Install

Install Clone Window 0.2.9

Description

Clones the current tab's address and history into a new window when the New Window command is used (and optionally into a new tab when the New Tab command is used).

Note: If you're looking for on demand tab duplication then the Duplicate Tab extension might be more suitable.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. How do I configure Clone Window to clone tabs?

Go to Tools->Add-ons->Extensions->Clone Window->Options, then set the New Tab command to Clone Tab.

I switched from the dark side (IE) to Firefox 2 months ago. This was the ONLY thing I missed from IE. I cant thank you enough. Too bad you cant see the smile on my face

Hallo Pike,

Great Extension!! I can't miss it anymore...

Regards

#64 Pike Monday, 3rd January 2005

@bird

I'll look into the problem with 1.0+, keep an eye on the site over the next week or so.

#65 bird Thursday, 6th January 2005

Hallo Pike,

Thank you for your answer! It works if I clone to a new tab instead a new window.

#66 P Thursday, 13th January 2005

It appears to work fine for me with FF 1.0.

The first time I ran this, I exclaimed "Sweet!" This is the only feature I was missing from IE.

Please add links for this extension to:
https://addons.update.mozilla.org/extensions/

Thanks!

!!

For some reason the download link isn't working for me.

#68 Dan Monday, 17th January 2005

How do you install the extension?

#69 Dan Monday, 17th January 2005

Cancel the question about install - figured it out.

Thanks

Dan

@Brad

It works for me, if you still can't get it to work try downloading from the mirror at:

Hmm, I'm not sure what the problem was, but I got it installed by right clicking and saving it to my local hard drive first and then installing it from there.

Great plugin! Thanks :D

#73 Jeff7 Thursday, 20th January 2005

Excellent; thank you very much for this extension. It was one thing I really missed when I started the transition to Firefox.
I'm using 0.2.4 on Firefox 1.0, and it's working great.

#74 bird Saturday, 22nd January 2005

Thank you Pike!!!

It works also for 1.0+!! Great!!

#75 bird Monday, 24th January 2005

:-(

It's broken again... (20050124)

#76 Dan Monday, 24th January 2005

Thank you!!!!!!

#77 Pike Tuesday, 25th January 2005

@bird

Updated. There's a good chance it might break again, please let me know if it does.

#78 bird Tuesday, 25th January 2005

Thank you!

Clone Window is a "must have" for me...
Yes, the trunks are at this moment really "dynamic" at all :-)

#79 Martin Thursday, 27th January 2005

Great Extension! Is there any way the tab can be cloned when a new tab is opened from the search bar (if that option is selected when use TBE)?

Thanks!

#80 RenegadeX Friday, 28th January 2005

Is there a reason why the 'New Tab' options only affect the 'New Tab' in the File menu?

When I right-click on a Tab and choose 'New Tab' it ALWAYS is a blank tab, no matter what option I have set in Clone Window 2.5 Options.
