How to send current page in Google Chrome to Firefox? - google-chrome

In Firefox I use a add-on called "Open With" which adds Chrome and Safari icons in Firefox's toolbar. If I want to open the current webpage in Firefox in one of these browsers, I just click that button and the page opens in the chosen browser in a new tab.
I would like similar functionality but in Google Chrome, to be able to send current page to other browsers, mainly to Firefox.
Does anyone know a way or a extension?

In the URL box in Chrome on the left is an icon, sheet of paper. Drag the icon to the firefox window and drop it.
The reverse also works.
If the firefox window is hidden or underneath Chrome then drag the icon to the Taskbar and over the Firefox icon, hold it for a split second and the Firefox window will be brought to the front. Then drop the icon into Firefox.
No extension that I've found yet.

Your screenshots are from different browser dev tools. If m not wrong, the top one is on Firefox where the bottom one is Chrome.

Can't open new tabs or windows beyond the first on IE, Edge, Safari

I'm currently having an issue where I have three major links on this landing / splash page (http://dairyberries.com/) where it's supposed to link out to a new browser tab or window when you click on any of the three main links under the logo. I've used target="_blank" and target="_new" and in both cases on Internet Explorer, Microsoft Edge and Safari, they open the first window but any additional clicks only loads the new site in the same browser window instead of opening yet another new window or tab.
What should happen, and seems to in both Chrome and Firefox, is that if I clicked on all three links, I should see three new browser windows. Not one.
Is there a way around this? Or just a FOL because of browser behavior?
target="_new" is not an actual keyword for the target attribute in HTML5. All you are doing is telling the browser to open a new window. If you did target="_qwerty" you would get the same result.
When you click on one of these links the browser opens a window that it names "new". Therefore when you click on the next link with target="new" it opens it on the same "new" tab.
Applying target="_blank" to the link will provide the behavior you are looking for. I just tested it on your site in Microsoft Edge and it seems to be working fine.
Here is a good answer explaining the issue with target="_new" and why it isn't consistent between browsers:
target="_blank" vs. target="_new"

Website not displayed properly in Safari

My website www.dshinestudio.com is not displaying properly in Safari, but it is displayed correctly in Chrome, Firefox, Opera and other browsers.
Why isn't Safari displaying my website properly?
Do I need to add anything in my code?
Some Safari extensions that block ads or other website content can prevent some page elements from displaying. You can temporarily turn off extensions, then re-load the page to see if this is the issue.
Choose Safari > Preferences.
Click Extensions.
Select an extension, then deselect the checkbox "Enableā€¦ extension." Repeat this step for every extension that's currently installed.
Reload the page by choosing Choose View > Reload in Safari. If the webpage loads correctly, one or more extensions was blocking the content from loading. Re-enable an extensi

How to remove extensions icons from Chrome toolbar and menu

As we know in the past only extension that has "browser_action:default_icon" in its manifest file was displayed on the Chrome toolbar. But recently, Google Chrome displays icons of all the extensions on its toolbar even if I install old version of the browser. How to disable this feature even removing it from the Chrome source code? (I mean from chrome.dll, resources.pak or another file). I don't mean how to hide the icons by moving them from the toolbar to the Chrome menu. I mean how to remove this feature at all or at least hide unwanted icons both on the toolbar and the menu?

Can I do a swipe (left or right) in Chrome (PC) with a mouse?

I'm building out my jquery mobile app out and have been testing in Chrome. Its the best for me because the debugging is great.
I was using a TAPHOLD event but decided to go away from that for a swipe-right event.
Chrome actually registered the taphold, so I was hopeful that it would register a swipe right with the mouse. But I cannot get it to register unless I have to do something else... anyone?
By now the actual chrome developer tools (tried chrome 20) can emulate touch and swipe events.
You can activate that behavior through the tool options, accessible via the little gear-wheel in the bottom corner.
Just check "Emulate touch events" from the options. Then you can also swipe with your mouse.
In desktop browsers I tend to use the right mouse button testing swipes. It will open a context-menu but it actually works (I normally use Chrome 17 and Firefox 10).
For instance when left-clicking and then swiping on an image in Chrome or Firefox it selects the image and you are then moving around the transparent thumbnail of the image. But when right-clicking and swiping the swipe event is fired.
UPDATE
This update is pretty late to the punch but this just shouldn't be necessary anymore. In fact the Chrome developer tools (the ones I'm used to using) have gotten a lot better about emulating devices.
A lot of the answers here are old and out of date. As of Chrome 63, swipe is built-in as long as you are in responsive mode with developer tools open. So open Developer Tools (3 dots->tools->developer tools), then click the phone/tablet icon on the left to put Chrome into a mobile mode. Then if you left click and hold, you will see the cursor changed to a dot, and you can swipe.
Update: this appears to be enabled in Chrome by default (37.0.2062.120 as of September 2014) you do the following:
Open Developer Tools
Click the little phone icon next to the search icon in the upper left (next to the Elements tab)
In the Emulation tab on the bottom choose a device model from the drop down
Previous answer:
To get this working in the current version of Chrome (32.0.1700.107 as of Feb 2014) you do the following:
Open Developer Tools
Click the gear icon in the upper right
Select the Overrides tab on the left
Click on Show 'Emulation' view in console drawer
Close the Settings popup
Open the Console (button to the left of the gear)
Click the Emulation tab in the console (next to Console and Search)
Choose a device and click on Emulate (and click Reset to cancel emulation)
