Firefox : always display the address bar

August 11, 2007 - 5 comments

It is sometimes tedious when websites try to “hide” the URL in an attempt to prevent you from downloading some content.

Here’s the fix :

1. Type “about:config” in the address bar
2. Find dom.disable_window_open_feature.location
3. Double click to set the value to true

I would like to install Red Hat Linux 9 (shrike0 on a pentium III machine. I want my users to search our Library OPAC only. That is I want to restrict them to one site only and not any other site on the intranet. So I want to hide the address bar.

Of course my users can access the Internet as I use squid server to stop this.

So I need information pertaining the other way round

you could set up a firewall on the box.. only allowing DNS resolution, DHCP, and web access to the IP of the server ?
