Without Mouse how to use Firefox
0Navigation from the toolbar
- Select location bar: Ctrl/Cmd+L or Alt+D

Opening pages
Unless you do all of your browsing in one page, these shortcuts are huge when you don't want to go running for your mouse.
- Open link in new window: Shift+Enter
- Open link in new tab: Ctrl/Cmd+Enter
- Open address/search in new tab: Alt/Option+Enter
Used together with their respective shortcuts (address and search bar shortcuts and the find-as-you-type link shortcut), the page opening shortcuts go a long way toward mouse-less browsing.
