hey,

so basically what im searching for is the following:

I need to open two Firefox instances with two different links... I have done this with the following batch:

@echo off cd "C:\Programme\Mozilla Firefox\"

start firefox.exe URL1

start firefox.exe URL2

This just starts two Firefox instances and opens them on one Monitor. What i need is, that when you start the batch file the two Firefox windows seperate and one link opens on one screen and the other one opens on the other screen. Is there any way to do this?! Maybe a firefox addon i couldn't find? Maybe some batch commands to give the second window another position?

thanks! :)

Hello, to me, it's not a Firefox issue and I think you should ask to batch experts. I've found some literature on the internet as this one.

Hope it helps.
