Don't edit prefs.js ...
Authored by: poultryfarm on Nov 07, '02 03:31:54PM
what are these 3 preferences, what do they do?
why do some have have 'user_pref' and others just 'pref'.

user_pref("image.animation_mode", "once");
pref("browser.chrome.site_icons", true);
pref("browser.chrome.favicons", true);


... so many questions sorry

I would assume that the first one determines the numbers of times animated images play.
The second one makes the favicon for sites show up in their tab and the address bar.
The third one makes the favicons show up on your bookmarks.

But Chimera shows favicons in the tabs and address bar by default, right? At least it does for me...
