My home page is Google. when I try to open another tab with Google, it reverts back to home page. I need to be able to open several Google pages at one time and can't. Firefox only allows one at a time because Google tab says "switch to tab". Thanks.

  • Use the cursor Right key to select an item marked as Switch to Tab in the drop down list and copy the URL to the location bar.
