SQL Reporting Services 2005 - Printing in FireFox - firefox

Printing button is not shown in the report toolbar when they are opened in FireFox.
Is there any solution for print button not showing in FireFox ?
Can it be enabled or there is no workaround for this?

I think your only option here is to export to pdf or another format and then print.
The print button on the toolbar is an activex control, which is not and probably will not be supported in firefox.

File selection dialog popup underlays behind chrome extension popup window

In my browser extension, I am trying to upload a file from my computer. When I click on "select a file" option inside my browser (), the file selection dialog box underlays behind the popup window.
This appears only when the browser is in full screen mode and on MAC OS. Once I switch the tab or remove full screen mode it overlays as expected.
Can someone please provide a solution or workaround to this issue?
I encountered the same issue recently with a Chrome extension. How did the issue appear? I don't think I've changed anything, it seems to have appeared out of nowhere.
If you have any insights, I'm interested in collaborating with you to debug the issue with my own extension. Let me know!

How to take Screenshot of Website with Vimperator

I use vim and Firefox + Vimperator, now I want to be able to create page screenshots with Vimperator by a single Vimperator command to create a thumbnail of websites later.
Vimperator seems to not have a screenshot functionality. I know you can do it through the debugger or the developer Toolbar using Shift+F2 to open it and then screenshot --fullpage and I even can open the Toolbar using Vimperator, but I didn't manage to input something there.
I tried with the sequence <S-F2><CR>screenshot, but after the Toolbar loads, Vimperator already ran all following commands (screenshot) as a sequence in normal mode.
How can I achieve taking website screenshots using a single Vimperator command?
Update:
I experimented a bit more and almost achieved a workaround using this sequence:
<S-F2>:js liberator.sleep(300)<CR><S-F2>screenshot --fullpage<CR> where
<S-F2> opens the Developer Toolbar
:js liberator.sleep(300)<CR> take a break to let firefox load the toolbar (could probably be lower than 300ms)
<S-F2> to again gain focus of the toolbar
screenshot --fullpage just input in the toolbar
The problem that occurs now is that I can not 'enter' with <CR> as the toolbar does not recognize any input. Only if I manually enter a whitespace it realizes the screenshot input and lets me 'send' the command.
Of course I am also open to other workarounds not using the Developer Toolbar.

How can I open the web console and the debugger at the same time in Firefox?

I would like to be able to see the console and the debugger tabs of Firefox's developer tools at the same time. They should both be relating to the same page. How can I do this?
Firefox 28, released 18th of March 2014, has this feature:
To enable it, just open the debugger and click the "Toggle split console" button. It's in the top bar of the dev tools, on the right-hand side.
Also now possible to open the Console from any panel in the Developer Tools with the ESCape key.
By clicking on the three dots, top right in the dev tools, you can hide and show split console at the same time as the inspector etc. Also, suggests that robcee's answer still applies. Still valid in Firefox 2022 #mseifert

Crystal Reports Print issue in Firefox and Chrome

I have a crystal report,print Mode is set to ActiveX. When clicking on the Print button in crystal reports viewer using IE , the printer dialog appears properly. When using Firefox or Chrome it asking me to print to pdf. Is there any way to open the printer dialog with firefox and chrome?
Chrome removed the ability to disable print preview, but on Windows you can still disable it if you modify the application shortcut:
add --disable-print-preview to the end of the "Destination", so it read something like:
"C:\Users\MyUser\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe"
-- disable-print-preview
This will make CTRL+P default to the regular OS-specific print dialog. Ctrl+shift+P also works, for those who can remember the hotkey every time.

The print button doesn't appear in firefox

Q:
Why the print button doesn't appear in report viewer in the case of browsing through the Firefox ?
How to show this button in this browser to print my report?
This is because the print button is an Active-X control and Active-X controls work only with Internet explorer
For the rest of browsers export to pdf or excel and print from the application
In case the entire report renders in one page, you can use the browser print button to print the report
