Some useful shortcuts for Firefox
May 7th, 2009
My most-used shortcuts:
F6 or Ctrl+L : Gets you right up into the Address/URL bar.
F5 : Reload the page.
Ctrl+F : Find what you’re looking for on the page. I also just learned you can “quick search” by using just the / key!
Ctrl+T : Opens a new tab. If you’re spending time clicking the new tab icon all day, you’re missing out!
Ctrl+K : Takes you to the Firefox search box.
Ctrl+U : View the page’s source.
F11 : View the page in full-screen mode.
Ctrl+W : Closes the active tab.
Ctrl+= : Increases font size.
Ctrl+- : Decreases font size.
Ctrl+Shift+T : Opens the last closed tab. No more right-clicking and asking Firefox to open the tab you accidentally closed!
