There are still webpages which contain full urls as plain text but without the link functionality.
What I mean: www.google.com
What I don’t mean: www.google.comIs there a keyboard shortcut in Firefox to open that url in a new tab after selecting it with the mouse? I know I could do
CTRL + C
,CTRL + T
,CTRL + V
,ENTER
but there should be something shorter. In Opera 12 you could doCTRL + B
to accomplish what I am looking for.
Answer
This ADD-ON : Search Selected Shortcuts
Alt + s
: Google search the selected text
Alt + q
: Google search the selected text, but also put them in Double Quotes. E.g. you’ve selected, say, best creed album, then it will do a search of “best creed album”
Alt + c
: Google search the selected text, but only search in the current site. I.e. it will do a search like, hackish site:stackoverflow.com
Alt + i
: Google image search
There is nothing native to FF that does what you are asking at this time according to Mozilla’s documentation.
