I need to know how to set new tabs to open on my Google homepage instead of opening a blank tab.

I had this feature set before when I was using Firefox 3.6. Now I have FF4 and I can't find an option anywhere to set my tabs so that a new tab opens on Google instead of opening a blank page. I may just be overlooking it, but I can't fin an answer to this through search feature in help on Mozilla. Anyone got an answer for me?

You can do that by using an add-on such as:

Another way of opening the home page in a new tab is to middle click on the home button in the navigation toolbar.

Yeah, I know about using the home button, but would rather already have the page up when I hit new tab like before. Sorta sad that now there has to be an add for that. :( But thank you very much for the help.
