With Firefox I use a cox.net home page which give the location and weather in Phoenix, AZ. I live in Green Valley, AZ. and can not get the change made from displaying Phoenix. I need it to display Green Valley location and weather. I can change it to display Green Valley info but after turning off Firefox, it will display the Phoenix info again on start up.
