Is there a source to explain the meanings of entries in the prefs.js file?

I am setting up Wyse Thin Clients for a project for my company. The Thin Client is set up in kiosk mode and defaults to a default web site. When the Thin Client is not used for a period of time it goes to sleep. When it wakes up, it is losing its web site setting and loading the incorrect page. I have made changes to the privacy settings and saved them. These thin clients load the prefs.js file from a ftp server when they are booted up. I have a copy of the file that I send to the clients and one that ended up on the client. I need to know what each entry in the prefs.js file actually means to see if there is an invalid entry. I ahve searched the internet and can't find a reference that details these entries.

hello tim, this is probably a good starting point. http://kb.mozillazine.org/About:config_entries

Note that the prefs.js file only stores prefs that have been modified and do not have the default value.

If you want to initialize prefs then you can use a user.js file in the Firefox profile folder or a mozilla.cfg file in the Firefox program folder

See:

Place a file local-settings.js in the defaults\pref folder where you also find the file channel-prefs.js to specify using mozilla.cfg.

pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0); // use this to disable the byte-shift

These functions can be used in the mozilla.cfg file:

defaultPref();  // set new default value
pref();         // set pref, but allow changes in current session
lockPref();     // lock pref, disallow changes
