Or yet another way, after making a BACKUP of prefs.js: open page "about:config" (Edit>Configuration>Browser Configuration) It's an endless list of prefs, the "thin" ones are default, the "bold" ones are user-set. Not all but many react instantly when toggling. If type is Bool with a doubleclick, the others by right-click. Actually the big majority o

Great, already a step forward! Okay, the usual suspects are UA, Cookies, Javascript and Referer (http+https). Perhaps just referer?

Forum: General

Probably just some setting. A different default setting, perhaps Frames, but no idea, or some user setting. And that "compatibility" setting means just a fake suffix to the useragent, unless I'm mistaken, and doesn't change anything inside KM itself? Perhaps you could compare your actual UAs on some browsertest site?

QuotefoliatorIn KM I don't use the bookmarks bar anyway, because I need to leave the status bar visible to see the URL when I hover over a link. This uses up the vertical space I'd normally give to the bookmarks bar. FF has no status bar, but still shows the URL at the bottom when hovering over a link. With a macro link targets can also be shown in a tooltip, not at page bottom but di

Just a little macro from a bookmarklet, with thanks to author subsimple and his great site! http://subsimple.com/bookmarklets/collection_links.php When you hover the mouse over a link, the statusbar usually shows the link target. If the statusbar is switched off, for example to save screen space, this macro helps to see the link target in a tooltip, directly at the link itself. If it's a

Quite simple in KM Edit > Configuration > Menus opens the file for user modifications, but in this case it's probably easier to just do it inside the global file, in /settings/menus.cfg Find the menu entries you want to remove and just add a comment sign # at the lines. But make a backup copy first! Most of KM's menu entries are there, only a couple others are added by kmm-

Still suspect it may have to do with mousegestures, especially since Left-Drag? And recently stumbled upon a posting some weeks ago where some bug with the scrollbar in combination with gestures was reported, but not sure if remember that right. Anyway, does it also happen if you disable gestures?
Forum: General

All kudos to Dorian Love KM too, since many years, but always interesting to read how it compares and looks from the 'outside'. A viewpoint that I'm completely missing myself, due to old machine and frankly neither time nor much interest in such struggles myself. So, rather clueless in that regard. Great news, thanks for reporting!

Seems there are actually FF-users out there who do collect their bookmarks not in bookmarks, but exclusively in the current session, especially in the FF tab "groups" (whatever that is exactly, but sure must be empty tabs considering the mass).

What a fitting name - "in the dark" :cool: Anyway, this skin obviously is meant for old KM-versions. And additionally it is a very special skin system if it comes with an "exe" file. Very unusual.

The prob for macros is that they can only start any action AFTER a page has already fully loaded ($OnLoad event), not at the beginning of loading. Again and again, am running against a wall with many macro wishes due to that prob. So from my (limited) point of view that wouldn't help you much. One of the main job of macros is pref toggling, yes - but again, this must be started at some &quo

An editor with syntax highlighting (Scite, Notepad++, etc.) reveals the mystery automatically: There are lots more opening brackets than closing ones. Between stop and go must be 4.
