Auto Complete in Firefox

Published by rakshit at 10:32 pm under Browsers Edit This

This is for those few souls who did not come across this very popular shortcut. In Firefox (and in most of the browsers) it is possible to auto complete the address of the website.

It is very annoying to type ‘http://www.” and the suffix ( .com, .org, .net etc) each time you want to visit a website. As this stuff is common for any website, the browsers provide you a way to automatically fill in the address.

Here are the shortcuts with examples:

Say, you want to visit http://www.today.com, all you have to  do is type ‘today’ in the address bar and then hit ‘Ctrl+Enter’ (Press and hold the Ctrl button and now hit Enter) and the browser will automatically fill in the complete addtess.

If you want to visit http://www.eenadu.net, type ‘eenadu’ and then ‘Shift+Enter’

If you want to visit http://www.baba.org, type ‘baba’ and then ‘Ctrl+Shift+Enter’

Cool?
