Jeber Posted November 10, 2004 Share Posted November 10, 2004 I'm trying out FF 1.0, and have found one little item I'm not happy about. In Mozilla, a right-click on a tab brings up a menu in which "Close Tab" is the top choice. In FF, that option is half-way down the menu. Like I said, nothing major, but when I get in a rhythm, I wind up clicking on New Tab when I wanted to close the tab. Does anyone know if there's a line in about:config or anywhere else where I could adjust the order of entries in that right-click menu?

epp_b Posted November 10, 2004 Share Posted November 10, 2004 AFAIK, Firefox has always done it this way. Bugs me too. Try searching about:config for "tab" and/or "close" or something along those lines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Jeber,I am about 96% sure this can be changed, but you are looking in the wrong place. I think this would have to be done through userChrome.css.I am looking for the code to add that would get it to move though...:w00tx100:Neil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teacher Posted November 10, 2004 Share Posted November 10, 2004 I went through every folder within Firefox and could not find a single line of code that listed the button clicks for right clicking. I suspect it is one of those you can not edit. If it is there, it would be in one of the .rta (if my memory works that long) extensions.

Gary Posted November 11, 2004 Share Posted November 11, 2004 Use TBE . It is great. :thumbsup:I believe that you can find an extension that will alow you to change the position of things when using the right click. Try This Site Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeber Posted November 11, 2004 Author Share Posted November 11, 2004 Thanks for making me look, Sip. Turns out I still have TBE installed. What I did was enable "double click on tab closes tab" so now I don't even have to right click the tab to close it at all. I also added close buttons to all tabs, just in case I ever get too lazy to double click. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, good thing you found an alternate solution, because userChrome.css can't handle it :(You can click on the tab with your middle mouse button to close it, though! (Note that if you are on linux, you'll need to set middlemouse.contentLoadURL to false in about:config for it to work in Linux):w00tx100:Neil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
