URL input focus on new window/tab (wish dev)
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
Hi, Just a small dev wish to make Galeon nicer to use: get focus on the URL input bar after opening a new window/tab. Mozilla does so. I found the current behavior quite boring. I'm used to press "atl+t" to open a new tab and directly type the url I want to access. Using Mozilla, and thanks to its automatic focus on the URL input bar, it is straightforward. With Galeon 1.3.x, there's no such a focus, and typing directly the address activates the "find as you type" feature, which makes Galeon to complain and biiiip: Link not found: "htt" Besides this, very nice work :) Ced
