    Question about Firefox

    One of the features I miss about IE is the ability to hit CTRL+N and open a new Explorer window, that was a duplicate of the window I was currently in, no matter what the site. When I do it in Firefox, it opens a new window, but when it does, it's another window to my homepage. Is there any way to change this? It was very useful especially on forums, when I wanted to for instance edit a post, and copy and past multiple things from another thread or something.

    Try using Ctrl+T to open a new tab. Tabbed browsing is the shit.

        That just opens a blank window.

          sometime i will write up a guide for all the usefull stuff i have found.

          Down load mouse guesters, look at the guide to see all the crazy shit you can do. Use the scroll button to open links in a new tab. press and hold the right mouse button then press the left one to go back

          go to a forum. Use the scroll button to click all the forums you want to go to. then they will all be opened in tabs

            Tabbed browsing is an addon, install it.

              Hey Josh try the extension called "Session Saver" there may be a setting to do it in that one. It is supposed to make it so that any time you open firefox or a window it restores the last page you were looking at scrolling position and all.

                I already have it, and it works. But like I said, it opens a new window, but it's just blank and says "untitled".
