when using "back page" and "forward page", firefox seems to have a limited number of pages that can be accessed in this manner - can this number be increased?
I have a list of websites I visit on a daily basis and I usually keep them all in a single tab and just "back page" and "forward page" through them every day ( hitting refresh where necessary ). However, with the latest version of Firefox, there seems to be a limit on how many times "back page" can be hit before it just stops remembering those pages earlier in the queue. Is there some way to increase this number? or is it something i just have to live with?
thank you very much.

Yes, there is a limit. Also, if you are restoring a previous session, there is a smaller limit to what is restored.
You can adjust these limits as follows:
(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste sess and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click the following items and enter the desired number of pages:
(A) browser.sessionhistory.max_entries (in your live session, default=50)
(B) browser.sessionstore.max_serialize_back (in a restored session, back history in excess of this value is discarded, default=10)
(C) browser.sessionstore.max_serialize_forward (in a restored session, forward history in excess of this value is discarded, default=-1)
For (B) and (C), a value of -1 should mean "all", but the total could never exceed the value under (A).
This is theoretical: I have not modified these settings and tested for myself.
Note: (B) and (C) were added in Firefox 30.
