Firefox Add-On – Multiple Tab Handler

Firefox Add-OnDo you use Firefox for your browser? Consider using the Multiple Tab Handler add-on. This add-on has features that handle multiple tabs at one time, allowing you to close them or reload them at once. Dragging the mouse over tabs will select them (you can also use the control click option) and allow you to manipulate them.

Built-in features for selected tabs include:

  • Close selected tabs
  • Close not-selected tabs
  • Reload selected tabs
  • Duplicate selected tabs
  • Pin/unpin selected tabs
  • Move selected tabs to a group
  • Move selected tabs to a new window
  • Bookmark selected tabs
  • Copy URIs/titles+URIs/HTML links for selected tabs to the clipboard
  • Save (download) selected tabs to the local disk
  • Print selected tabs (requires Print All Tabs)


Additionally, you can customize the tab selection menu by using the Menu Editor. Extra features for the context menu include:

  • Close right tabs
  • Close left tabs
  • Close all tabs including the selected tab
  • Close similar tabs (same domain) excluding the selected tab



For developers, the Multiple Tab Handler add-on provides a public API. With the API, you can:

  • Add new feature to the tab selection menu
  • Add new item to the tab context menu easily
  • Get selected tabs as an array
  • Toggle selection state of tabs


If you’re interested in having greater control over your tabs while using Firefox, give the Multiple Tab Handler a try.
