Here’s a quick little one…
If you, like me, find it annoying that the backspace button takes you back one page in history in your web browser (like clicking the Back button), then you might be glad to know you can disable it (in Firefox–sorry, haven’t looked into other browsers)
I found out how to do this here:
http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/12/21/fix-firefox-backspace-to-take-you-to-the-previous-page/
Where the author is actually doing the opposite, enabling the feature.
To disable:
- Go to about:config
- Filter for backspace
- Change the value for browser.backspace_action to 1 to disable back button behavior
