Shortcut for switching tabs?

[CyberPitz]

Just wondering, is there a way to switch tabs in FireFox with a keystroke? I've kind of looked, but couldn't find anything.

Ctrl+Tab

Ctrl+Shift+Tab to go backwards Its a bit awkward to do though. Alternately, CTRL+PGUP/PGDN. Also, CTRL+[1-9] works too.

Also, check out Mouse Gestures: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/39/

Can do ALL SORTS of crazy stuff with that

Yeah its a bit tricky, takes some playing with to figure it out. I found the actual gestures to be really sensitive, you might want to play around with the settings, or just pick a handful of really simple ones to do what you want. For example, I set next/previous tab to holding down CTRL and right-click dragging the mouse to the right/left (which overwrote the default for forward/back).

Yeah, I can't even figure out how to dedicate a gesture. It's really confusing

Okay:
1, In the config window for the Mouse Gestures add-on, check the box for "Control" under "Mouse mouse gesture with".
2. Click the "Edit Gestures" button.
3. In the list, find the gesture "L" for "Back".
4. Click the "Edit" button.
5. Under "Function Type", find "mgB_PreviousTab" for "Previous Tab", select it and click "OK".
6. Back in the "Edit Gestures" window, find the gesture "R" for "Forward"
7. Click the "Edit" button.
8. Under "Function Type", find "mgB_NextTab" for "Next Tab", select it and click "OK".
9. Click "OK" in the "Edit Gestures" window.
10. (Optional) Click the "Visual Settings" tab.
11. Check "Activate mouse trails". This will make you draw red lines when you're doing gestures. It looks like MSPAINT, and it goes away after the gesture is done.

You should now be able to scroll tabs by holding down CTRL and right-click dragging the mouse to the right or left.
