removing things in context menus

:-({|= all of them require the display:none !! :robot:[/quote]

Really? I have code like this in my userChrome and it still removed the save link and copy link. Is it because there only has to be one display:none for a long list of items?

/* Save Link As... */
#context-savelink { }

/* Copy Link Location */
#context-copylink { }

/* Copy Image Location */
#context-copyimage { }

/* Bookmark This Page... */
#context-bookmarkpage { display: none; }

wcarloss, I used your code and my firefox did not remove those items with { } only, not even pasting the whole bunch of code with the last with display:none. If your does..... well, I don't know. Maybe you have a mutant Firefox

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0

wcarloss, I am afraid you are mistaken. That format would not remove them all. This would however:

Code: Select all

#context-savelink,
#context-copylink,
#context-copyimage,
#context-bookmarkpage {
    display: none;
}

Great thread!
Those navigation options always bugged me.

I stand corrected about display:none. I was looking at the context menu for right clicking on a page instead of on a link, which is why I didn't see some of the items. I feel stupid.

Trying to remove the separator under "Forward" on the "Go" toolbar menu.

The following method worked everywhere else I used it

Code: Select all

menuitem[label="Forward"] + menuseparator { display: none !important; }

But but not for this task.

thx

I haven't been able to find (in this thread or other resources) where the attributes for the contextual menus for tabs are stored. I would like to reorder the items in the menu to be more like the order in Mozilla. I used Mozilla for so long before switching to Firefox that I expect "Close Tab" to be the first item in the menu rather than "New Tab." And it just seems a whole lot more intuitive (and easier on the mouse hand) that way.

Any help would be appreciated. If it matters, I'm using Firefox 1.0 on Mac OS X 10.3.6.

Forgive me if this question is too basic.

I want to hide the "Tools" menu, and I see from posts in this section that this is possible by altering code.

How do I get into the code to make this change?

Thanks

mgovatos, take a look at here:

http://www.extensionsmirror.nl/index.ph ... #entry5350

if you don't want to look

here's the code:

/* Hide selected browser menus */
#navigator-toolbox menu[label="Tools"]
{ display: none !important; }

All of the above "code info" is just brilliant - if I were more confident I would have gone that route instead of MenuEdit. M.E. allowed me to sort order and hide what I wanted quickly - but I'm sure did the same thing as you guys' code suggestions. I'm making it my mission over the next week to try and LEARN this stuff and do it the "old fashioned way!"

My question is once you've got the Context Menu "set," can you then UNINSTALL MenuEdit and have the changes stay "as is?" It would be one less extension and I'm finding that "less is more" with regards to FF speed; why have an extension that's done its duty "lingering?"

I'm looking for a way to disable the Filepicker. See my post below. Any ideas?

puke, so you want to disable downloading files when clicking on them? I don't know what's the Filepicker :-k

This isn't working anymore in 1.5 branch builds of Firefox. Am I doing something wrong or has something changed internally?

I want to remove these two items! I added all of the above to my userChrome.css (and i'm sure I'm editing the correct file because I have other entries in there which are working)

**EDIT** nevermind, saw it in the thread on the other forum linked above.
