Is it possible to make a list of opened tabs?
The case is:
I click on a button
It generates the link and opens it in a new tab
I have to navigate to this page and do some verifications
In case that Cypress does not support multi-tabs. It would be good to have a list of the opened tabs. So I can navigate to them.
According to the official documentation, Cypress'll never have multi-tabs support. What you could do, however, for your test case is:
Check the links open in new tabs like so: cy.get('a[href="/index"]').should('have.attr', 'target', '_blank').
Visit the href like so: cy.visit('/index.html').
Assert the visited page's content.
If you need inspiration, you could use this recipe for handling tabs & links.

Is there a way to keep Firebug on a single page, so that when I switch pages it remains on the page I want it set to?
For example, I'm working on a project and I get an error that I want to search for on Stack Overflow, but when I navigate here, the console changes to reflect this site. I'd like to stop that from happening.
There is no option to "pin" a page's data in Firebug (as of version 2.x). As far as I know this also doesn't work in any of the browser built-in dev tools.
Though the simple solution for your problem is to open the other page in a separate tab or window. Doing so keeps all the data of the page saved when you switch back to the tab containing your project's page.
Note that Firebug's activation model is based on URLs following the same origin policy. I.e. if you open it for your project's page, it will always get opened for your projects page, even on other tabs, but not for any other site.
I've found it useful to split the tab of interest off into a new window and to activate Firebug on that window. That way I can continue using my original tab collection/window without it changing as I link-hop.
This is a real 2%er but here goes, I have created a winform in VS2010 with Gecko 2.0.1-0.10 (latest release) webbrowser control, I am using a touch screen to navigate. Sometimes when clicking a hyperlink it will select text rather than navigate, on the DomMouseUp event I want to check to see if there is selected text, if so I want to see if it is a hyperlink and if it is, where that hyperlink goes to. I had a mess around with GeckoSelection but nothing looked obvious. I am looking for a way to see if what is selected within the web browser is a hyperlink, any thoughts?
I've worked it out : for anyone interested in such things, use DomFocus on the gecko control:
m_strInnerHtml = geckSel.ActiveElement.Parent.InnerHtml.ToString();
That will give you the innerhtml of the selected item, from here you can extract the href tag and get the url, navigate to it, hey presto :)
Update: An even better solution is to use (in DomFocus again)
m_strInnerHtml = geckoWebBrowser.Document.ActiveElement.GetAttribute("href");
This will return the actual hyperlink address, one thing to watch out for however is if you're on google for example and select the "Advertising" hyperlink at the bottom of the page, it may return "/advertisingpage/" which must be appended to the original url. Clicking a hyperlink away from google will return the full address however.
Very good behavior gives this call:
m_strInnerHtml = geckoWebBrowser1.Url.AbsoluteUri()
I'm working on a site in Joomla! and on the homepage, at the top of the article, it comes up with a h1 of the website name. The pagesource says (Note it's not the article title.)
Any idea how to get rid of it?
Thanks,
Steph
You can set this h1 tag not to display via the Parameters - System section of your Menu Item Manager screen in administrator ... this page has a nice depiction of the steps.
It's so simple
Just do the following :
Login to the Joomla Administrator Interface
Go to the Menu Manager
Select your Menu
Select your Menu Item (Home Menu)
On the right hand, Click Parameters (System)—> and in the *Show Page Title—->*Just Select No.
That's all.
This is not the desired solution, since many people, (including myself) actually need to be able to Set/Override the page title (That Appears in the Browser’s Title bar), and setting Page Title to no here will also remove the functionality to Configure the Browser title (which is important for SEO among other things).
Anyway, I have searched and not been able to find a fully correct solution via CMS or PHP Code. The closest solution which is not fully perfect, but unlikely to cause significant (if any) negative effect on your site is through Javascript (Example is JQuery).
jQuery(document).ready( function($) {
$(‘.componentheading’).empty();
});
This can also be done is JS with no JQuery. When I find a better method of doing this I’ll let you know.This should actually be done by removing output from a template file.I don’t know which one yet. When I do, I’ll post it…
When setting the page title not to show in the menu item as stated in other answers, this will not stop the text entered in the page title box being used as the browser title, it will just stop it being shown in the page.
Using javascript to remove it is not a good idea.
1. It will only work for browsers with javascript enabled
2. Search engine spiders will still see it. As the component heading for articles is 'articles' by default it will see all your pages with the same h1 tag.
Just turn it off in the menu item and enter your browser title in the text box above.
I use Conkeror on a daily basis except at work where I need Firebug, since I'm a web developer. I really miss having the "follow link" ability in Conkeror but I don't want to resort to using Vimperator to get it.
Is there any Firefox extension which lets me follow links by hitting a key followed by the link text like in Conkeror?
There are many ways you can already use only the keyboard to browse with Firefox.
Searching pages
The find-as-you-type feature was an epiphany. While Google is great at getting you to the right web page, Firefox's find-as-you-type feature gets you the rest of the way.
Find as you type text: /
Find as you type link: '
Regular old find: Ctrl/Cmd+F
The link search is very useful, especially when used in conjunction with...
Opening pages
Unless you do all of your browsing in one page, these shortcuts are huge when you don't want to go running for your mouse.
Open link in new window: Shift+Enter
Open link in new tab: Ctrl/Cmd+Enter
Open address/search in new tab: Alt/Option+Enter
Used together with their respective shortcuts (address and search bar shortcuts and the find-as-you-type link shortcut), the page opening shortcuts go a long way toward mouse-less browsing.
Of course, you can also use the Mousless Browsing plugin.
Mouseless Browsing (MLB) enables you to browse the web entirely with the keyboard. The basic principle is to add small boxes with unique ids behind every link and/or form element. You just have to type in the id to trigger the corresponding action i.e. following a link, pressing a button or selecting a textfield...
There's Pentadactyl - and all firefox extensions work well with it.

Works even better with Linkification, I might add.
I've created a bookmark in Firefox that links to a hosted web application I've written and displays the application in the sidebar using the "Load this bookmark in the sidebar" option.
When the application appears in the sidebar and I click links there, those links open in the current Firefox tab rather than staying in the sidebar. I would like the linked page to appear in the sidebar.
I'm hoping there's a simple solution, like setting the default target via a base tag, but I can't find a reference that gives me the information I need. It would be useful if the solution does not limit the application to the sidebar exclusively, and still lets the application run full-window.
I think all you need to do is link, or add target="_self"
This may be more a potential workaround than a real answer, but you could try using javascript to change document.location to the new URL. Something like:
<a href="javascript:document.location='http://whatever'>click me</a>
This would use the same 'window' object to display the new page and should load in the sidebar.
