In my opinion, this should keep your "currently" browwsed to page as the first open tabbed broswer screen, instead of taking you to 2 generic Firefox screens. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Browse to a page on the web 2. Right-click in teh grey area near the top of the screen, and select "Open in Tabs" 3. My browsed page is GONE, and 2 firefox tabbed pages appear. Annoying to have to go back to my page after I was already there. Actual Results: Described above. Expected Results: Kept my original surfed-to page as teh first tabbed page.
It sounds like an extension may be at fault. I only have 5 choices when I right click and none of them are "open in tabs". Try recreating using firefox's safe mode and then a new profile. If this solves the issue than it is likely an extension is at fault. http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_Mode_(Firefox) http://www.mozilla.org/support/firefox/profile#new In the future use one of the community suport support options first before filing a bug http://www.mozilla.org/support/#community.
Close bug - Never mind - I found the problem, and it was user error. I Didn't have tabs setup correctly in teh program settings. Rex S.
