create non-sidebar bookmarks in Firefox?

Hello,

is there a way to create regular non-sidebar bookmarks in Firefox with
javascript?
If not, why?
Is there a workaround - maybe with a plugin?

Thanks

Meikel

We can't refer users to CRTL-D since we prepare bookmark urls with
javascript (eliminating parameters like jsessionid and adding others).

what is a "sidebar" bookmark ?
(I have no sidebar in *my* Firefox, it is an user's choice, no?)
a contrario : what is a non-sidebar bookmark ?
If not, why?
Probably because you can't modify an opened window ?
(even by window.resizeTo as user can disable this option)
Probably because you can't interact on a soft's menus ?

And what about my Personal bookmarks bar ?

I do not understand webmasters who want organize user's preferences.

Several questions spring to mind:

1. Why not use standard bookmarks (in the "Bookmarks" menu)?
2. The whole sidebar thing is purely personal choice, surely?
3. Why do you particularly want to use Javascript for it?
4. What makes you think "non-sidebar" bookmarks are "regular"?

Frankly, I'm just puzzled by your question.

It's a datawarehouse web application.
The current url might contain parameters that should not become part
of the bookmark url (jsessionid).
Moreover, we have a dojo dialog in which users can select which
additional parameters should become part of the url, so easiest way is
to create the url with javascript.

Users classically expect bookmarks to open in the current page or tab.
Opening our pages in sidebar makes no sense in layout.

SQL Server 7/2000: We have reasonably large tables (3,000,000 rows) that we need to add some indexes for. In a test, it took over 12 hours to CREATE a new INDEX against this table. One of us suggested that we create a temp table with the new index and copy the data from the old table into the new one, then rename it. I understand this took 15 minutes. Why the heck would it be faster to move the data and build multiple indexes...

I'd like to use DDL (Data Definition Language) rather than VBA code to create a new table. The below DDL statement creates the table very nicely: CREATE TABLE tblTx03 (Subject Text (100), Entity_ID Long, TxDate Date, Tx_ID AutoIncrement Constraint PrimaryKey PRIMARY KEY); The problem is I want a non-unique index on TxDate - can this be done in the same statement? Or do I need to run a separate statement to add the non-unique index?

Hi, First of all, I'm a beginner with Unix. I have a "make" (Unix command) problem with a Pro*C sub-program since I installed Oracle8i (before I was at 7.3.4).

So, I receive this error: make: 1254-002 Cannot find a rule to create target /u02/apps_r/dev/ben/lib/fcfz02.a from dependencies.

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
