    Mozilla Firefox Tabs

    I know i could do this in Windows (ugh) bu the keycommands are different in linux.
    to move from one tab to another was CTRL + TAB in Windows, but that doesn't work in linux. Not sure if it's possible or not, but I know I haven't found it yet

    Would like to know if it is possible, tabbed browsing is my life, and i don't like to use the mouse when not necessary

    Thanks!

    From the Firefox Help:

    Keyboard Shortcuts

    While it's easy to select tabs with a mouse, you can also cycle through tabs using the keyboard: use Ctrl+PageUp (or Ctrl+Tab) and Ctrl+PageDown (or Ctrl+Shift+Tab). You can also select the first tab by pressing CtrlCmdAltOpt+1, and so on up to the 9th tab with CtrlCmdAltOpt+9.
    So basically:

    Ctrl-PageUp or Ctrl-PageDown to cycle

    OR

    Ctrl-Alt-# to go directly to that tab

    It should be Ctrl + Page Up/Down to shift through the tabs.

    Hope this helps.
