    Question on firefox tabs?

    is there a way to switch tabs without using your mouse, just the keyboard? i know it seems trivial but i was just wondering.

    Use the tab key until a Firefox tab is highlighted, then the left, right, arrow keys will select the Firefox tab.
    Or..
    ctrl+1 selects leftmost tab.
    Ctrl+2-8 will select tabs from left to right.
    ctrl+9 selects the rightmost tab.
    More are shown here, though it is an old page.

      Anyone know a solution for Firefox pages becoming black?
      Installed Nvidia 347 drivers through Windows Update, also tried disabling hardware acceleration in Firefox settings, nothing helps.
      Only way to not get black pages it to have less than 5 tabs open.
      With Chrome & Opera there is no such problem.

        I'm using Firefox a little less these days, but I have not heard of this problem before. Does it also happen when in private-browsing mode? What about if you disable your plugins/extensions, BHOs, etc?
        Firefox help on browser issues is pretty basic, doubt it will help.

          Here are some screenshots with the problem I'm battling with.
          Happens when I have more than about 10 tabs open.
          Only way to fix corruption is to close Firefox and start again with no tabs.
          The only help I found was to install the latest Nvidia drivers which I did and disable hardware acceleration in Firefox settings, nothing helps.
          Only have Adblock & Download Manager as addons installed.

              I cleared it and increased to 500MB.
              Hope it helps for a while.
              I think it might have something to do with cache as the old data might get cleared and replaced by new and then cause the corruption in the tabs.
