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 147.0.1, running on Windows 11.

This Week's Shortcut:

The Bookmarks bar is a toolbar located at the top of the Firefox browser window, just beneath the Address bar. It is used to display shortcuts to websites that you visit often.
As it takes up space in the browser window, you can choose to show or hide it by pressing Control + Shift + B.
To get to the Bookmarks bar, go to the Address bar (Alt + D or F6) and Tab from there. Once you are on the Bookmarks bar, you can Arrow Left and Right to move to the Bookmark you want and press Enter to go there. To get back to the Webpage, press Down Arrow or F6.

There is a Bookmarks bar in Google Chrome, and a Favorites bar in Microsoft Edge, that behave in a similar way. Use F6 to move between the tool bars and the Webpage, and the rest is the same as above.

You can find these shortcuts and previous shortcuts of the week on the website in the  <https://us.list-manage.com/J0uxMPNhUlm?e=89232c411c&c2id=6dad4b12106d943ba9b626aa26f28e3c> Shortcut of the Week section.
