  • Firefox Regular Expression Tester

    I typically bumble about looking for something to test my regular expressions, and today I stumbled across the regular expression tester for Firefox. It's likely not perfect, but it seems to work pretty well….

  • Bloglines Toolkit 1.6.2

    This morning I released a new version of the Bloglines Toolkit (version 1.6.2, for those playing at home)….

  • Firefox Tab Navigation via Keyboard

    While I'm sure everyone else in the world knows this, apparently in Firefox (at least version 1.5, under Windows XP), you can switch between tabs with your arrow keys. Holy Robin Hood, Batman! You see, I've been trying to decide if I could do without the LastTab extension…

  • Windows Genuine Advantage in Mozilla

  • Too Many Firefox Tabs

    As I was doing my fiddling today, I think I overloaded Firefox. It had 48 tabs on-screen, and there were others that I couldn't see. Using CTRL-TAB to switch between them became impossible. Even viewing them (while selected) didn't work – tabs at the end of the list…

  • Multiple Homepages in Firefox

    While I'd noticed the Use Current Pages button previously, I had never paid attention in order to set up multiple start pages manually. Now I know how to do it. Pipes are your friend….

  • Firefox Memory Usage

    First, while I do create some software, I am not what should be called a developer. I don't have the experience. With that out of the way, it seems to me that Firefox (1.0.3) is using up a decent amount of memory on my (Windows XP) system. When…
