Getting Firefox out of full-screen
Sorry if this is the wrong place ot ask, but I could not find a
comp.webbrowsers or alt.comp.webbrowsers group.... The menus and space for entering URLs have disappeared from Firefox. Perhaps I pressed a wrong key somewhere -- how can I get them back? -- Steve Hayes http://www.khanya.org.za/stevesig.htm http://khanya.wordpress.com |

Perhaps I pressed a wrong key somewhere -- how can I get them back? I think it's F11 for toggling full screen - somewhere around there, anyway. Though in full-screen mode, I think if you also move the mouse somewhere (near top of screen is it?) the address box/bar reappears. -- J. P. Gilliver.

There are some parts of the universe where it's harder to get hold of. - Peter Capaldi (current incumbent Doctor), RT 2016/11/26-12/2 |
