ٰIf I want to reopen several websites, every time I have to go to the beginning of the history to open the next website. Why History cannot stay open?

Sometimes I want to reopen several websites. I go to History of the past week or month. After I open a site, I cannot go back to History to open another site because it is closed. I have to open the History and start from the beginning. This is very annoying. History should remain open until I am done.

Hello,

Try use History on Side Bar, press Ctrl+H or go to View >> Painel >> History

You can open the History window, press Ctrl+Shift+H or History >> Show all history, you can alternate between History Window and Firefox Window. You dont need close the Window.

Also, Firefox 30 has a new Sidebar button which allows you to open the History or Bookmarks Sidebar using a Toolbar button and a menu-item "click". Once either Sidebar is open it won't close until the user closes it; should persist from one startup to the next startup.

Why not Bookmark those web pages?

Most of the web pages I open are only for one reading, not to be saved.

It does close after I click on the link I want and have to go back to search from beginning.

Firefox should keep History open at the point where a link is clicked. After opening a page, one should be able to return precisely to the link that had been clicked. History should close ONLY WHEN I close it myself.

If you open History in the Sidebar it will stay open as long as Firefox is open or until you close the Sidebar or you switch to Bookmarks, Social, or Feeds in the Sidebar.

Have you tried doing what Diego Victor posted a week ago? Holding the Ctrl key and pressing the H key to open the History Sidebar.

The sidebar does open and remains open but stops there. The problem arises when I click on a link and it opens. The sidebar takes me back to the beginning and I have to trudge back to the point where I had opened the link. I should be taken back to the link that I had clicked so that I may go further and click the next link that I want. It happens in History of Chrome. Firefox should do the same.
