Recomend another broweser. My problem with Firefox is that it wont
load things int he background and keep focus on my current page.



Now it just loads evey link i click on in th same tab. Might as well
use IE

Anyways any decent browsers that do as i wish and explain it in simple
terms.

Iam lookign now on download.com and Tucows.

Thanks.

In Firefox:

"Tools" -> "Options" -> "Tabs" -> Untick "Select new tabs opened from links"

And what have you done to make it behave like you want, e.g. have you
set it in the preferences to load tabs in the background?

Anyway, I can recommend SeaMonkey. You dont need to install more than
the browser, if that's all you want to have.

background. But still keep focuson the current webpage. Now its stuck
just opeing in the same tab !!!!!


I think my install is screwed for good andonly a reformat would fix
it. Thats great programming on Firefoxes part

Iam using the same settings i used on my last install but they dont
work

You have a problem with your wetware. You need to buy a new internet.
I hear they're on sale this week at CompUSA.

I think you'll find it's a PEBCAK error. Maybe an ID ten T error

Why not try a new firefox profile, as if you started afresh - no
reinstall/browser switch needed... all you have to do is GOOGLE it.
