How do I disable the block image feature. I keep hitting the "B" button instead of the "V" button when downloading pictures.

I use the key board to download images. When I right click a picture the menu comes up. To download the image you hit the "V" button, BUT The "B" is right next to it. That blocks all pictures from that site. How do I disable the "B" button. I have large fingers.

Add code to userChrome.css below the @namespace line.

@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */
#context-blockimage {display:none!important;}

I'm Glad I got a Reply, BUT, I haven't the slightest idea what the person is taking about. I barely know how to turn the computer on no less enter my own string of code (or whatever I'm supposed to do at that web address). But thanks any way. I'll just have to suffer until technology catches up to my expectations - "Hello, computer load file....."- A La Start Trek.

The steps I described above are a way to remove that the context menu entry to block images to prevent you from invoking it.

You can also use the Menu Editor extension to remove that menu entry.


Without the Menu Editor extension you need to create a file userChrome.css in the chrome folder in the Firefox Profile Folder and add the text that I posted above to that file.
You can access the Firefox Profile Folder via this button:

  • Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder

This extension can help to make it easier to create and edit userChrome.css.
