The Firefox address bar displays the URL (web address) for the page that you are visiting. When you type into this field to enter a URL or search term, Firefox remembers the pages that you have visited and shows page suggestions in the address bar drop-down, such as sites you've bookmarked, tagged, visited before, or have open in tabs. This article explains how the address bar autocomplete feature works.
Note: To learn more about searching from the address bar, see these articles:

- 1How do I use the autocomplete list?
- 2How can I control what results the address bar shows me?
The autocomplete drop-down when you type into the address bar will include:
- Page titles and web addresses from your history.
- Page titles, web addresses and tags from your bookmarks.
- Pages you currently have open in other tabs (see below under Switch to tab).
- Sync'ed tabs from other devices.
- Search terms from your Search history (if search suggestions are enabled)
Icons will indicate whether a matching result is an open tab or a bookmark. When you see the page you want, just click on it or use the up and down arrows on your keyboard to highlight it and then press EnterReturn.
Firefox will also suggest popular search suggestions from the default search engine. See Search suggestions in Firefox for more information.
The address bar suggestions adjust based on your browsing behavior, such as how frequently and recently you visited a web page and what result you chose based on what was typed. This way pages you visit all the time will show up at the top of the list, often after typing only one character.
URL autocomplete
In addition to the autocomplete drop-down list, Firefox will also complete the URL in the address bar. For example, if you type 'suppo', Firefox may fill in 'rt.mozilla.org/' to complete the address 'support.mozilla.org' if you've visited that site before. Pressing EnterReturn in this case would take you directly to that address.
Switch to tab
The address bar also searches through your open tabs, displaying results with a tab icon and the text 'Switch to tab'. Selecting these results will switch you to the already open tab instead of creating a duplicate.
What can I do to get the best results?
- When you want to go to a web page you've visited before, type a few letters from its web address or page title. Scroll through the autocomplete entries and find the page in the list (type in another letter if you don't see it listed). Press EnterReturn to go to the selected web address. Firefox will give this entry/result combination higher weight in the future.
- Do not clear the browsing history - usually the richest source of autocomplete entries is from the title/web address combination. Clearing browsing history will remove these entries from the results.
- Bookmark and tag frequently used pages. The address bar will match on the name you give the bookmark and also tags associated with the bookmark. See the Bookmarks in Firefox article for more information on how to use bookmarks in Firefox. You can improve your autocomplete results by tagging pages with easily-typed tag names.

Changing results on the fly
By default, when you type search terms in the address bar, the list under it shows search suggestions from the default search engine, and pages (bookmarks, history, open tabs) where every search term is part of the title, part of a tag or part of the web address (URL).

If you are looking for a specific type of result, like a bookmark or open tab, you can speed up the process of finding it by typing in special characters in the address bar separated by spaces:
- Add ^ to show only matches in your browsing history.
- Add * to show only matches in your bookmarks.
- Add + to show only matches in bookmarks you've tagged.
- Add % to show only matches in your currently open tabs.
- Add # to show only matches where every search term is part of the title or part of a tag.
- Add $ to show only matches where every search term is part of the web address (URL). The text 'https://' or 'http://' in the URL is ignored but not 'file:///'.
- Add ? to show only search suggestions.
For example, if you're looking for a page you bookmarked called Mozilla Firefox Support, you might type mozilla. The autocomplete results appear, but might not show the page you want. Caesar's english ii.
The address bar suggestions adjust based on your browsing behavior, such as how frequently and recently you visited a web page and what result you chose based on what was typed. This way pages you visit all the time will show up at the top of the list, often after typing only one character.
