Make Firefox 3.6 Open New Tabs the Way Firefox 3.5 Did

18.03.2010

2. Click the I'll be careful, I promise! button. (Feel free to clear the checkbox so you don't see that warning again.)

3. In the Filter field, type browser.tabs.insert. You should see the preference name browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent appear.

4. Right-click that entry and then click Toggle. That'll change the Value setting to false.

That's all there is to it! You don't even have to close that tab or restart Firefox. If you want to go back to the new way of opening new tabs, just repeat the steps and toggle the Value back to true.

Okay, survey time: Which method do you prefer? I was actually just starting to get used to the new way, but now I'm thinking I may go back. Decisions, decisions.
