It is separate? I haven't seen a separate search and address bar in about 5 years. Or at least, the address bar will always run a search if you don't enter a real URL.
How does one get back the separate functions?
- rvern 10y agoIt is separate. You can disable searches for the Awesome Bar by setting keyword.enabled to false on about:config.
- bzbarsky 10y agoThe address bar in Firefox will run a search if you enter something that doesn't look like a URL. But it won't send whatever you're typing to the search engine looking for search suggestions, for example. You need to use the search field to get search suggestions. In contrast, in Chrome, you can either have search suggestions and your search engine seeing every URL you type, or no search suggestions at all, depending on how you set your prefs.
