Hi,

I have a computer that runs a screen all the time, I want the computer to boot after a power down and return straight to this screen. At the moment when the computer boots it opens firefox to a screen syaing 'well this is embarrasing'. Although a good feature normally I would like to know if it is possible to turn this off so it goes straight to the webpage desired?

Thanks Mash

Did you try to add the URL of that screen to the command line in the shortcut (launcher) that starts Firefox?

You may have to start with a shell script and delete the sessionstore.js file to prevent this issue or disable crash recovery (browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash = false).

Thanks for your help, this has solved the issue. ALthough I think I will need to write a script to check there is a network connection and then start firefox but nothing to do with this thread.

Thanks again.
