Firefox Community Forum

I asked this question two years ago and the chosen solution no longer works for newer versions of Firefox. (135 in my case) . setting editor.use_div_for_default_newlines in about:config to FALSE does not work.

I am tired of pressing SHIFT <enter> to get <　br　> . Unnessessary <　div　>s make code harder to read.

Any new setting I could use to get
for pressing the enter key?

MOZILLA!

YOUR RIGHT VERTICAL SCROLLBAR IS A NIGHTMARE!

I get vertigo when i go to push or pull the scrollbar: If my mouse is a micron off the THIN scrollbar and i attempt to pull the bar, i get vertigo like using bad VR because my mind says the screen should be moving, but the scrollbar is not moving because i'm a micron off the bar BECAUSE THE BAR IS PAPER THIN.

I see many many users who are having the same issue but few are able to widen the scrollbar.

I go to "about:config"

then i put in the "widget" line that is blasted everywhere to make it wider, but the scrollbar never widens!!

Pleeease please folks, this is slowing down my workflow.

I'm using firefox: 135.0 (64-bit)

Please could someone offer a solution??

Thank you!

Changing Default Behavior (CSS)

When I'm reading on a computer screen, I hatehatehatedespisehatehatehate "widow and orphan" control. This is especially annoying when reading a long narrative passage that reflows so that a break (often a blank paragraph) falls at the bottom or top of a column/page. There are two relevant CSS properties, each taking a nonzero positive integer as an argument:

    widows: [number of lines]
    orphans: [number of lines]

It appears that Firefox has (like most browsers) established a "default" value of 2 in each of these parameters, which seldom appear in site-specific stylesheets. Do Not Want.

Is there a way to change this default behavior to the equivalent of:

    body {
         widows: 1;
         orphans: 1;}

without either (a) breaking anything or (b) having to redo whatever change every time there's a Firefox update?
