View Browser History

Post by BobH »

Is there a way to view browser history showing urls?

I subscribed to a really great forum the other day. I usually create a new entry in my passwords database which includes the forum name and url. Apparently, I failed to do so this one time and now I can't remember the name of the forum and searches aren't turning it up. I was hoping that my browser history might give me a clue. I haven't run CCleaner or anything else that would have removed them unless Fx 7.0.1 is cleaning up after itself.

No! I haven't found all the Easter Eggs I hid for myself last Spring either.

In my Firefox, if you open History and hover over an item, the URL shows up.

The screenshots below are from Firefox 7.0.1.

From the Firefox button:

And if you display the menu:

And, as you see, the keyboard shortcut for History is Ctrl+Shift+H.
You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.
Best wishes,
