I want to know is there a way to open, say 3, Firefox windows and duplicate the actions done on one to happen across all open Firefox windows. I want to use the repeat feature, left click followed by ENTER the whole time on a current thing I'm working on. The tabs won't work because I have to flip through them the whole time. I'm currently doing this on two computers at the same time but need an easier way. If I duplicate tabs, it only opens the original source of the page I duplicate and not the current page I'm viewing so its a time taking process to click on the links where I need to be then start doing the control+tab. Speed is a major issue so any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I am still trying to figure out what it is you are trying to do.

You have X number of pages open, and you want what you do to one page to also be repeated on the other pages? Most browsers think that multiple pages are individual, and separate.

What is it you are working on? No secured information, please.

You can't 'sync' action over multiple windows, so you will have to go to each window and reload its tabs yourself if you expect them to have updated content.
