How to Show Menu Bar and Tool Bars in Shortcuts
If I create a Desktop shortcut to a web site such as
http://wlsam.com/article.asp?id=2227494&SPID=37725 my browser comes up without menu bars and tool bars at top, which I want and need. If I double click on the Firefox icon in my desktop, I get the bars just fine. If I then enter the same above URL the bars remain, which is fine. Can I get the bars when I got to a web site from a desktop shortcut? Thanks Big Fred |

May I ask - Can you do this and tell me what you get? 1) Create a short cut on your desktop pointing to http://wlsam.com/article.asp?id=2227494&SPID=37725 2) Double click on that shortcut to bring the site up in Firefox. Do you get the menu bar and tool bars at top of web page? I don't Thanks Big Fred |

However, Fred, maybe if you wrote how exactly you create the shortcut and what version of FF you use, we could maybe find out something. -- You'd be crazy to e-mail me with the crazy.

However, Fred, maybe if you wrote how exactly you create the shortcut and what version of FF you use, we could maybe find out something. Thanks guys. Unbelievable. I had FF v6.0, and it said I was uptodate. but I downloaded and installed v6.0.2 anyway, and guess what? My problem is gone. Now in case you are wondering why I was on that tangent, I wanted to execute FreeCorder from its toolbar because that seems to be the only way I can get it to correctly record streaming from a web broadcast site. That is, as I have said in earlier posts to this group, FreeCorder would record, but only video, not audio. It was driving me crazzzy. The toolbar has a record button that so far has worked every time I tried it. Why I can't get FreeCorder to work from its command window (my term), I have no idea. But as they say - if it works don't fix it. BTW as I said earlier, HyperCam would not work for me either. But it does work from its toolbar which has its record button also. Curious. Again, thanks Big Fred |

Can I get the bars when I got to a web site from a desktop shortcut? Not a Windows XP issue, the topic of this newsgroup. For question about Mozilla's product, they have their own NNTP server (news.mozilla.org) to which you can connect and ask their newsgroups about their web browser. Sounds like you somehow configured Firefox to open in fullscreen mode, or maybe you configured the attribute to open the app's window in fullscreen. A change was made between v2 and v3: the toolbar and menus in v3 will auto-hide. http://mozillalinks.org/2008/06/twea...l-screen-mode/ |
