I attempted to change it to http://www.google.ie/search?q= so as to use the address bar as a search bar. It works fine while Firefox remains open, but when I exit and come back later to open Firefox and use the address bar for search items I find that it has reverted to the default setting.
    Can you please help me resolve this issue?
    Thanks

    You can start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions 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.
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
    In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in <u>[[Safe mode]]</u>:
    * Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    * Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

  • IF function - keep same referenced logical test value

    I have a table with 1000+ rows in Sheet 1. In this same sheet, in a different column, say starting at D2, I'd like to evaluate the value of all the cells in column C, with a defined referenced valued in Sheet 2, cell B2. Here's the use of my IF function
    which produces the correct result:
    =IF(C2=Sheet2!B2, "Yes", "No")
    However, keeping in mind that I have a 1000+ rows in Sheet 1, when after using the above function in D2, when I hold down the CTRL key to copy this function all the way down to D1000+, the referenced cells are also increased by a factor of 1. So
    for instance, while D2's formula is shown as above, D3 would be, =IF(C3=Sheet2!B3, "Yes", "No"), and D4's, =IF(C4=Sheet2!B4, "Yes", "No"), so on and so forth.
    What I'd like to do is, is to keep the referenced value, in my case B2 unchanged, as in =IF(C3=Sheet2!B2, "Yes", "No") or =IF(C303=Sheet2!B2, "Yes", "No").
    Not sure if I've explained my situation clearly enough to decipher, but I'm hoping to find a quick way to accomplish this without having to change each cell's value so that it only references B2 and not automatically increment.
    Any help/suggestion would be much appreciated. Thanks.

    Hello,
    if you want the reference to Sheet2!B2 to remain exactly the same when the formula is copied down, you need to make it an absolute reference by adding $ signs in front of the column letter and the row number
    =IF(C2=Sheet2!$B$2, "Yes", "No")
    The $ sign makes the reference absolute, so it points to exactly that row and/or column.
    If you add a $ sign before the column letter, that column letter will not change when the formula is copied to the right.
    If you add a $ sign before the row number, that row number will not change when the formula is copied down.
    =A1 copied down will be =A2
    =A1 copied across will be =B1
    If you add $ signs in front of the column letter or row number then ...
    =$A1 copied across will stay =$A1 but copied down, the row will adjust to =$A2
    =A$1 copied down will stay =A$1, but copied across, the column will adjust to =B$1
    =$A$1 will always stay as =$A$1 no matter if it is copied across or down.
    The $ sign is  called "absolute referencing". A cell address without the $ signs is a relative address, because it will change depending on the position it is  copied to.
    cheers, teylyn

  • Outside in Viewer resets the page number to 1 always, even though the Word document has page numbering starting from different value.

    Hi All,
    I've a Word Document with page header having page number inserted.However the page numbers have been formatted to start from a value other than 1.
    E.g. For a given word document, navigate to "File -> Insert -> Page number-> format page number -> start at " and set the value to say "300". Now insert page numbers, so that the page numbering of the 1st page starts from 300.
    When this document is viewed using Outside-in Viewer, the page number of the 1st page always shows 1 instead of showing 300 (though this is not being reset/changed within the actual document)
    I'm using Outside in 8.1.9 SDK for the same. Is there an API to set the page number correct (exactly what has been set within the original document) while viewing...
    Alternatively confirm if this is a limitation within the Outside-in Viewer.
    Thanks,
    Badri

    You're going to need to open an SR to Outside In Support, Product ID 2276.
    Make sure you attach an example Word doc to the SR.

  • After reset my Firefox no longer opens web pages automatically when I type the keywords in the Location bar. How do I fix this?

    Before I reset my Firefox I was able to just type words in the Location bar and Firefox would redirect me to the website. For example, typing "reservoir dogs imdb" would redirect to the IMDB page of this movie, and typing a random sequence of characters would take me to (for example) a website of some company that uses these characters as the abbreviation of its name.
    I never set this option anywhere, it was just like that for quite a long time. Now this possibility is gone for me and I can't seem to fix it.
    I use the laters Mozilla Firefox 21.

    Starting with Firefox 23 the keyword.URL pref is no longer supported and it is no longer possible to specify the search engine for the location bar that way (keyword.enabled still works to disable this search).
    The search engine that is used on the location bar and on the about:home page is the search engine that is selected in the search Bar on the Navigation Toolbar.
    You can install the Keyword Search extension to specify with search engine to use for the location bar and which search engine to use for the about:home page via the Options/Preferences windows of this extension, accessible via the about:addons page.

  • Keyword.URL settings not saving

    The keyword.URL setting in about config resets itself upon firefox 4.10b restart. It goes to a file in a chrome url.

    chrome://browser-region/locale/region.properties is the default for complex prefs that are installation depended. You shouldn't see such values on the about:config page, but see the locale setting of the pref instead. The pref keyword.URL is an empty string in current Firefox 4 releases.
    Are you using the default theme (Tools > Add-ons > Themes)?<br />
    Which Firefox locale do you have installed?
    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • Keyword search function is disabled in firefox 4.0

    The keyword search function is disabled, I'm using Firefox 4.0
    When I type a word in the search toolbar a drop down list appears, but when I hit enter nothing happens, I can choose search engines, but the search function itself does not work.

    You can modify the pref <b>keyword.URL</b> on the <b>about:config</b> page to use Google's "I'm Feeling Lucky" or Google's "Browse By Name".
    * Google "I'm Feeling Lucky": http://www.google.com/search?btnI=I%27m+Feeling+Lucky&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=

  • Session keep resetting

    Hello everyone,
    I have a problem with the HTTPsession variable that keeps resetting (the id changes)
    I have a java application written in jsf 1.2 using beans, on jdeveloper that stores variables on the session and works correctly.
    Now, I tried to integrate this application with UCM Content server to make the pages dynamic, i built a new section and a new region template and placeholder for each page in the application and i used the same page template for all pages, each region template has a <c:import tag> to the corresponding jsf page.
    The problem is, that each page refresh now goes through the page template, the region template and finally the jsf page (and not just the jsf page like before) and this causes session reset, which makes it impossible to store attributes in the session.
    I tried setting the beans (on faces-config.xml) to request scope and to session scope, but the issue remains.
    I tried changing the session persistence store in weblogic.xml file from MEMORY to FILE and to COOKIE and still ..
    I also tried to add the parameter "-Dweblogic.servlet.useExtendedSessionFormat=true" to server run but with no help.
    Any thoughts or suggestions ?
    Thanks,
    Moran

  • Keyword.url set to google, being hijacked by Yahoo anyway

    I have checked repeatedly that my keyword search is set to the Google string, but it STILL diverts me to a Yahoo search if I type into the address bar. I hate Yahoo and its entire slow, ugly, buggy garbage of an empire, how can I make it go away?
    Also, GetBetterLinks is trash adware, please stop putting crap I have to delete on my computer, mmk?

    I set the keyword.URL preference to the Google Search-by-Name URL, changed to the default theme, and then restarted in Safe Mode with add-ons disabled. When I then checked keyword.URL, it had changed back to the "chrome:" setting.
    I set keyword.URL again and then disabled all plug-ins, exited Firefox normally, and restarted in Normal Mode. Again, keyword.URL had reverted to the "chrome:" setting.
    I then reset keyword.URL, left all the plug-ins disabled, and restarted in Safe Mode. Once again, keyword.URL had reverted to the "chrome:" setting.
    Sorry to be so clueless, cor-el, but I'm afraid I don't know what a locale is. I tried to read your link to mozillaZine, but it kept timing out after 30 seconds. Is that because of too much volume? So are you saying that my current locale is supposed to reset the keyword.URL preference from the "chrome:" setting to some valid value, but that isn't happening? What else could cause this besides a bad extension, theme, or plug-in?

  • Add parameters to the "GOTO" URL

    Hi,
    We would like to use the "GOTO" URL functionality with additional paramters (e.g. report name, customer name, sales value).
    As far as we checked the only parameters which we can add to the URL are the varibales of the report.
    Does anyone knows how can it be done?
    Or have other solution option.
    Alon

    Create the Jump target as a Web address, then form the URL in the template with all the required parameters. Report name and filter values you will be able to get from the text elements.
    Thanks.

  • Keyword.url + Browse By Name is broken in FF23

    My Mac's Firefox is notifying me that it wants to be updated to v23. But the keyword url string breaks in FF23 on Windows and as I use both mac and Pc, I need it to work on both every time.
    Keyword.url and Google's Browse By Name is how I use the internet, it's not a feature, it's a requirement.
    What can be done to resolve this?
    Thanks!

    Its... close but not completely solved yet.
    keyword search only works for one word which is only half of what I do.
    I need multi-word browse by name.
