I want the open a new tab button at the right end of the tab bar to open a new tab after the currently open tab the same way the browser does when the browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent profile option is set to true.

This current behavior is VERY annoying as I always have many tabs open and then have to scroll all the way to the right of the tab bar and drag the new tab back to where I want it, which is always following the currently active tab.

Not sure if this was ever supported but if not I used to run Tabberwoky which no longer works and I've become quite fond of the feature and I need to make Firefox 8 do this.

Please tell me how, not that I can't or should do it some other way.

Thanks.

That did it! Sure saves me trying to figure out how to write an extension to do it but if there is a simple example similar to my request that the source code is available for so I can take a look at it to see how its done the link to it would be appreciated.

Thanks for the help!

You're welcome.

Most extensions are written as a combination of JavaScript and XUL code (some may have binary compnents as well).
XPI files are ZIP archives and you can open the extension's XPI file with a ZIP archive manager to inspect the files in it.
