Firefox 1.5: middle-clicking URLs doesn't work now.
I just upgraded to package firefox 1.5.dfsg-4. I used to be able to select URLs in another window and middle-click in Firefox to load them, but it has stopped working and I can't find a configuration option to reinstate this function. Could anyone tell me how to get it back? -- Thanks, Adam -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Not quite but very close! I had to set middlemouse.contentLoadURL to true -- which I wouldn't have found without your suggestion.

And if you find that firefox forgets your setting when you restart it, you may find you need to go to the preferences window, change something, change it back, and then click close. At least last time I checked, changing anything in about:config forgot to save the changes to the preferences file, so you had to force it to save the settings via doing something in the preferences dialog. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
