Firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page.

I want to follow a link form the page I'm on to one that the web page I'm on to another page. This is not an unwanted redirect. Firefox dos put up a [ALLOW} option which lets the web site redirect to the new page I want to see. But I would like to make it a permanent ALLOW. I can't find anything in options which will ALLOW me to do so. TIA

Redirect Control 0.1.2 This add-on enables the user to allow or deny redirects from web pages.This add-on enables the user to allow or deny redirects from web pages.

Once you set a 'rule' it should no longer be a problem.

Thank You. I would think that Firefox would have this feature as a built-in feature.
