    In the Mozilla browser , the procedure is virtually identical to that of Internet Explorer . Click "Tools" and choose "Internet Options"As shown in the image below : Tab "General" The first section is "Start-up" This is where we will configure the homepage. Currently my browser is open CommentQuoi , so I choose the option "Current Page"To put in CommentQuoi homepage. PC Firefox. You can also manually type the website address or select from one of your "Bookmark" or Favorites ( Bookmark English ) or "Restore defaults"To find the initial configuration.

Tab "General" or "Hand"In English, in "Start-up"( Startup in the example) , click on "Use Current Page"To define the active browser window as your homepage. You can also choose the home page in your "Bookmark" or "Bookmark" or "Restore defaults"To find the initial configuration .

    You can also use Context Search is a Firefox extension that allows to perform via the menu , a search on the current selection with any of your search engine ( by default Firefox does allow you search with the search current) . Install and enjoy: no configuration is required ( see demonstration). It seems to me so essential (saving time guaranteed ) that I do not understand why this is not integrated by default in Firefox.
