when I open a new tab I would like it to open with my home page. Currently I have to click the home icon to go to my home page. The first tab opens with my home page but not extra ones.

Hi Janee34,

You should check out some of the add-ons such as New Tab King. You can find out more about add-ons in the Find and install add-ons to add features to Firefox Knowledge Base article.

Hopefully this helps!

Middle clicking works perfectly. Thank you.

The above solutions did not work for me (what is middle clicking). I installed the add on but it did not work. My home page is google,com.au which opens in the first tab - after installing the add on this url opens in subsequent tabs http://www.searchqu.com/406?tag=newtab . How do I get this to read my home url of http://www.google.com .au

Thanks

Middle clicking is clicking the wheel in the middle of the mouse. If you haven't got a mouse with a wheel I'm not sure what you can do.
