HOW TO CHANGE YOUR HOME PAGE IN FIREFOX

By JC Leahy

Of course, your home page is the page that appears automatically when you start your browser.  My Firefox's default home page is AOL.  Now that AOL has merged with the ultra-liberal-to-the-hateful-extreme Huffington Post, I wanted to change to a different website for my home page.   It is as simple as 1-2-3 to accomplish!!  I decided to make the Journal of American Ideas Today my new home page, at http://www.jaitoday.com . Here's how:

  1. From the Menu Bar at the very top of the screen, select "Options"
  2. In the "Home Page" space of the Options Window, just replace the address there with the address you want -- in this case http://www.jaitoday.com
  3. Click "OK"  at the bottom of the Options Window.

That's it!!! Finished!!!!!!!

There is one variation you might find useful.  Before you do 1-2-3 as spelled out above, GO to the website that you want as your new home page.  Then, instead of typing in the address in the Options Window, just select "Use Current Page."
