    @Chetan Thanks for your comments.

    @Vijay In IE 6, multiple pages as home is not possible. It is available only from IE7. I think Firefox supports this much before IE. However, I don’t have proof to prove :)

    @Anand After a quick search on Google, I found a way to achieve your requirement.

    Firefox doesn’t support this feature by default. However you can use the add-ons New Tab URL to achive this.
