How to force Firefox to stay behind all other windows (on Windows)?

I want a certain website (https://samnaun.panomax.com/alp-trida-sattel) to act as "wallpaper" on one of my screens. Is there a configuration option present in Firefox that forces the Firefox window to always remain behind all other windows, even if I click in/on it accidentally? Is there a plugin that does this? Can a plugin even do that at all?

Why not save that screen background as wallpaper?

Because it is a live webcam view that scrolls horizontally and updates every 10 minutes.

Maybe play a video file in a picture in picture window that will always be on top. If you resize this PiP window to fill the screen then this should work.

I don't want it to be _on top_, I want it to be _behind everything_.

Of course, I can code a tool that will permanently push a Firefox window into the background, but I won't if there's an option for that already or an add-on. That's why I'm asking here.

Hello firefox507,

FWIW; someone filed a bug report about this 5 years ago :

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1090868

There is an add-on that has (among other things) hundreds of live wallpapers :

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/live-start-page-lst/

You could contact the developer(s) to ask if /how you can add the live wallpaper of your choice :
