I knew most of those but there were one or two that were new to FF3 that I wasn’t aware of. Thanks!

Is there a way to set the upper limit of how may tabs will open within a folder when clicking on the folder with the scrolling wheel.

The default seems to be about 15 or so and I’d like to set it to 5.

Thanks.

Number 13 trick I would not recommend.

Screwed up my Firefox, pages were loading really slowly.

[...] 10. about:config. The true power user’s tool, about.config isn’t something to mess with if you don’t know what a setting does. You can get to the main configuration screen by putting about:config in the browser’s address bar. See Mozilla’s about:config tips and screenshots. [...]

Loved the tips! It’s rare that I find anything this useful. I’m wondering if someone can answer another configuration question? Every time I open a PDF file, the default seems to be something other than 100%. Is there a setting I can modify so that the file will ALWAYS open at 100% rather than much larger? It’s annoying having to change the viewing size. I’ve checked all the default options, but none seem to have any effect. Thanks again for the great article!

My close buttons(the x) on tabs used to be red. No longer after a previous upgrade. I now have version 3.5.2. Number 7 “coolest trick” above refers to the “x” as red. How can I make the x red?
