Firefox In Figure
November 9, 2006 — honeytech Hints and Tricks on Firefox01 - Is you Firefox® crashing on startup ?
Possibly it is one extension or theme that you have installed that causes the problem. Windows users, click on the Start button, choose the Run menu and write firefox-safe-mode and confirm. It will open a Secure Mode dialog, where you should choose the middle button (Continue in safe mode, I guess 
). In this safe mode, you’ll be able do exclude some theme or extension and maybe it will solve the problem. If not… follow hint 2
02 - How to create a new Firefox Profile.
With no Firefox® windows opened, click on the Start button, choose the Run menu and write firefox-p and confirm. The profile Manager will appear, with the “New Profile” button. Click on it, click next, choose a name (better no spaces!) and you’ll be ready. Many difficult problems in Firefox® can be solved with this approach (start from zero: new Profile).

To move a folder in the Favorite Bar, hold the SHIFT key while you drag it.
04 - Are your characteres being exibited correctly ? 08/03/2005
Find out the Firefox menu related to Codification, and choose the best option for you.
05 - Opening links 10/04/2005
Some Microsoft Applications as MSN, open Internet links in Internet Explorer by default. To avoid this problem, insted of clicking on the link normally, use the mouse’s right button and select “Copy shortcut” or something like this. Then, open Firefox and paste the copied link (Ctrl + V) on the address bar, in the top.
06 - If it is taking TOO long to open a different site (or link) 04/05/2005
If you try to visit another web site or open a link, and it’s taking a long to open it:
Click on the STOP button (red one) and try to visit the site or link again.
07 - To open links in new TABS of Firefox 30/06/2005
Hold CTRL while clicking on the link!
08 - To create a Dynamic Bookmark (the same as RSS Bookmark)
Firefox 1.5 broght us an easier way to do it:
If you enter a website with RSS and it appears an icon on the right corner of the address bar, just click that icon and choose the place to save the RSS Bookmark.
But if the website doesn’t offer that icon… 31/07/2005
In a website that has XML or RSS feed (you will see an orange small rectangle with a white XML or RSS word in it):
a) Copy the link (usually the address of a xml file) by right-clicking the FEED link in that site and choosing “Copy shortcut”.
b) Open Firefox, menus Bookmarks -> Manage BookMarks
c) A window will open with a File Menu. Choose New Dynamic BookMark (some versions named it RSS Bookmark) in the File menu of this small window.
d) Choose a name for the dynamic bookmark
e) Paste the link (Ctrl + V) in the source (bellow name).
f) Confirm with OK.
Note: You can drag this new dynamic bookmark untill the bookmarks toolbar holding SHIFT while you drag it.

reduce FireFox Load Time make it fast
1. Type “about:config” into the address bar and hit return. Scroll down and look for the following entries:
network.http.pipelining
network.http.proxy.pipelining
network.http.pipelining.maxrequests
Normally the browser will make one request to a web page at a time. When you enable pipelining it will make several at once, which really speeds up page loading.
2. Alter the entries as follows:
Set “network.http.pipelining” to “true”
Set “network.http.proxy.pipelining” to “true”
Set “network.http.pipelining.maxrequests” to some number like 30. This means it will make 30 requests at once.
3. Lastly right-click anywhere and select New-> Integer.
Name it “nglayout.initialpaint.delay” and set its value to “0”.
This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it recieves.
