How do I make Firefox load a tab before I've clicked on it.

Mark replied
David P.

Any time I launch Firefox, and it loads with the six tabs I have setup, it doesn't actually load the site until I click the tab. It shows the tabs with the correct favicons, but it doesn't actually download the site until I click the tab. Is there anyway to get it to load the site before I ever click the tab?

Since you want to load regular tabs automatically after startup, you should set browser.sessionstore.restore_on_demand to false in about:config

I tested this in a new profile, and it worked.
