Hi friends, I need to watch Offline a series of professional videos from a website I study with. I'll be in a place with no internet for a while so I wish to know how to use the "work offline" modality to do that. Can the browser "remember" videos in the same way it remembers visited page?

I remember in the 90s / 2000s was possible to "save" pages to read Offline later on... Is that still possible?

Thanks

I want to navigate on search results using the keyboard. I could use tab but it suggests all interactive elements such as news, images, books, videos, search settings and etc one by one. I want to press something and make active first result, then second. If such hotkeys are not provided, maybe there are any extensions with similar functionality?

I've chosen Tips and tricks, hopefully it means this will be an article/explanation instead of a question. I had the opposite problem to PDF files should not download, only open in browser and was happy to find out in the OP attachment that the action for each file-types could be changed. I didn't want my bandwidth strain of having to download PDF twice anymore (especially ones with many images).

I was going to leave the following on a comment of the other thread but it was locked.

I hope this message finds you well! I use two versions of Firefox: the stable one and the developer one.

The developer version is set to start with the Windows start and is set to be minimized on the Windows try but since some years Firefox, as other browser do, never load the page or the tab content if the tab or the window is not active, been seen by the user.

I'm asking if there is some hidden settings in the about:config that allow me to disable this and let Firefox load tabs or page always, not only when the tab or windows is seen by me.

Thank you.

I have previously been able to include the tab 'Close Tab' item in the #contentAreaContextMenu by adding it to browser.xhtml. This no longer works even though 'Reopen Closed Tab' and 'New Tab' still do.

     <menuitem id="toolbar-context-openANewTab"
               command="cmd_newNavigatorTab"
               data-l10n-id="toolbar-context-menu-new-tab"/>
     <menuitem id="context_closeTab"
               label="Close Tab"
               data-lazy-l10n-id="tab-context-close-n-tabs"
               data-l10n-args='{"tabCount": 1}'/>
     <menuitem id="context_undoCloseTab"
               label="Reopen Closed Tab"
               data-l10n-id="tab-context-reopen-closed-tabs"
               data-l10n-args='{"tabCount": 1}'
               observes="History:UndoCloseTab"/>


I was previously using the following which no longer works either.

     <menuitem id="context_closeTab"
               label="Close Tab"
               oncommand="BrowserCloseTabOrWindow(event);"/>
