Is it possible to assign a key shortcut to "click" the Firefox Button (version 4 or above)?
TIA!

Hi dorando,
Can you help me to create a hotkey to toggle Image Animation from normal to none - none to normal?
About:config: image.animation_mode

Thank you, have a nice day xD~

There are some commands absent like cmd_scrollTop from platformHTMLBindings.xml.

view-source:chrome://global/content/platformHTMLBindings.xml

Is it possible to list these commands as well?

You can access it as a XMLDocument with

Code: Select all

var request =  new XMLHttpRequest();
request.open("GET", "chrome://global/content/platformHTMLBindings.xml", false);
request.send(null);

alert(request.responseXML); 

Is it possible to change the default key combination for switching tabs "ctrl+tab" with this combination "alt+~" ?

No, but you can Add a new key containing

Code: Select all

gBrowser.tabContainer.advanceSelectedTab(1,true); 

just noted a minor behavioural change:

hitting s would hitherto toggle star / unstar (bookmark) the current tab:

Code: Select all

if(PlacesStarButton._starred) {
 StarUI._itemId = PlacesUtils.getMostRecentBookmarkForURI(gBrowser.currentURI);
 StarUI.removeBookmarkButtonCommand();
} else {
 PlacesCommandHook.bookmarkCurrentPage(false);
} 

Now, unfortunately, the unstar bit does not work anymore.

Try

Code: Select all

if(PlacesStarButton._itemIds[0]) {
 StarUI._uriForRemoval = PlacesUtils.bookmarks.getBookmarkURI(PlacesStarButton._itemIds[0]);
 StarUI._actionOnHide = "remove";
 StarUI.handleEvent({type: "popuphidden", originalTarget: StarUI.panel})
} else {
 PlacesCommandHook.bookmarkCurrentPage(false);
} 

"CopyCurrentURI"

Try

Code: Select all

var ClipboardHelper = Components.classes["@mozilla.org/widget/clipboardhelper;1"]
.getService(Components.interfaces.nsIClipboardHelper);

ClipboardHelper.copyString(content.location); 

"OpenCookieInfo"

Using chrome://browser/content/pageinfo/security.js as a base try

Code: Select all

var wm = Components.classes["@mozilla.org/appshell/window-mediator;1"].getService(Components.interfaces.nsIWindowMediator);
var win = wm.getMostRecentWindow("Browser:Cookies");
var eTLDService = Components.classes["@mozilla.org/network/effective-tld-service;1"].getService(Components.interfaces.nsIEffectiveTLDService);

var eTLD;
var uri = content.document.documentURIObject;
try {
 eTLD = eTLDService.getBaseDomain(uri);
} catch (e) {
 eTLD = uri.asciiHost;
}

if (win) {
 win.gCookiesWindow.setFilter(eTLD);
 win.focus();
} else {
 window.openDialog("chrome://browser/content/preferences/cookies.xul", "Browser:Cookies", "", {filterString : eTLD});
} 

"Copy link text"
"copy link location"

The code I posted previously works for me in Firefox 4.

"Organize Statusbar""

If you want to customize the Add-on bar try

Code: Select all

BrowserCustomizeToolbar(); 

If you refer to the Add-on Organize Status Bar try

Code: Select all

objOSB.Options() 

Where can I download a copy of keyconfig that will work in Windows for Firefox 4.0.1?

The first post.

Where can I find a list of the Codes too?

Nowhere, but see the post from morat.

Dorando, FYI, the current Thunderbird release update isn't reflected in update.rdf.

Thunderbird 3.1.10 is build on top of XULRunner/Toolkit 1.9.2.17 which is in the covered range.

Is it possible to assign a key shortcut to "click" the Firefox Button (version 4 or above)?

See my answer to rpz79.

Can you help me to create a hotkey to toggle Image Animation from normal to none - none to normal?
About:config: image.animation_mode

Try

Code: Select all

var val = gBrowser.mPrefs.getCharPref("image.animation_mode") == "normal" ? "none" : "normal";
gBrowser.mPrefs.setCharPref("image.animation_mode", val);

Hm. Not sure why it wouldn't update directly when I upgraded then. I just used MRTechToolkit to mark it as compatible which my standard workaround.

[Cattleya]

Thank you so much, dorando xD

Hope you will help me again, I have two issues:
- Is it possible to assign a key shortcut to press hotkey, example:
I press Ctrl + U, keyconfig will press Ctrl + S.

- And how to press Enter in keyconfig, I only find something like "cmd_copy", "cmd_paste" but nothing for Enter.

@dorando

Thanks for reply.

Here is the finished script in case someone else is interested.

Code: Select all

// copy list of commands to clipboard
// some commands are only legal when there is a selection
// or when the focus is anywhere where you can type text
var commands = document.getElementsByTagName("command");
var out = new Array();
var info = Components.classes["@mozilla.org/xre/app-info;1"].
  getService(Components.interfaces.nsIXULAppInfo);
var type = document.documentElement.getAttribute("windowtype");
out.push(info.name + " " + info.version, "", type, "");
for (var i = 0; i < commands.length; i++) {
  var id = commands[i].getAttribute("id");
  var oncommand = commands[i].getAttribute("oncommand");
  if (id && oncommand) out.push(id);
}
var req =  new XMLHttpRequest();
req.open("GET", "chrome://global/content/platformHTMLBindings.xml", false);
req.send(null);
var doc = req.responseXML;
var handlers = doc.getElementsByTagName("handler");
for (var i = 0; i < handlers.length; i++) {
  var command = handlers[i].getAttribute("command");
  if (command && out.indexOf(command) == -1) out.push(command);
}
var clipboard = Components.classes["@mozilla.org/widget/clipboardhelper;1"].
  getService(Components.interfaces.nsIClipboardHelper);
if (navigator.platform.indexOf("Win")) {
  clipboard.copyString(out.join("\n"));
} else {
  clipboard.copyString(out.join("\r\n"));
}
alert("done");

The Keyconfig Thunderbird page is missing 30 commands for the main window.
These 30 commands do not include the commands in the platformHTMLBindings.xml file.

I've looked around ... I don't see anything that explicitly states that keyconfig works in FF 4. Is this the case? Or has the FF team FINALLY integrated the functionality into the product?

Also, using keyconfig or otherwise, is there a way to export a list of all active FF shortcuts, say to a csv file or the like?

Thanks!

How do I properly set up a new keyboard shortcut for opening Firefox (4's) options?

[dorando]

- Is it possible to assign a key shortcut to press hotkey, example:
I press Ctrl + U, keyconfig will press Ctrl + S.

Try

Code: Select all

var utils = content.QueryInterface(Components.interfaces.nsIInterfaceRequestor).
getInterface(Components.interfaces.nsIDOMWindowUtils);

utils.sendKeyEvent("keypress", 0, KeyEvent.DOM_VK_S, Event.CONTROL_MASK); 

- And how to press Enter in keyconfig, I only find something like "cmd_copy", "cmd_paste" but nothing for Enter.

Try

Code: Select all

var utils = content.QueryInterface(Components.interfaces.nsIInterfaceRequestor).
getInterface(Components.interfaces.nsIDOMWindowUtils);

utils.sendKeyEvent("keypress", KeyEvent.DOM_VK_RETURN, 0, 0); 

I've looked around ... I don't see anything that explicitly states that keyconfig works in FF 4. Is this the case?

The latest version works with Firefox 4.

Also, using keyconfig or otherwise, is there a way to export a list of all active FF shortcuts, say to a csv file or the like?

Listing all active shortcuts is unlikely, but for listing all enabled <key>s something like

Code: Select all

var output = [];

for(var i = 0, l = gKeys.length; i < l; i++) {
 var key = gKeys[i];
 if(key.shortcut != gStrings.disabled)
  output.push(gKeys[i].shortcut+"\t\t" + gKeys[i].name);
}

alert(output.join("\n")); 

should work (select the keyconfig window from the dropdown and Add a new key).

How do I properly set up a new keyboard shortcut for opening Firefox (4's) options?

Add a new key containing

Code: Select all

openPreferences();

Thanks!

Listing all active shortcuts is unlikely, but for listing all enabled <key>s something like

I did this, added a key, named it "List active shortcuts", and pasted in the code beginning with "var ...". I assigned a shortcut (alt-ctrl-L), closed the keyconfig window, and tried the shortcut. But nothing seems to have happened.

I did not make the shortcut global, as I do not know what effect that will have.

If you have a further suggestion, I would be grateful!

[Layl]

can plz u help me make a trigger-shortcut to enable and disable adblock ?

Add a new key to the keyconfig window itself (select it from the dropdown) and press the combination while the keyconfig window is active (the text in the alert is selectable).

Try

Code: Select all

var pref = 'extensions.adblockplus.enabled';
gPrefService.setBoolPref(pref,!gPrefService.getBoolPref(pref)); 

and is there a solution to remove scrolling when you press Space ?

Add a new key without any code and assign Space to it.
