Hey all, a query really. In Chrome, when you click a link it opens a new tab which places itself next to the tab you have open. Is there a way to set Firefox to do this also, instead of it opening the new tab right at the end of my row of tabs? Does that make sense?

use the tab mix plus plug in. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1122 I'm pretty sure that allows that option. |

the skin im using , vista-aero, has this functionality. it also colour-codes tabs that have been opened from other tabs, so you can see which tabs were opened from where, much like IE8 |

 This feature now seems to be in Firefox 3.6 (by default too)!

Firefox 3.6 does it automatically, and I can't find a way to switch it off, so I'm back on 3.5. I tend to open 3-4 pages of links (E.g. the different sections of this forum, then work through them and open all the unread threads from those 3-4 pages) and work through them in order). Opening the links between the current tab and the "next" tab is a complete pain!

+1 I also preferred it when the tab close button was on the left of the tab, and when you could use cursor keys to move between tabs. Does the pug-in mentioned allow this sort of control? |

As for 3.6, it broke 7 out of my 14 extensions and looked bloody awful. And no, Personas didn't work. |

Most extensions are updated within a day or two. And the personas are working fine for me. I've got a grey cat with blueish green eye staring at me from my browser. |

I'm gonna mess around with the tab thing later - mine's still open at the end of the queue  I couldn't be arsed going through the personas to find one I liked that didn't make browsing a bunch of tabs a pain

The solution to this problem. No add-ons required. CLICKY EDIT That's the opposite of what you described. FF3.6 does what you ask by default. |

More importantly FF3.6 has brokéd the WebDev Toolbar. Hrmph! <eddit>Scrap that. FF said that no update was available for existing WebDev Toolbar I had installed, but re-downloading from the site and it works (8-s)</eddit> |
