"Close Tab" and "Go"

[Santiago]

Hello!

1) Is there a way to get the "Close Tab" Option to the top of the menu, when right-clicking on a tab? It annoys me that I always have to go to the bottom of the menu to do that, since it's usually the only option of that menu I use.

2) In the secound section of the Go-menu is a list of sites I visited. Is there a way to get that function deactivated?

I am using Firebird 0.7

generally only by extension or hacking the xbl/xul code

toolkit.jar!/content/global/widgets/tabbrowser.xml
[ toolkit.jar!/content/global/bindings/tabbrowser.xml for newer nightlies ]

1. reordering xul:menuitems in this section of code

Code: Select all

  <binding id="tabbrowser">
    <resources>
      <stylesheet src="chrome://global/skin/browser.css"/>
    </resources>

    <content>
      <xul:stringbundle src="chrome://global/locale/tabbrowser.properties"/>
      <xul:tabbox flex="1" xbl:inherits="handleCtrlPageUpDown"
                  onselect="if (!('updateCurrentBrowser' in this.parentNode) || event.target.localName != 'tab$
        <xul:hbox class="tabbrowser-strip chromeclass-toolbar" collapsed="true" tooltip="_child" context="_chi$
          <xul:tooltip onpopupshowing="event.preventBubble(); if (document.tooltipNode.hasAttribute('label')) $
          <xul:menupopup onpopupshowing="this.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.updatePopupMenu(this);">
            <xul:menuitem label="&newTab.label;" accesskey="&newTab.accesskey;"
                          xbl:inherits="oncommand=onnewtab"/>
            <xul:menuseparator/>
            <xul:menuitem label="&reloadTab.label;" accesskey="&reloadTab.accesskey;"
                          oncommand="var tabbrowser = this.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode;
                                     tabbrowser.reloadTab(tabbrowser.mContextTab);"/>
            <xul:menuitem label="&reloadAllTabs.label;" accesskey="&reloadAllTabs.accesskey;"
                          tbattr="tabbrowser-multiple"
                          oncommand="var tabbrowser = this.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode;
                                     tabbrowser.reloadAllTabs(tabbrowser.mContextTab);"/>
            <xul:menuitem label="&closeOtherTabs.label;" accesskey="&closeOtherTabs.accesskey;"
                          tbattr="tabbrowser-multiple"
                          oncommand="var tabbrowser = this.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode;
                                     tabbrowser.removeAllTabsBut(tabbrowser.mContextTab);"/>
            <xul:menuseparator/>
            <xul:menuitem label="&closeTab.label;" accesskey="&closeTab.accesskey;"
                          tbattr="tabbrowser-multiple"
                          oncommand="var tabbrowser = this.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode;
                                     tabbrowser.removeTab(tabbrowser.mContextTab);"/>
          </xul:menupopup>

browser.jar!/content/browser/browser.xul

2. removing onpopupshowing ( and possibly onpopuphiding ) in this code

Code: Select all

<menupopup id="goPopup" onpopupshowing="updateGoMenu(this);" onpopuphiding="onGoMenuHidden();">

To close the active tab, I find it much easier to just click on the Close Tab "X" icon at the extreme right of the tab bar.

1. Worked! Thanks.

2. Didn't work, but i've found this section in browser.xul

Code: Select all

<menu label="&goMenu.label;" accesskey="&goMenu.accesskey;" oncommand="var url = event.target.getAttribute('statustext'); if (url) openTopWin(url);">
              <menupopup id="goPopup" onpopupshowing="updateGoMenu(this);" onpopuphiding="onGoMenuHidden();">
                <menuitem label="&backCmd.label;"    accesskey="&backCmd.accesskey;"    key="goBackKb"    command="Browser:Back"/>
                <menuitem label="&forwardCmd.label;" accesskey="&forwardCmd.accesskey;" key="goForwardKb" command="Browser:Forward"/>
                <menuitem label="&goHomeCmd.label;"    accesskey="&goHomeCmd.accesskey;"    command="Browser:Home" key="goHome"/>
                <menuseparator id="startHistorySeparator"/>
                <menuseparator hidden="true" id="endHistorySeparator"/>
                <menuitem accesskey="&historyCmd.accesskey;" command="viewHistorySidebar" key="key_gotoHistory"/>
              </menupopup>
            </menu>

I've simply removed the lines
<menuseparator id="startHistorySeparator"/>
<menuseparator hidden="true" id="endHistorySeparator"/>
and it worked. The list of visited sites is gone.
Thanks again.
