Re: Is the user.js file the same as userchrome.css ???
GK
In the firefox example file it says
"/*
* Edit this file and copy it as userChrome.css into your
* profile-directory/chrome/
*/
/*
* This file can be used to customize the look of Mozilla's user interface
* You should consider using !important on rules which you want to
* override default settings.
*/
/*
* Do not remove the @namespace line -- it's required for correct functioning
*/
@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* set default namespace to XUL */
/*
* Some possible accessibility enhancements:
*/
/*
* Make all the default font sizes 20 pt:
*
* * {
* font-size: 20pt !important
* }
*/
/*
* Make menu items in particular 15 pt instead of the default size:
*
* menupopup > * {
* font-size: 15pt !important
* }
*/
/*
* Give the Location (URL) Bar a fixed-width font
*
* #urlbar {
* font-family: monospace !important;
* }
*/
/*
* Eliminate the throbber and its annoying movement:
*
* #throbber-box {
* display: none !important;
* }
*/
/*
* For more examples see »www.mozilla.org/unix/customizing.html
*/
That's where I found it. |

| Just follow my link at the top of this page.
You somehow ended up at the userChrome.css tweaks which is different. CSS tweaks are for the layout and look of Fx.
The user.js tweaks control function, extension settings, Fx settings etc...

Re: Tweaking for Fun/Speed - Fx v3 Series
I've used your tweaks for Fx2, they work fine. This newest tweak seems to choke the latest RC of Fx3, making it terribly slow. Any ideas? |

Hey Grail Knight, I was wondering if you could help me out with a user.js problem that I'm having.
I took your FF3 tweaks and put them into a user.js file, then put that file into my FF3 profile folder.
However, the tweaks from the user.js file DO NOT show up in about:config. For example, "network.http.pipelining.maxrequests" is at 8 in the user.js file, but on about:config it still reads as 4.
I did this with FF2 so I'm pretty sure I'm not making any mistakes.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks. |

Hi Grail Knight
Do you have any ideas how one can simply remove favicons from the bookmarks list please? The about:config settings 'browser.chrome.favicons' and 'browser.chrome.site_icons' set to false only do the trick for new bookmarks, not old ones. |

Make sure there are no punctuation or spelling errors as well as extra spacing.
Clear the Fx cache and restart Fx.

I had read that but needs to be simpler for me. Sqlite would be beyond me. |

What does this one do?
user_pref("newsfox.advanced.favicons", false);
When I google it, the only entry points to this post?

1 edit | That is to hide favicons in the Newsfox extension.
It is just there for anyone that may be using the extension and does not want favicons to be embedded in the RSS Feeds.
Edit* I will make a note about that in the opening post.
Thanks for reminding me.

Hi Grail Knight ,
About this tweak:
user_pref("content.interrupt.parsing", true);
Since this is the default value even if the string does not exist, I was curious why you include it.
Thanks.

Here's a tip for folks who've installed Firefox 3, and then copied over the usual key items from their old profile - avoid copying over your user.js file.
My install seemed 'pokey' compared to my wife's fresh install, and clearing out my user.js file made everything snappy again. There must have been an invalid setting carried over from 2.0, I suppose.
Now I can check out the specific 3.0 tweaks in this thread...  |
