Hey my computer-savvy peeps. I just upgraded to Mozilla Firefox from IE (and yes- it is a HUGE upgrade)!!! The ONLY thing I don't like is the fact I can't open multiple pages at a time. Or can I? On IE you can have several tabs going at one time with different websites and I don't see that option here. Any ideas? Most likely it is a super easy fix that I just don't see.....

Thanks in advance!!

So sorry!!

Haha yea. You can have multiple tabs or windows open. Glad you figured it out!

Also, - the easy way I think

- just hold down your control key (or apple if you're on a mac) & the T key - so control T - opens a new tab -- you wouldn't believe how many tabs & windows I have open at one time!

You could also add a button to your toolbar for a new tab.

Click... View > Toolbars > Customise...

Then click the New Tab icon and drag it onto the toolbar at the top of Firefox anywhere you want it. There is also the History and Bookmarks icons you can add too.

You were still right...on macs that have the apple key, the apple key=the command key!
