Let's say I want to read some of the Mother Jones and Alternet articles I'd linked to from e-mails over the past in two months. I open my Firefox history. I do a search of the history libary to get a list of all the relevant locations. Then I use Control+click to select the few articles I want to read. I'd think Ctrl+O would open all those selected, but it doesn't. There must be a more efficient way than what I'm doing now, which is to open a new tab in the browser window, go to history, double click one line, wait for the page to load; open a new tab, go back to the history search results, click on a new location, wait as it loads, repeat.

Where are you viewing your History?
Have you tried the History Sidebar? {Ctrl + H}
You can {Ctrl + Click} the pages you want to open in new Tabs, one at a time.
Also, if you have your Options > Tabs pref deselected for When I open a new tab, switch to it immediately, it might be less distracting with all those pages opening in the background.

Thank you! I could do what I wanted easily from the History sidebar. It hadn't worked before because I'd opened the History in a separate window.
