Mozilla Firefox


Mozilla is a global, non-profit organisation and community, focused on making the Internet open, accessible and private. They are best known for creating the free, open-source Firefox Web browser in 2004, as a faster, more customisable, more private Web browser, which it continues to strive to be today.
Mozilla advocates for user rights, promoting open standards for a healthier web. We admire this philosophy, and we love their logos!

We have decided to spotlight Firefox in our Shortcut of the Week for the next few months. Many of the shortcuts are the same in all the main Web browsers, but there are some that are specific to Firefox, so we will explain this as we go along.
At time of posting, we are using Firefox version 152.0.6, running on Windows 11.

This Week's Shortcut:


We probably all know the copy and paste shortcuts; Control + C to copy selected text and Control + V for pasting into a destination document. But when we copy and paste from a webpage, we sometimes pick up a load of formatting as well.
If you want to just copy and paste the plain text from a webpage, select and copy as usual with Control + C, then use Control + Shift + V to paste into your document.

This works the same in all browsers.

You can find these shortcuts and previous shortcuts of the week on the website in the  <https://us.list-manage.com/TJSL4OMQcc7?e=89232c411c&c2id=6dad4b12106d943ba9b626aa26f28e3c> Shortcut of the Week section. As always, if you would like to find out or share a particular shortcut for an everyday task on your PC, please get in touch!

Stay safe and well and have a great week!
