mozilla firefox help: opening bookmarks in tabs using scroll wheel and two more questions?

Question

Hey, my firefox recently reset on me. Now, when I try to open a bookmark by clicking the scroll wheel when the bookmark is highlighted, it doesn’t open in a new tab. It doesn’t do anything at all. I find this odd as it used to work for me. It also works like this on my other computer. Is it a setting or option, or how do I fix this?

Also, when I type on firefox sometimes it likes to put my cursor behind a letter that I typed so that my words get scrambled up. It hapensp < - sort of like that. The ens is typed after the p but put before it as the cursor went before the p when I typed.

Also, does delete always make it so that once you activate it, all the letters you type go before the previous letter? Siht sa hcus? (such as this).

Answer 1

I'm not too sure about the first one, but I might be able to help you with the other two.

For the first one, I'd suggest either reinstalling FireFox or searching around the settings for an option that can fix that.

For the second question, it could be possible that you're hitting the left arrow key as you type, but if you're on a laptop, it may be possible that your thumb or another finger is touching the touchpad, therefore causing you to move the cursor without you even knowing you did.

With laptops, if you tap the touchpad, it actually right clicks. I'm not sure if it does this with all, but I know it does it with some of them.

And for the third question, the Delete button deletes items, similar to the Back Space, but it works a little differently. If you put your cursor in front of the word you wish to delete and press the Delete button, it should delete the word from the left of it.

Good luck and I hope I helped you with your questions!
