I'm on Firefox 26.0. Back around seven or so, or maybe seventeen, it had this feature: you could grab the little icon right left of the URL and drag it to a Finder container, and... a teensy file would appear, named something intelligent, with the extension ".webloc".

Now it won't do that. The same gesture opens a new window with the present window's URL preset -- A very useful feature, keep it, by all means. I know just when to use it.

But I lost my Grab to a Finder window. I could put all the web references on a topic in a folder. Of course, I'd rename them. But then when I decided to study a topic -- there they'd be!

No more. Sniff.

Or. maybe... Did y'all put it somewhere's else?

You're welcome.

Thanks for confirming that holding the Command key works. I'm on Linux and tested it by holding down the Ctrl key.

Any luck with holding down the Command key or Option key when dragging the globe/padlock on the location bar?

Command does it! (Option doesn't.)

Thanks for the suggestion, cor-el. That works.

Both of the references you provided describe the feature but neither mentions having to use the Command key.

Well, no matter; you figured it out. Thanks for the help.
