Mozilla Releases Firefox 2.0 RC3

[F1]

Mozilla has released Firefox 2.0 RC3 to the public. This is the last developmental milestone for Firefox 2.0 and work has already commenced on Firefox 3.0. The Mozilla Foundation is confident of the quality of this RC3 according to comments made by the company's VP for engineering, Mike Schroepfer. "If there are no showstoppers, RC3 will be it," said Schroepfer.

Firefox 2.0 offers a wealth of new features compared to its 1.5.0.x predecessors. Changes include an updated user interface, built-in anti-phishing, inline spell checking, improved tabbed browsing and search capabilities, browser session recovery, and an updated add-ons/extensions manager.

Okay, I cannot get tabbed browsing. How it worked in another browser is each time you opened another website, a little tab would be up top. Now when I open another website, it closes the one tab and puts the new one in its place. I have downloaded firefox 2.0
Can someone please walk me through this because somehow, I am just not getting it. Thank you.

perhaps try going to the Tools choice in the uppermost menu
from there select Options
go to the Tabs tab
"New windows should be opened in:"
click the radio button for "a new tab"
click "OK"
close the options menu

alternately, a new tab will also occur if you use the middle button (ie. scrollwheel) to click on a link ___ provided of course that your mouse has a middle button or pushing the scrollwheel will act as a middle button ........ push, not turn

So firefox doesn't remember tabs automatically? Every time yo are on a website you have to click the middle wheel of the mouse bar? I used to have Slimbrowser and that was great. Everything happened automatically and you didn't have to remember to click on anything to save it as a tab.
I do have the radio button "new tab" marked under Options.
Thank you.
