By default, Firefox allows the setting of multiple homepages separated by the pipe or vertical bar character "|" (Note: it appears as a broken bar "¦" on many keyboards).

Now this works fine for opening multiple tabs every time the browser is started or the home button is clicked; however, it can slow down the browser startup.-Homepage Randomizer

Try these:

Speed Dial Firefox Extension:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4810

Morning Coffee:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2677

Daily Bookmarks:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/7814

Question:

How is Back to Top any different than pressing the Home and End keys?

Continued from my last collection:

1. No Squint - Adjust text and page zoom separately and saves it per site. A life saver for me when Opera's fit to width isn't cutting it out.

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2592

2. Sort by Size - combined with tab counter, this is my favorite extension for reading. Sorts your tabs based on their length so you read the shortest tab first.

3. EasyComment - made me start responding to blogs. Auto-inserts Name and E-mail to wordpress blogs

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/9095

4. Outwit Images - powerful advanced image crawler. Still no idea how to use it but it looks good.

Curt:
- Morning Coffee looks good. An answer to your question could be that they are the same but you don't press any keys at all if your hand is on the mouse.

Thanks to you and Paul.
I found an solution:
Extras > Settings... > Startpage > [use bookmark] > (click on the folder with your favorites) > and FF adds the URLs from that folder
 separated with an "|" pipe-sign automatically

Fine!


"Autostart FF with an few default URLs"- in FF i  have already an favorite folder for a few sides (not more then 10 URLs) i want to open as, say "default" .
--- so i can launch FF, right click on my favorite folder and chose "open all in tabs"

But i would prefer an automation to launch those  URLs at FF start automatically.
Here is how i do that:
Extras > Settings... > Startpage > [use bookmark] > (click on the folder with your favorites URLs)  > and FF adds
the URLs from that folder separated with an "|" pipe-sign automatically as "start page" and opens them all in new tabs

- so i start my pc
--- FF is in autostart
----- FF starts and launches URL-1 in tab, URL-2 in an another tab, URL-3...
-- i came back and all sides are loaded

Now an automation would be nice to modify the start page as the favorite folder is modified.
I search for something like an script to use as "start page" to load all URLs from favorite folder named "default"
I will search if one could use an JS script as startpage.... the rest should be easy.

Thanks Curt.

Btw in my earlier reply I link to Outwit Images, what I meant was Outwit Hub.

http://www.outwit.com/products/hub/firstRun.php?version=0.6.0.172

It just has more features.
