When I press New Tab, it always sends me to the Firefox Default Homepage. I only have 2 options for the New Tab page. The Firefox Default and a blank. I would like the option to choose what page is displayed when I press New Tab.

Is this possible?

Thanks

Great, that works well. It would be nice if there was a setting under New Tab that has a custom url option. Not sure if one way is better than the other.

Thanks!
