new tab = double click on the tab bar

click the link with middle button of ur mouse = new tab also

Is there any extensions to allow browsed pages to be saved and opens those saved pages everytime I start Firefox? I am using Avant Browser and the single reason I did not switch to Firefox is because I love this feature a lot and if it were allowed in Firefox, I definitely would switch!!!

The extension has already been posted by samuraiKidz a few posts up this page. It's called SessionSaver..
