User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (OS/2; U; Warp 4.5; en-US; rv:1.3) Gecko/20030313 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (OS/2; U; Warp 4.5; en-US; rv:1.3) Gecko/20030313 There was a design decision to force users to use triple click to select all in the URL bar if they choose not to use click select all. This is cumbersome in a normal windows environment as select all is more used than select word. But even worse is I am using blackbox as my shell and it filters out the triple click which prevents me from even selecting the whole url without using drag select which is very cumbersome for really long urls. This should have a pref that sets that allows triple click to select the last word where double click selects all. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Click on url bar 2. Double click on url bar. 3. Triple click on url bar. Actual Results: Click should put cursor at end of line. Double click highlights last word. Triple click does nothing under blackbox, highlights entire line under explorer. Expected Results: Click should put cursor at end of line. Double click should highlight entire line. Triple click should hightlight last word.

user_pref("layout.word_select.stop_at_punctuation", false); will do what you want.

That preference is currently broken when used in user.js or prefs.js. You *can* use it in all.js, but if you upgrade to the latest nightlies all the time, that's not a feasible workaround (since you'd have to be constantly editing the file). This is really a dupe of bug 188567. (Well, not *technically* but since really requesting a preference for this would only generate a WONTFIX result, it's the best solution to the reporter's problem.) Note: You can now also single click on the proxy icon to the left of the URL text.
