/tech/ - Firefox & Tabs

Name: Anonymous 2010-01-23 17:03

I just upgraded to Firefox 3.5.7, and the tabs are annoying me because I can't click them, and use the arrow keys to scroll anymore.

My question is very simple, is there a way to fix this in the config, or do I have to go to a different version of FF?

Just upgrade to 3.6, it's faster anyway. If your FireFox is having issues like that uninstall and reboot before installing the new one just to be safe.

It seems 3.5.7 and 3.6 don't have this feature anymore.

I've tried it out on a few different computers, with both 3.5.7 and 3.6, neither have the scroll through tabs without clicking each one.

use control + tab instead for going forward, shift + control + tab (a bit clumsy) for going back

i've never looked back

Thanks roo, now the last question. I switch to 3.6, and now the tabs are starting next to the current tab, instead of the end. Is there a way to fix this too?

yeah, that's probably due to this:

i'd reccommend opening up about:config and searching for entries that have "tab" in them. there aren't that many in 3.5.7 so hopefully a relevant one can be easily found
