Firefox Portable

Setting cookies in user.js

Submitted by josepinto on January 8, 2007 - 11:56am

Hi,

I understand that Portable Firefox is hardcoded to prevent accepting cookies, even if you set Firefox to accept cookies.
However, I knew that one can set Portable Firefox to accept cookies by modifying the file user.js, but forgot how to do it.
Can someone tell me which setting it is?

Thanks in advance,

José Pinto

File Asociation

Submitted by gabriel626 on January 7, 2007 - 12:43pm

Hi.
First at all: Tanks for ur work and sorry by my english(i'm spanish speaker)
I use Portable Firefox in a usb pendrive and also in my desktop pc(just backup portablefirefox folder when formating... =)). I have associated *.shtml, *.htm, *.html, *.xht and *.xhtml to FirefoxPortable.exe so the asociations works fine with filenames with no spaces, but when the filename has one o more spaces firefox doesnt open the file.
Looks like FirefoxPortable.exe pass the filename to Firefox.exe without the "" ... i'm right? that can be fixed?

Thanks!!!
Grabriel.

Where's the cache?

Submitted by fergus on January 6, 2007 - 9:51am

Sorry, this must have been asked and answered 00s of times already, but I can't find it. I downloaded FF 2.0 and auto-updated to FF 2.0.0.1 no problem. No default settings have been altered at all. (I like them as they are.) When surfing there's no usb activity at all (good; everything is very fast) but screen presentation on second and subsequent page visits is not just fast, it's instantaneous. Where are all the pages, images, etc being cached? RAM? the HD?

Error message: Firefox is already running when running under wine with Suse 10.2

Submitted by eric11210 on January 5, 2007 - 4:57pm

Hi all,

I hope someone here can help me. I'm relatively new to Linux. I was a windows user for a long time but got increasingly frustrated with it and switched over a few days ago. I have a pocket drive with my portable firefox and gaimportable on it. Can't get either to work. Firefox keeps saying another instance of firefox is already running but not responding. It needs to be cleared if I want to load up or I need to go and reboot. Trouble is, this is just after I reboot. So Firefox isn't running.

Using VLC 0.8.6 plugin in Portable Firefox

Submitted by Spellcoder on January 5, 2007 - 9:49am

I get the plugin working in normal Firefox 1.5 / 2 by copying npvlc.dll, libvlc.dll and part of the plugins from /vlc/plugins to the Firefox/Plugins map.

However both Portable Firefox and Mobile Firefox crash when the plugin is initialized. Portable Firefox 2 for some reason doesn't crash, but it won't react to any play() commands I give it either.
When bypassing the mobile/portable part by not using the loader, but directly using firefoxportable/App/firefox/firefox.exe (in PortableFirefox2) it works.

SPLASH!

Submitted by berdar on January 4, 2007 - 1:34pm

Like many people here, I've disabled the default splash screen of Firefox Portable. I am using the Add On SPLASH! to make a photo of my Gran daughter my splash screen.

Over the course of my work day, I may use 4-5 PCs. Is there any way to make the path of the .jpg that SPLASH! uses relative? That would allow her photo to always be my splash screen instead of getting a blank box when the drive shows up as anything other than E://

I've search the forums and haven't found anything about this.

Thanks in advance,

Berdar
