How to disable Firefox 3 address bar smart completing

Filed under: Computer, Miscellaneous — alessandrolacava @ 12:01 pm

I don’t know about you, but i don’t really like the new firefox smart location bar feature. To disable it and rollback to the firefox 2 version you need to edit two entries in the firefox configuration. Here’s what you need to do:

1. Open a new tab.

2. Type about:config in the address bar and hit the enter key.

3. Search for urlbar in the Filter text box.

4. Change browser.urlbar.matchOnlyTyped to true and browser.urlbar.maxRichResults to 1 or any number of results you want firefox to suggest.

I hope this helps.


Object not found | EasyPHP | MySQL | phpMyAdmin

After installing EasyPHP, when you try to run phpMyAdmin you might get the following error:

Object not found!

The requested URL was not found on this server. If you entered the URL manually please check your spelling and try again.

This might be due to the fact that it tries the following URL:

http://127.0.0.1/mysql/

Try this one instead:

http://127.0.0.1/home/mysql/

If it works then you can work it out by adding the following line to the httpd.conf file of Apache (you can find it under the %EASYPHP_HOME%/apache/conf path, where %EASYPHP_HOME% is the home directory of your EasyPHP installation). Open the file with a text editor and look up the following string: Alias /home/mysql

You should find something similar to the following line:

Alias /home/mysql “C:/Program Files/EasyPHP 3.0/phpmyadmin”

Just add, to the next line, the following string:

Alias /mysql “C:/Program Files/EasyPHP 3.0/phpmyadmin”

Restart EasyPHP. Now try to open http://127.0.0.1/mysql/. It should work.
