Try this: Type about:config in the address bar. Then, if needed click the "IÂll be careful, I promise!" button. Next, in the filter box  type in: tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent Right-click that about:config entry, and select "Toggle" This will convert Firefox back to loading opening a new tab from a web page on the far right of the tab bar, rather than right next to the tab you opened it from. To switch back, follow these same steps and toggle the "false" back to "true". The above procedures come from the link below. HTH.

My husband and I use FireFox all the time, but for the rare occasions when some site won't work (a video, for instance) in FF, we just right-click and choose 'View this page in IE," so we don't have to have two browsers open all the time. This function I mentioned is thanks to the FF add-on called IE View. There is a smaller add-on called IE View Lite, by another programmer, but that wouldn't work right for me, so I went back to the original IE View. I had a hard time finding the download for it, though. Using Search kept bringing up IE View Lite. The original is on p.3 or later of the results, so in case you need it, here is a link.

Related or not? I like FF as it has been personalized with add-ons for my convenience. However, the versions released over the last several years have increasingly failed to open sites, complete a view offering, and resulting in more dead hyper-links. And many sites are important sites to me. V39.0 is now the worst with the most failures. It's not a security settings issue, and its not add-ons blocking a page's ability to load as it occurs with add-ons disabled. It's not an AdBlock issue. The effected pages work just fine in IE, Opera, Chrome, and Slimbrowser. I am approaching the need to drop FF altogether. It's been a while, but I have read other users complain of the failures and supported their wishful thinking that the next release will remedy the concern. It hasn't. DA

Thanks a lot for taking the time to help me, Richard. I have been trying your suggestions, but is -> the same as >? I've been trying various combinations of space, dash, and >, but am not familiar with the combination of a dash and >. Anyway, I did finally figure out that Pale Moon has not disabled Scrapbook. But all its contents are still missing, no matter what I do. At some point, I also got to Scrapbook in my FF profile, but then nothing inside it led to a solution. The best I could do was to choose the browser to open an .rdf file, which resulted--depending on what I clicked on--in messages: (1) "This XML file (Huh? I thought it was RDF.) does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below" and some meaningless repetitions of RDF and "urn:scrapbook:root" that took me to a very confusing list of unhelpful things when I clicked on it, and (2) an extremely long list of items in a blue font, some of which bore a resemblance to things that might have been in Scrapbook, while others did not, all smashed together with no organization and impossible to use. I suppose this was for the same reason mentioned in (1), that there was no style information associated with it. I am considering that "last resort." I'm tempted to go ahead with sys restore immediately, but as it happens, the only restore point is 9/12, which was well before PM was installed, so to be polite, I will wait to see if anyone on the Pale Moon forum (where I have posted about this problem) offers a solution. Somehow, I despair of success in this case, and I'll probably have to give up on the lost Scrapbook entries and then decide whether or not all the trouble and confusion are worth sticking with Pale Moon. The way it and Firefox seem to be communicating and changing things in each other behind the scenes might drive me crazy. I've never come across anything like that before.
