Reactivating it

To turn it back on, use:

user_pref ("accessibility.typeaheadfind", true);

Now where in FF shud i type this ?

Plz help !

type this in address bar:

about:config --> then search for accessibility.typeaheadfind, if present set the value to true

else create it by right clicking anywhere and then select new-->boolean and then type accessibility.typeaheadfind and set its value to true and then u r done.

PS: the value was already present in my FF
