Hi,

I open tabs via a script and in the past I have been able to determine, specify, which window (I have multiple windows open) would be used by making sure that the window was "active". The way I did that was to simply open a new tab in the browser window and that would make it the "active" window and all command line -new-tab requests would open in that window.

For some reason that has quit working and all new tabs are opened in one of the windows. I have no idea why it's picking that window. Is there a way to determine which window will be used? And, more to the point, is there a way to specify the window that should be used?

I'm running Firefox 54.0 (32-bit) on Ubuntu 16.04.2.

Thanks,

Rob

All tabs are probably opened in the window that is considered as the main (first) window. That is the window that is listed as the first window in the sessionstore.js file. When an extension is used then it would be possible to determine what the most recent use window is.

Browser Console:

  • Services.wm.getMostRecentWindow("navigator:browser").gBrowser.addTab("about:config");

Hi,

Perhaps I'm looking in the wrong place, but I don't see a sessionstore.js file anywhere in the .mozilla/firefox directory.

The sessionstore.js file is only present when Firefox is closed.

You can use the button on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page to go to the current Firefox profile folder or use the about:profiles page.
