Say I already have a tab with youtube.com (example) opened and I create a new tab with youtube. Instead of giving me a new tab with that URL I just entered fire fox jumps BACK to the original tab with youtube.com opened. I hate that. I don't want fire fox to do this. Let me have multiple tabs open with the same website. Don't try to be smart.

Any advice how to turn this off? Do I have to switch to Chrome?

If you try to open the same URL in more than one tab then you may have the "Switch to tab" feature preventing that.
Hold down the Alt or Shift key while an entry in the drop down list is highlighted to disable "Switch to tab" and see the URL of all entries instead.

  • Alt + Enter opens the highlighted URL in a new tab.
  • Shift + Enter opens the highlighted URL in the current tab.
  • Cursor Right copies the highlighted URL to the location bar in case you want to edit it.

In addition, if you middle-click on the reload button, it will open the the current page in a new tab.
