Opening a new tab.

more options

Hello,

How do I set it up so that I get Google.com when I open a new tab in Firefox? When I launch Firefox, I DO get google as my home page- It's only when I hit a "new tab" that I get a blank page and I have to hit the "Home" button to get google. FYI- I just downloaded the new 8.0.1 Version of Firefox hoping to have success that way but no such luck.

Thanks,

Lee Massie

BTW- I use Windows 7 on a PC not Mac.

The default New Tab in Firefox is a blank page and there is no built-in option to change that.

CTRL+left-click the Home icon will open a new tab to your set home page.

This Add-on will open a new tab when clicking the new tab "+" icon (or when clicking New Tab from the menu) to whatever page you set in the options for the add-on:
