Hey all,

I am using 3 monitors for work (2 external monitors and my laptop display)

My laptop display is configured as the main display. I am using FF (latest version) on one of my external displays, but whenever a popup appears, it always opens on my laptop display. Is there a way to make the popups appear on the same external display that FF is on?

I tried changing the values for browser.link.open_newwindow but it doesnt seem to change the behavior.

Is it possible to do what I am trying to accomplish?

That is a Windows O/S and video driver function not a Browser function. You need to go to a Windows forum to get help on that.
