Hi, all. I don't know if there is a particular feature for opening tabs or windows, but when you click a link, a new tab/window opens up and the new webpage is opened in front of you. Is there a way to make the tabs/window open in behind the other tabs one has already open? I can't really explain well, what I am needing, I just thought there might be a feature that when clicking on a link, the tab will open up behind the other tabs.

Hello lisabrown,

This can be done with a few clicks. Open Firefox settings by clicking:

MENU > TOOLS > OPTIONS

On that page look for various options under "Tabs". Please make sure the two following settings are checked.

"Open new windows in a new tab instead" and "Don’t load tabs until selected"

Once you do this the pages will load as you wanted above.

Please let me know whether or not this helps.
