Hiroshi Shimoda for Tabbrowser Extensions V1.10.200lots of numbers

Why?
Take a built in FireFox function such as tabbed browsing and build onto it extra, meaningful, useful, simple to use functionality. Its brilliant, I use it all the time now especially the session reloading.
Well done!

Second place would go to Jeremy Gillick's Extension Uninstaller, what a life saver. It does exactly what it says on the tin, no messing!

Because it's not well-liked by many, who see it as fat, bloated and destabilizing to Firefox.

If you want the basics, use Tabbrowser Preferences instead - http://www.pryan.org/mozilla/site/TheOneKEA/tabprefs/

No, if there was an oscar for extensions it would go to Momokatte for FireSomething.

TheOneKEA, I keep trying every build of Tabbrowser Preference, but it never work on my system. I'm not sure why, but it won't open exteranl link in new tab. I finally give up...go back and use TBE. Yes, it kinda make the Firefox a bit slower, but every function of TBE is working on my system.

How does TBP open external links on your system then? I fixed a small bug in v0.6.5 that should definitely make the four options on the external link controller listbox do what they say they do.

I just install 0.6.5, but I still have the same problem, it won't open the external link in new tab. It just open external link in the current tab. Even I set the internal link to open in new tab but it won't open, unless I click "Lock all tabs(open all links in new tabs)".
But then it will open every links in new tab which is I don't want. I just want the external link to open in new tab and internal link to open in the current tab.

Thank you,

Oddly enough, despite its bugs, mine would go to Slogger.

Now I can backup the internet.

Which saves the older, more pedestrian ways I was trying to preserve the pages I wanted to.

I use duplicate tab and reload all tabs often. is there another ext. that will enable this?

My guess is that TBE is not listed because the developers do not recommend it in fact they recommend not using it.
