I know there is an extension that does exactly this, but the extension often doesn't get updated if a new Firefox version comes out and so has to be disabled due to incompatibility (as is the case currently with Fx 1.5). Of course it should be optionally, so users can still minimize to taskbar. | I know there is an extension that does exactly this, but the extension often doesn't get updated if a new Firefox version comes out and so has to be disabled due to incompatibility (as is the case currently with Fx 1.5).

* Is this really relevant for a browser? For Thunderbird OTOH, I use such functionality myself. Though not sure, whether that's not something to be rather handled at OS level (since not even all OSes sport a tray). ~ [[User:Zeniko|Zeniko]] 15:17, 8 Feb 2006 (PST) | |||

This is one of the very few (or the only?) thing I missed when leaving IE for Fx. While typing in an URL or anything in a textbox Fx should instantly try to complete the string like this: | This is one of the very few (or the only?) thing I missed when leaving IE for Fx.

Best see for yourself if you can get a copy of IE. | I only typed "www.mozi" and the rest got added automatically and changes constantly while typing.

* Have you tried setting the boolean pref [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Inline_autocomplete browser.urlbar.autoFill] to true? ~ [[User:Zeniko|Zeniko]] 15:17, 8 Feb 2006 (PST) | |||

For unexperienced users (as others maybe too) finding the profile manager is difficult to impossible as it can only be invoked by passing the 'profilemanager' argument to firefox. I think many windows user don't know how to run a programm other than by clicking on the icon and even passing an argument is maybe too much. So why not add a menu entry that opens the profile manager? | For unexperienced users (as others maybe too) finding the profile manager is difficult to impossible as it can only be invoked by passing the 'profilemanager' argument to firefox.

* As I understand it, the Profile manager is not targeted at "unexperienced users" but mainly at developers/testers (see [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=302087#c3 bz302087]). Normal users should use the OS's profile facilities instead. ~ [[User:Zeniko|Zeniko]] 15:17, 8 Feb 2006 (PST) | |||
