Undo Closed Tabs Button v3.6.2 - Works with Firefox 3.6a1pre through 3.7a1pre

Tired of going to History->Recently Closed Tabs just to undo a closed tab? Then this extension is for you! This extension allows you to undo closed tabs via a toolbar button and/or tab bar button. Click the image one time to undo the last closed tab...three times to open the last three closed tabs and so on. Click the drop down arrow to see the list of last previously closed tabs and select which one you would like to undo.

You can also undo closed tabs through the right-click context menu entry.

There is a options menu (Tools->Addons->Extensions), here you can edit the amount of closed tabs to remember, hide the history menu from the toolbar button, remove the right-click context menu entry or remove the tab bar button.

Important: You must add the button to the navigation toolbar by going to View->Toolbars->Customize, then drag and drop the button anywhere on the toolbar. The tab bar button is shown by default.

  • Hovering over a closed item now shows the URL in the status bar

Undo Closed Tabs Button v1.0.0 - Works with Firefox 2.0b1, branch and trunk nightlies.

You have to copy and paste the download link (Damn, I thought the server had the user defined mime type for xpi installs)

Not sure what you mean about that last bit. I clicked the link and the install extension windows came right up.

I'm thinking of adding a preference that limits or expands the capacity in the history list in which number of tabs you can undo. So you can set it to show only the last tab closed or up to whatever number...Good idea?

EDIT: Firefox default is 10 just to let you guys know.

I think the pref for limits is a good idea. Memory is never a problem for me, but for ones that do get anal about their memory usage this could help them control it. But doesn't Fx have an over all pref for this?? would it be different from that one? Or would this be an easy way (options panel) to set that prefs?

Thanks for your efforts!

Fx does have one, i'm going to piggyback on that one..just an easier way then going to about:config and searching for the pref.

---

Should be getting new icons soon, i went with the first icons submitted to me because I wanted to release this extension quick.

ext doesnt work with my 1.5.0.6 version ''/

In the nightly versions there is a new tab restore feature that this extension is made for, so it's not going to work with early version because this feature isn't in those versions. but 2.0 beta 2 is coming soon.

Version 1.9.0 released!

Changelog

  • Added options so you can remove the history drop down list and change the number of closed tabs that Firefox remembers
  • New Icons!!!
  • Code cleanup
  • Added partial locales (Option window not localized yet): zh-TW, hr-HR, nl-NL, fr-FR, it-IT, pl-PL, pt-BR, ru-RU, and es-ES

Yeah, it's a huge improvement and fits in with the new icons/theme.

----

Next release will incorporate a on right-click command that will bring up the history list...this is so that if you have the option set to hide the history drop down arrow, you can still get the list by right clicking :)

Alrighty, next release so far will include: Right-click activates the history list when the drop down arrow is present and when the pref is set to hide the drop down arrow. Also you can now clear the close tab history.

Is there anything that you guys can think of that I should include?

This is only a thought as I have no idea how hard/possible this would be. Would it be possible to replace the tab icon on the far right (located in the tab bar) with yours instead? With your extensions that one is useless. IMHO or can it at least be hidden? Maybe some css or something. I use Stylish if that helps.

IceDogg: You know that button is there for tab overflow and not undoing closed tabs, correct? It shows all tabs that are open so you don't have to scroll if you have like 20 tabs open. But anyways here ya go

tabbrowser .tabs-alltabs-button { display: none !important; }

just put that in you userChrome.css file

It is possible but very hard (for me at least) to code. I will attempt to do this in the feature after I look at how the all tabs button is placed there.

EDIT: Actually after thinking about it, I won't. Any button on that toolbar is either there or it's not. Its not customizable.

    • When will the Photos app be updated to remember the window size and position when reopened? They addressed this issue in a 2024 version of the app (though I can't recall the build number). Unfortunately, after that specific version, the problem persists! Please prioritise this fix in your K2 schedule. Additionally, the Snipping Tool has lost the ability to capture the Windows Taskbar starting from the 2024 version!
    • Same, never saw it on Android or iOS. Guess only some people got it *shrugs*
    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.
