Opening Firefox tabs at the end of the tab row

January 21st, 2010

Firefox 3.6 was released today. I love it. Love it. One thing I wasn’t crazy about was a behaviour change when opening links in new tabs. Before 3.6, they opened at the end of the tab row, but now they open beside the tab you are currently on. Want to change it back?

  • “about:config” in your address bar.
  • search for “insertRelatedAfterCurrent”. The full config is “browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent”.
  • Set it to “false” (just click it until it toggles).
browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent

Enjoy!

CodeIgniter update, Jan 2010

January 18th, 2010

There’s been some really neat activity on the CodeIgniter front recently. Great stuff.

Jamie Rumbelow has taken over as CodeIgniter Community Cheiftain, after an admirable job by the imminent Michael Wales. We’re lucky to have both as part of our community.

Rick Ellis has discovered Twitter (see him @rickellis) and is dropping all kinds of cool news about CI and EllisLab.

The CodeIgniter repository itself is getting a bit more love recently due to a few folks putting in their own time. Here’s how I spent my weekend (check out both the time (yup, 3am) and message of rev 1789 :)

Recent CI changelog activities

There’s a lot of exciting things ahead for the framework - its a great time to be involved!
