where is the firefox home page stored at?

I don`t quite know what you mean,so I`ll give all possible answers :)


1.The settings to change the home page are in

Tools/Options/Main/..............whatever address you put

in that box will be your home page.


2.The page itself is stored on the server computer of

that same web site.


3.The actual place on the hard drive where preferences are stored is -

C:\Documents and Settings\[User Name]\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\prefs.js


4.The Mozilla Foundation (Firefox) is based in California.

I want actual place on the hard drive where preferences are stored, the problem is i dont see the data in that file


are u sure that is the correct file and location

Yes.

Look for -

user_pref("browser.startup.homepage", "This is your homepage");

go to tools/options/ general settings
set your home page here

should be a little clearer in what your asking for

Yes.

Look for -

user_pref("browser.startup.homepage", "This is your homepage");


its not there, my complete file is here

# Mozilla User Preferences

/* Do not edit this file.

*/

user_pref("browser.startup.homepage",...........); IS in your prefs file.

about:config is a means by which you can edit your prefs file.

As mentioned earlier you can also edit the homepage preference by Tools/Options/Main

Your question was "Where is it the homepage stored"

It`s "stored" in your prefs file.

i do not see it in my prefs file, i posted the complete prefes file in the prev message and my homepage isnt in it.

Maybe we have a diffrent version of Firefox. I have version 1.5.0.11 what version do u have

I`m using the latest version 2.0.0.3 (http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/) You should be using the latest version too.

A lot of security holes and bugs have been fixed since 1.5.0.11

Maybe they added a full version of the prefs file since 1.5.
