I find multiple pages simultaneously opening in firefox when i try to open a link in stored bookmarks. It is splitting the about:home page in to two and displaying two pages simulataneously. I really like this.But is this feature intended. I find this behaviour intermittent and not happening for all the links. If firefox provides such a feature to open multiple windows at the same time it will be great other than the splitter add on

Chosen solution

Opening in the sidebar is the default for bookmarks that are created via a link or button on a website.
You can check the Properties of a bookmark via the right-click context menu in the sidebar (Ctrl+B; Command+B on Mac).
In the Bookmarks Manager (Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks) you can click the More button in the Details pane at the bottom right.
Make sure that "Load this bookmark in the sidebar" is not selected.
