I want to open all the bookmarks in a folder without switching to them.

I have a lot of sites I check regularly and have them sorted in folders. I know the way to open a single bookmark without automatically switching to it, but when I open all the bookmarks in a folder, it automatically switches to the first bookmark in the folder. Is there any way to stop this from happening?

Hmm, I would have thought that setting the browser.tabs.loadBookmarksInBackground preference to true would take care of that, but I see what you mean. I don't know why Open All in Tabs doesn't obey the same rule.

Do you want to file a bug about the inconsistency? (You also could search to see whether one is on file.)
