Hi, The small feature I found out in firefox today went unnoticed to me for years. I found out by accident that typing the popular links without www and com part (for example google) and pressing ctrl+enter in firefox adds the missin www & com part in the url and brings to the www.google.com. I was happy to find out this little but very useful feature in firefox (thanks firefox guys. I found this very helpful feature for the people who often make typo mistakes or new to computer and web). I tried it with common ".com" sites and works well but not for other domains like ".net" or ".org". Is there a way to configure firefox to look for other domains as well??? if Yes how? and is there any other small featuers I might be missing like this one?
I think (someone correct me if I'm wrong) this was requested feature that the Mozilla developers implemented to work like an IE feature. I beleive Internet Explorer had it a very long time ago. So not quite an "easter egg", but nice feature all the same. -Mauriat
