Why does Firefox not auto fill in the location bar for bookmarks, tags and webpages?
With the following Firefox 18.0.1 settings on MAC OS X 10.8.2 the auto fill in does not work at all:
History: Remember Location Bar: History and Bookmarks
While I was browsing through the forum I found this article:
http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/937709?esab=a&s=history&r=35&as=s
So I changed browser.urlbar.autoFill.typed to false and since then auto fill in works for webpages, bookmarks and tags. Should auto fill in not work with the option set to true??
