If I would like to have all opened tabs in my browser stop loading a webpage is their a shortcut key that will allow this?
If I open too many Bookmarked pages into tabs my browser will hang and then sometimes crash or close unexpectedly. If I bring up task manager or use the Alt + Tab I can navigate to the window and right-click and choose restore to allow me to see the window again. This needs to be done if I load more than 10 pages at once. Is there a way to choose to prevent loading of all opened tabs and then choose which tabs I'm currently working with to load the webpage? I would like to know how to use a shortcut key on my keyboard to select all tabs as ctrl + A does not work and then escape or another key tells to stop all pages from loading in each tab as with all the ads, gifs, videos, and internet spam keeps growing it is too much of a strain to have multiple webpages opened in tabs on the browser.
I use Win XP SP2 and I am eagerly waiting a solution as it has been an issue with even previous versions of Firefox however IE could only have about 3 tabs opened and then would crash that is why I stick with Firefox as my browser of choice.

Sorry, there is no keyboard shortcut for that. And I haven't seen an extension which provides a feature like that either.
Firefox does have a hidden preference which limits the number of new tabs that can be opened in one action before getting a warning message.
browser.tabs.maxOpenBeforeWarn = 15
You can change that pref to 10 like this.
Type about:config in the URL bar and hit Enter.
If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.
Filter - browser.tabs.maxOpenBeforeWarn
Then right-click that pref and select Modify - enter 10 where 15 shows, then click OK and restart Firefox.
Thanks for looking into I just use the File > Work Offline option then I locate about 100 Bookmarks I want to open and then after loading in Firefox I choose Work Offline and remove check. After I just have each page I want refreshed to display and then move on to the other tabs when I'm done. Too bad there is no easier keyboard shortcut or option. I guess people don't have their Bookmarked sites pile up on them like I had. lol.
Just saw your posting from yesterday - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/876195

Checks your bookmarks are valid and the pages still exist, checks for duplicates ...

Maybe:
Both addons work great you both are a life saver!! This will save me a lot of time organizing and removing old bookmarks. I wanted to test out in different areas before reply. Sorry for double post at

I wanted to have this issue resolved and I didn't want to have a big description like the previous page. You solved my issue. Firefox is still #1!
thanks.
