You can change a preference to make tabs open
# at the end of all open tabs
# immediately after the current tab.
See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/About:config
*Type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and press the Enter key.
*If you see the warning, accept it (promise to be careful).
*Filter = browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent
*Look at the "Value" column ('''false'''=open at end, '''true'''=open after current tab); Value = true is the default.
*Double-click that preference to toggle the value from true to false, or false to true
*Restart Firefox (File > Restart Firefox)

I'm unable to open a new tab on my window, what do I do?

I installed mozilla firefox 17.0.1 since then I'm unable to open a new tab when i click on the + icon on the right of the other tab.

You can also try to update to Firefox 18.
*Help > About Firefox

Another possible cause to consider is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

When I opened up a new tab, I used to get the Speed Dial page. I like that. However, since I updated my AVG anti-virus program, now when I open a new tab, I get the AVG search page. Can I change it back so that I get the Speed Dial?

In the past, when I opened up a new tab, I used to get the Speed Dial page. I like that. However, since I updated my AVG anti-virus program, now when I open a new tab, I get the AVG search page. Can I change it back so that I get the Speed Dial?

I had that too. On the bottom right of the AVG search page is a link which leads you to where you can switch it off. This restores normal Speed Dial operation.
This hijacking has really cheesed me off. I've just downloaded Avast and am going to put it on in place of AVG.

"open a new tab" buttton on the toolbar does not insert new tab after current

I want the open a new tab button at the right end of the tab bar to open a new tab after the currently open tab the same way the browser does when the browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent profile option is set to true.
This current behavior is VERY annoying as I always have many tabs open and then have to scroll all the way to the right of the tab bar and drag the new tab back to where I want it, which is always following the currently active tab.
Not sure if this was ever supported but if not I used to run Tabberwoky which no longer works and I've become quite fond of the feature and I need to make Firefox 8 do this.
Please tell me how, not that I can't or should do it some other way.
Thanks.

That did it! Sure saves me trying to figure out how to write an extension to do it but if there is a simple example similar to my request that the source code is available for so I can take a look at it to see how its done the link to it would be appreciated.
Thanks for the help!

How do I get a Vista 64 bit XP machine to show a "+" icon on the tab bar to "Open a new tab" and the "Open a new tab" icon on the far right of the Bookmarks tool bar?

I have Firefox 4.0.1 installed on two laptops, one with Windows Vista, 64 bit and the other with Windows XP. Both machines have the "Open a new tab" icon on the far right of the Bookmarks tool bar. The XP machine also has a + icon on the tab bar to "Open a new tab" while the Vista machine does not have that + icon. I like using that; is there any way to get it on the Vista machine?

After weeks of trying, I stumbled on the solution:
# Right-click on an empty section of the Tab Strip, select Customize... and the Customize Toolbar window will open.
# At the bottom of the Customize Toolbar window, there are additional options for changing the appearance of the icons in your toolbars. From the Show drop-down menu, you can choose what to display in the toolbars — Icons, Text, or Icons and Text together. By default, Firefox just shows Icons.
# Select Icons and Text
# When you are finished making changes, click Done to close the Customize Toolbar window.

When i open a new tab, rather than the curser flashing in the url space it opens a new search page. how do i get the new tab to open at the url?

when i open a new tab, rather than the curser flashing in the url window it opens a new search page. a new tab used to open at the url - how do i get it to do so again?

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.

i've tried to uninstall Firefox an reinstall it by with no success. seriously need help with this. because we use firefox a lot at work because certain software/websites that we work with only work in your webbrowser.

I had to uninstall the Ask toolbar, not just uncheck it under Tools. Once I uninstalled it, the new windows tab worked.

How can I set the page that will open, when I open a new tab, to be the same as the homepage?

How can I set the page that will open, when I open a new tab, to be the same as the homepage?
An app changed it to some other search engine, before installing the app, I the tab that would open was the homepage I set.
In my case it is Google, and I want my new tabs to open on Google like they did before the installation.
thank you,
Asaf Privman.

You can middle-click or Ctrl left-click the Home button on the Navigation toolbar to open the Home page in a new tab.
You can look at one of these extensions:
* NewTabURL : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/newtaburl/
* New Tab Homepage : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage/

Is there any shortcut to open a new tab next to the focused one? Ctrl+T opens it at the end of all tabs.

Hi, I have read the article about shortcuts, I didn't know all of that was possible.
But I did not find the only thing I was looking for.
I generally have lot of tabs open.
So often I need to open a new tab next to the one I am working in (the one with focus).
But when I press ctrl+t the new tab is opened at the end of all other tabs, and I need to move it where I want.
Is there a quickest way to open it directly there, next to the one with focus?
Thanks

Hi again
I think an addon may provide the service you are looking for. I looked about and found a few . Hope it meets your needs.

Do you have already visited more than one website in a tab if that happens?

Tabs in Firefox 7 won't work...I can't open a new tab by clicking on the +.....only way to open a new tab is via the FILE/new tab option...it seems like a lot of the options/buttons are non-pressable??

This issue can be caused by the Ask.com toolbar (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions)

Why does the Right-click -> "t" delete a bookmark on the bookmark toolbar, when Right-click -> "t" opens a new tab elsewhere in Firefox. The bookmark toolbar use Right-click -> "w" to open in a new tab. Please change this to "t" to... I keep deleting all my bookmark because you don't make the commands consistent!

If you have accidentally removed bookmarks then use "Organize > Undo" in the bookmarks manager (Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks) to get them back. 
The Organize button is the first of the three buttons on the toolbar in the Library (Bookmarks Manager). 
That only works if you haven't closed Firefox.
