Setting location bar feature in FF6 as in FF3.6
Is there any possibility to set the location bar in FF6 to work as in FF 3.6, it means that location bar is intelligent in case of typing certian keywords. For example in FF3.6 when I type in loc. bar phrase "wp" it automaticlly opens www.wp.pl, when I type "gmail" I get www.gmail.com, but when I type phrase which cannot be simply identified with any domain it's providing me a google search results about this phrase. It was very very useful feature, and usung it is the only one thing that hold me to use newer versions of FF than FF6. I hope you can find some solution for that :)
kind regards Piotr Skrzypczyk

You can change the value of keyword.URL in your about:config to
which is Google's "Browse by Name" (Automatically takes you to sites with a clear match, else performs a Google search) (default in Firefox 2)
- type in about:config into the location bar (in a new tab)
- if the warning message nonsense comes up uncheck the box before dismissing the dialog message
- filter on keyword
- right-click on keyword.URL and choose "modify" then paste in the Google search engine string of your choice.

FWIW, I turn off all default (external) on the Location bar, to prevent misdirection on mistyped words. I prefer to use keyword shortcuts

in my reply above you probably want to substitute www.google.pl for www.google.com
