Want Firefox to open tab as blank, but opens up a search engine when pressing + symbol for new tab

Every time I attempt to open a new tab, a search engine comes up. I just want a blank page to come up. Every time I open a new tab, and start typing a web address, I end up with half the address in the address window, and the latter half in the search engine search window!
