Mozilla Profile Customizations
2006-03-12 11:07 - Tech
I prefer to use Mozilla Firefox for web browsing, and Mozilla Thunderbird for email. One of the big reasons is how customizable both these programs are. But they're so customizable that it can be hard to keep track of! Here's some of the more hidden things that I tweak:
Thunderbird user.js:
// Download mail from all accounts on startup
user_pref("mail.check_all_imap_folders_for_new", true);
// Change the reply header
// 0 - No Reply-Text
// 1 - "[Author] wrote:"
// 2 - "On [date] [author] wrote:"
// 3 - User-defined reply header. Use the prefs below in conjunction with this:
user_pref("mailnews.reply_header_type", 2);
Firefox userChrome.css:
/*
* Do not remove the @namespace line -- it's required for correct functioning
*/
@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul");
/* remove excess space around toolbar buttons */
#toolbar-menubar toolbarbutton {
padding-top: 0 !important;
padding-bottom: 0 !important;
}
/* disable tooltips of tab names */
.tabbrowser-strip tooltip { display: none; }
/* disable tab list drop down */
.tabs-alltabs-button { display: none; }
/* get rid of "open in tabs" */
#personal-bookmarks .openintabs-menuseparator,
#personal-bookmarks .openintabs-menuitem
{
display: none !important;
}
/* don't show options for new windows */
#file-menu menuitem[command='cmd_newNavigator'],
#file-menu #menu_closeWindow,
#contentAreaContextMenu #context-openlink,
#contentAreaContextMenu #frame menuitem[oncommand='gContextMenu.openFrame();']
{
display: none !important;
}
/*

*/
#stop-button[disabled="true"] { display:none; }
#stop-button:not([disabled]) + #reload-button { display:none; }
/* no tab list dropdown */
.tabs-alltabs-stack {
display: none !important;

.searchbar-box .search-go-button,
#searchbar .search-go-button-stack,
#go-button, #go-button-stack
{
display: none !important;
}
/* This space on the GM button is unnecessary. */
#gm-status-image { margin: 0 !important; }

#urlbar-container { margin: 0px !important; }

Firefox userContent.css:
/* reset buttons do nothing but waste time and space */
input[type="reset"] { display: none !important; }

noscript img { display: none !important; }
@-moz-document domain(titantv.com) {
/* crap at the top */
td.gridBannerRowHeader, td.gridBannerRowCell, iframe {
display: none !important;
}
}
Firefox user.js:
user_pref("dom.disable_window_open_feature.resizable", true);
user_pref("dom.disable_window_open_feature.minimizable", true);
