Mozilla Firefox tip for dummies like me

[Bill58]

Most of you techies have already figured this out, but maybe this is helpful for the rest of us PC "dummies". I loaded Mozilla Firefox to view RFF better, but didn't like it as much as Internet Explorer for the rest of the web. So I kept it solely for RFF. I click on the Mozilla Firefox icon on my screen, then go to Bookmarks, then to RFF. Works great--"got my cake and can eat it too".

"Starting page" is also known as homepage?

Yes, under Tools/Options/Main/Home Page.

Correct, the home page. In Firefox, click Tools, then scroll down to Options and click that. The options window opens. Click the 'Main' tab on the far left if that is not the default tab. You will see under the Start-Up section where you have the ability to make RFF your home page. Enter in the URL, click OK, and you're done. RFF will now display automatically when you launch the browser. Hope this helps!

Sorry, I did not know how it is called in the English version. I use the German skin.

No problem. I was just asking for clarification. Very useful info to save time and clicks.

Thanks,
Bill
