IE 7: Can I set my Home page to open in a new tab?

[Draeger]

Quick question.

In IE 7, is it possible to have any "new tab" that opens, open as my home page ( Google ) ??.

Thanks.

Go to control panel, internet options, first page under the heading "Home page" type the address of the website then enter for the next tab and so forth.
I've got three tabs that open: Overclockers front page, Ocuk forums and my be* email page.

Hope the helps

I think you mean when you open a new tab instead of the blank page appearing you want your homepage to appear e.g. google.

• Select "Internet Options…" from the "Tools" menu.
• On the "General" tab, in the "Tabs" section, choose "Settings".
• Check "Open home page for new tabs instead of a blank page".
• Select "OK

Hope this helps

Problem solved!!!

When you open up your new tab, look at the page it opens.

There is a "check box" for "dont show me this again".

You need to tick that and then once you open a new tab, it opens with whatever your home page is set to.

Cool!!!
