    Can you set link underlining to "hover"?
    All I can find is enable/disable.

    They seem to have dumbed-down the options in FireFox compared to Mozilla, yet I can't find this option :confused:

    You're really asking about 20 questions there. I've not looked into it, but you should be able to specify your own default, overriding stylesheet for all sites, which will allow you to makes all links do this.

    At the moment, the hover behaviour is controlled by the page you're looking at, not by Firefox.

    Hmm, yeah I suspect you could do it with a custom stylesheet alright, but I haven't looked into this either :p
    I wouldn't be thrilled about overriding a sites explicitly set style rules with my own, but where a custom hover isn't already defined, that'd be sweet... have it gracefully bow out to the sites own stylesheet.

    <McBain voice> On closer inpection... Mozilla seems to exhibit similar behaviour.
    Maybe I was thinking of the dreaded IE6... just a simple radio-button sets it to hover.

    Oh well, back to the drawing board :)

    Bleh, unless of course they've explicitly set hover behavior that I don't want (ala. boards.ie) :o

    Anyway, for those interested... you can set default element styles in
    :\Documents and Settings\<Windows username>\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<firefox user>\chrome\userContent.css

    It's working ok otherwise, I made a basic test.html with no styling info and the userContent.css kicks in nicely and adds the hover underline.

    <Monty Burns voice> Eeexcellent...

    Also AFAIK, you can get a nice plugin that lets you override styles on a per-site basis, but I couldn't be arsed.
