how to go back or forward more 15 pages?

Post by quisco »

How can I, using Mozilla Firefox, go IMMEDIATELY back in a page visited more max. 15 items present in navigation bar? How can I increase items of page visited (I don't want use history)?

Not easily. You will need to edit the file content/browser/browser.js (which is part of browser.jar, in the chrome directory of your browser’s installed directory. Find the line where <code>MAX_HISTORY_MENU_ITEMS</code> is set to 15, and increase it.

You will also need to make sure that browser.sessionhistory.max_entries is set high enough in about:config.

And I would think this will come at a cost in either performance or memory use, but I stand to be corrected

Holy Old Thread Batman!

It is great that you are searching first but a LOT has changed since the version being discussed about way back then

Please start a new thread instead of digging up ancient threads from 2006.
