From a shell script open a new tab in a specific instance of Firefox.
- by toc777
Hi everyone,
I have a shell script that creates Firefox profiles and then uses them to open multiple instances of Firefox simultaneously. The problem is how can I open a URL in a particular instance of Firefox?
I have tried
firefox -CREATEPROFILE test
firefox -P 'test' -no-remote
firefox -P test -url www.google.ie
But the last part which is trying to open the URL using the test profile does not work, it always opens in then default profile.
Is there any way to tell Firefox from the command line to open a URL using a particular profile?
Thanks.
