150310 - tabbed browser should support multiple home pages

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 118835

(SeaMonkey :: Tabbed Browser, enhancement)

Description

[Michael Spertus]

From Bugzilla Helper:

BuildID:    2002053012

It would be awesome and useful to be able to specify multiple home pages, so
that Mozilla opens with several predefined tabs. This way, I could have all my
standard pages available whenever I start. As an analogy, imagine how awful it
would be if gnome only allowed one application to be opened on the desktop at
startup. Mine comes up with a browser, a command prompt, and a perfmon. For many
computer users, however, the browser is their desktop, and it would be nice to
let them configure a startup set of tabs. This is really a natural concept once
you are in the mindset of a tabbed browser.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Wish you could have a set of home pages that automatically open in multiple tabs
2.Hit the Home Button
3.

Actual Results:  The home page opens

Expected Results:  All the home pages should open

A reasonable way to do this would be to add a new button labeled "Use Current
Tabs" to Edit/Preferences/Navigator/Home Page. This would set the home pages to
the current tabs, with the currently active tab as the initially active home
tab. Of course, if a URL is entered explicitly, you should have the choice of
making it the home page or adding it to the list of home pages.
