Mouse-less Firefox
Navigation from the toolbar
The address bar shortcut should be as instinctual as breathing by now, but there’s a few more shortcuts to that top bar that you should keep in mind.
- Select location bar: Ctrl/Cmd+L or Alt+D
- Select search bar: Ctrl/Cmd+K
- Back: Backspace or Alt/Cmd+Left
- Forward: Alt/Option+Right or Shift+Backspace
- Change search engine: Ctrl/Cmd+Down (Next) +Up (Previous)
Searching pages
The find-as-you-type feature was an epiphany. While Google is great at getting you to the right web page, Firefox’s find-as-you-type feature gets you the rest of the way.
- Find as you type text: /
- Find as you type link: ‘
- Regular old find: Ctrl/Cmd+F
Grab bag
The following shortcuts fall into a more general grab bag of useful shortcuts.
- Caret browsing: F7
- Refresh: Ctrl/Cmd+R or F5
- Refresh (override cache): Ctrl/Cmd+F5 or Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+R
- Switch tabs: Ctrl/Cmd+Tab
- Select tab (1-9): Ctrl/Cmd+[1-9]
