How do I open new tabs at the end of the tab bar?

Recently switched over from Internet Explorer. One of things I liked about IE was if I adjusted some of the tabbed browsing settings, whenever I opened a link in a new tab, it opened it at the very end of the tab bar. No tab grouping, no opening next to the current tab. Seems like a pretty simple thing, but I just can't figure out how to set that up in Firefox.
Any suggestions on how to take care of that? Thanks!

You can set the pref browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent to false on the about:config page.
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page. 
*Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
*Preferences that have been modified show as bold (user set).
*Preferences can be reset to the default via the right-click context menu if they are user set
*Preferences can be changed via the right-click context menu: Modify (String or Integer) or Toggle (Boolean)

Firefox 8 puts new tabs opened from links in another tab at the end of the tab list, NOT next to the tab it came from like in V3.6. I want it next to the tab it came from. How do I get it to do this?

Question as stated, sums it up. When I click the mousewheel on a link in a tab I want a new tab open with that link and I want it next to the tab I clicked the link in just like Firefox V3.6 did. Firefox 8 is always opening the new tab at the end of the list and boy is this annoying!
Please tell me how to fix this.

type in the address bar '''about:config'''
then press the button '''i'l be careful i promise'''
then type in the bar '''browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent'''
then '''Right-click''' click on it, and select '''Toggle''', and you see changing the value from True to '''False'''.
exit firefox and restart.
thank you

How do I get new tabs to open at the end of the tab bar rather than next to the tab i am working on?

Im running firefox 3.6.12 on a pretty dated computer. Im using Windows XP Home Edition SP3
On previous FireFox editions, opening new tabs from pages Im working on, used to appear at the end of the list of tabs. Now when I open it, it appears right next to me.
Is there a way of altering this setting? I often open multiple tabs from the same page by clicking a link with the mouse wheel and I like to work through them in the order I clicked them. This is usualy for comparing things like holidays, car insurance etc
thankyou

I want my new tabs to open at the end of the row of tabs, how do I do that?

When I open a new tab, I would like it to open at the end of the row of tabs, not next to the tab I'm on now. I'm used to it opening on the end like it did in older versions of Firefox. I'm sure this is an easy fix but I can't find anything in options and I'm getting frustrated.
Thanks!

How do I make the "Open new tab" button positioned at the end of the tab strip, on the right, next to the last open tab, just as the standard Firefox should be.

My "Open a new tab" button (the +) does not appear at the end of the tab strip, it does not look like it is given in all photos here in the support page. It did not look like this before either. Now I have it at the most left end i.e. before the tabs begin. I can move it to the most right, but it sticks there. I want it to be attached to the last open tab, as it used to be, and as is shown in example Firefox photos.
Could be useful if I sent you a print screen, but I don't see an attachment option here.
Thanks!

When i open a new tab i want the cursor to be at the beginning of the url (it was until this latest update, now the cursor is at the end of the url)

I have just taken the latest update to 22.0 from the last version.
In the past when i opened up a new tab the cursor would jump to the beginning of the URL and i could start typing. Now the cursor goes to the back of the URL and i have to double click the URL to type in a new one.
Let me try to be as clear as i can. I have had firebox set for long time so when i open a new tab google.com comes up, and google is also my home page.
I have not installed any options for a long time either. And nothing that has to do with tabs.
What i remember is as i opened a new tab the URL of it would turn blue and i could start typing in a new URL. Now when i open a new tab i see google.com come up in blue, then the url turns to https://www.google.com/ and the blue goes away and the cursor is at the end of the URL. I now have to double click the URL to type.

I switched to the "about blank" and then use my home icon to get to Google.com
It is not quit as good as it was but usable.
I think you should add two new check boxes in options under "tabs"
1 - When opening any new tab, put the focus of the cursor on the URL.
2 - When opening any new tab, put the focus of the cursor on the search box.
This will take care of the majority of people.

The + sign at the end of the tabs no longer takes me to the last current tabs or websites it instead takes me to google search. How do i get it back to my last tab for the website I visited?

I used to get the last websites or my frequent websites I visited when I clicked on the + sign at the end of the tab bar.. Now all I get is a google search page.. How do i get it back to the other way it was?

A new tab opens by default as a blank tab (about:blank).
If that isn't the case then an extension has changed that behavior.

The current version of Firefox moves the tabs. Now the focus moves off the end of the row. I think this runs counter to the point of having tabs, if you can only see one at a time. How do I fix this

The tabs bar on 3.6 Firefox now focuses on the last tab in the row. This means that I can only effectively see one tab, unless I use the arrow button to scroll back through all the tabs. I am used to scrolling some, when there are a dozen tabs open, but How do I make the tab bar static, they way it used to be, so it stands still when I click on the last tab in the row.??

Thanks for taking a stab at it: that didn't prove to be the problem. That option in the settings for tabbed browsing was not checked.
I may be a bit behind the times: I am used to tabbed browsing showing all the tabs it possibly can, instead of just the last one. Sometimes it won't even show the last tab: I can have 15 tabs open, and not see a single tab. I've been confused by this into closing a window with lots of tabs open, because it looks like a single page-window.
My main problem with the tab-bar flashing to the end of the row is that it means a great deal more mouse-clicking around to browse.
I haven't tried installing the latest beta. Maybe that would fix the problem.

how to create a new tag in page properties in the sidekick of geometrrix pagesame as basic, advanced, blue print??

Hi prachi,
Is it tag OR Tab ? Seems like you are looking for Tab. Look at [1] & overlay to custamize per your need. Or define at your page component.

How do I force Pages to open a document at the END of the document?

I have a document -- my personal diary -- in which I write almost every day. Every time I open it, it opens about 3/4 of the way into the document, then I have to go to the end of the document to write more. Is there any way to change this weird behavior so the document opens to the end?
I searched discussions and there is an archived discussion of this issue from 2008 where someone points out that if you manually go back to page 1 in the document, then use the Save command, the document will open to page 1 when next opened. However, I can't find any method to have the document open to the end, which seems like it should be an obvious option. I just find it strange that the document does not re-open to the last saved position, especially text documents.
Any workaround?
Thanks in advance.

Well, that was my problem. I was opening an "old" Pages document (updated to 09 of course, but originally it was an 06 document). I would write some additional material at the end and save. But next time I opened the doc it would open to a spot about 3/4 of the way through, not at the end. As I mentioned, I found another discussion in here from a few years back started by someone with the same problem.
Cutting and pasting is really pretty simple (actually I should say copying and pasting in this case): Open old doc, select all, copy, open new doc, paste, save with new name. That worked and now the new document opens to the end. Much more convenient.

How do I duplicate layers & groups without automatically adding a "copy", "copy 1", "copy #" at the end of the new group?

How do I duplicate layers & groups without automatically adding a "copy", "copy 1", "copy #" at the end of the new group?
It's been pestering me for quite a while now, since I often work with the same elements over and over again. Its frustrating to have to change the name of each layer manually, especially if I'm copying a whole group.
Is there a setting in Photoshop or perhaps an external script that can help fix this for me?
Cheers,
Qiming

There is no way to defeat this within the program itself. Here's the workaround:
Duplicate the file (from the Image menu).
Drag the Group or layers from the Layers list from the duplicate to the image window of the original , while holding down Shift.
That will make a "copyless" copy and reposition the copyed material in the exact same position it was on the original.
