Not to reopen a long dead, thread, but...ok, that's what I want to do. It seems that this is broken on unix again. Double clicking selects the whole URL. The default for:
browser.urlbar.doubleClickSelectsAll on Unix, is true. This means that double clicking doesn't stop at punctuation, because it doesn't stop at all, it just selects the whole URL. So was this whole bug for nothing? According to this wiki: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.urlbar.doubleClickSelectsAll The behavior was changed to restore "double click selects all" on Unix. But then, how can one double click to select a word? In windows, the default is different, meaning that double clicking to select a word works. The wiki states that it required "triple clicking" to select the URL. In windows, single clicking selects the URL. Should the same default be considered for Unix? Even if not, though, there should be a way to select individual words in the URL. Again, what was the point of having the "stops on punctuation" setting if not to enable selection of "words"? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/50254 Title: Ctrl-Backspace should stop_at_punctuation To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/firefox/+bug/50254/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
