<p>When I open a new tab the screen shows small images of web sites
recently visited. This is of little use to me; I would much rather
it opened on the “home page”.</p>
<p>Is this possible please?</p>
<p>I look forward to hearing from you and thank you, in
anticipation, for your assistance.</p>
<p>Yours faithfully,</p>
<p>MC Black</p></div>mc.blacktag:tenfourfox.tenderapp.com,2012-01-07:Comment/371448832015-06-17T17:14:05Z2015-06-18T05:11:58ZOpening tabs on home page<div><p>Hello, type about:config into the URL bar. Filter for "newtab".
Then set browser.newtab.url to your homepage (e.g. <a href="http://www.google.com">www.google.com</a>).</p></div>Chris (chtrusch)tag:tenfourfox.tenderapp.com,2012-01-07:Comment/371448832015-06-17T21:35:53Z2015-06-18T05:11:58ZOpening tabs on home page<div><p>Dear Chris</p>
<p>Thank you for taking the time to respond.</p>
<p>I'm afraid that I must ask you to send me exactly what I have
to<br>
type into the URL bar</p>
<p>I understand that the first entry is - about:config</p>
<p>but what EXACTLY must I do after that please?</p>
<p>I look forward to hearing from you and thank you, in
anticipation,<br>
for your continued assistance.</p>
<p>Yours sincerely,</p>
<p>MC Black</p>

brief side. Here are the steps:</p>
<p>1) Type 'about:config' (without quotes, as one word, no spaces)
in the URL (web address) bar and hit return.<br>
2) Confirm that you'll be careful.<br>
3) Type 'newtab' in the search field (this will give you only the
settings that are concerned with opening new tabs so you don't have
to scroll down 50 pages)<br>
4) double-click browser.newtab.url.<br>
5) In the dialog sheet "Enter string value", type the URL of your
desired homepage. Then click OK.<br>
6) Open a new tab to make sure it works.</p></div>Chris (chtrusch)tag:tenfourfox.tenderapp.com,2012-01-07:Comment/371448832015-06-18T05:28:36Z2015-06-18T05:28:36ZOpening tabs on home page<div><p>See screenshot.</p></div>Chris (chtrusch)tag:tenfourfox.tenderapp.com,2012-01-07:Comment/371448832015-06-18T07:33:40Z2015-06-18T07:33:40ZOpening tabs on home page<div><p>Dear Chris</p>
<p>Very many thanks for taking the time to give a<br>
