In Firefox 3 you do not get the 'Save & Quit' pop-up dialog if you choose Tools > Options > General > Startup: "When Firefox Starts": "Show my windows and tabs from last time".

If that option is selected then your pages will already be reopened the next time.

To get that pop-up dialog you have to select one of the other choices (Show my home page,Show a blank page).

You can reset the warn prefs on the about:config page via the right-click context menu.

• browser.tabs.warnOnClose , see http://kb.mozillazine.org/About%3Aconfig_entries
• browser.warnOnQuit , see http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.warnOnQuit
• browser.warnOnRestart , see http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.warnOnRestart

To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.

You can also check for problems with session restore.

Thanks for your reply, Corel.

I wasn't getting the "save and exit" with any of the settings. But I think I just figured out what's going on. If I hit the X key to close, the close dialogue box comes up, but if I select "command q" to quit, the "save and exit" dialogue box comes up instead. I'll have to remember to quit instead of close.

So now that I have that figured out, do you know how to automatically open a link into a new tab? I lost my post to you after clicking on a link.
