  When I open a new tab, I'm on it to open it with Google Search. How can I change this?

  Hi, 41 of Firefox, you must use the add-on tab override (browser.newtab.url replacement), to make changes to the page tab.

  Once installed, open the Add-ons (Ctrl + Shift + A) Manager > Extensions, and then look for the new tab override and click Options to set your preference.

  Notice, if you want only the new tab to be the same as your home page, you can use the Add on new tab homepage instead.

  You will then need to restart Firefox for all changes to take effect.

    • default = true, do not have the new active tab
    • In the page Options dialog box, this is controlled by him "when I open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately" setting.
  • Browser.Tabs.Load InBackground ofdiversion = > when divert you a new window generated by script in a new tab using Ctrl + click, or a page using the link target attribute in a new launcher and divert you a new tab

• How to make the top sites page appears when I open a new tab? Why have I not of "buttons" to pin a top site of the page tab?

  When I open a new tab, NO best sites don't show up... shows just a search engine box. I have Firefox 33.0. Why is there no 'pin' button when I opened a new page? How to make the top sites page appears when I open a new tab?

  (2) in the search above the list box, type or paste newtab and make a pause so that the list is filtered
