At the top of the Keyconfig configuration window (accessible via Tools -> Keyconfig) there is a pull-down menu listing the windows and tabs which you currently have open in Firefox. If you don’t select ‘global’ when you’re in the ‘Add a new key’ page, the Key you add will only apply to the window/tab selected in the pull-down, which may not be what you desire. To avoid this make sure you select ‘Mozilla Firefox’.

Mike -

Thanks for the feedback - the direction is fixed!

Keep in mind that the only bug with this little customization is if your cursor is in a text field in one of your tabs, then you’ll have to click on the page (non-text field area) and all will be working again.

I always wondered whether this was possible. Thanks for the tip!

The first line of code, however, is for switch tab right, not left as you wrote above.

Great post.
