firefox navigationI love Firefox and use it extensively for browsing due to availability of many add-ons. I open 20-30 sites at a time in firefox and sometimes it seems very difficult to go the required TAB.

There may be many ways to navigate and scroll the tabs of firefox but I have found these three ways and I decided to share with you people.

It was the third method which inspired me to write this post.

Easy Methods to navigate:

  1. The one method is by clicking on the d0wn-arrow on right side of the tabs as show in figure marked with (1). When you click on it, a drop down will appear with all opened windows. You can simply click on the tab which you want to open, or you can press the first letter of the site to open e.g., in above picture I will press R on keyboard and my site www.reviewpk.com will pop on screen.
  2. Another method is by simply clicking the left arrow and right arrow on the Tab Bar and you can navigate to the desired Tab.
  3. This method is very interesting. If you have got scroll wheel in your mouse, put the mouse pointer on the TABS and scroll the wheel and you will see that the TABs of firefox also scroll with the mouse scroll-wheel.
