...which I expect has a "so obvious I'm overlooking it" answer...

Is there a way to lock or set just one tab to ask before closing? I hatehatehate when I'm flipping through my favorites and close my radio station tab by mistake, but setting it all to "ask first" drives me just as buggy. Is there any help for me?

You could open the radio station in a separate window, that would keep it out of the meelee

Otherwise, nope. Go to the foxy forum and make a feature request -- lock tab

See now, that right there is an Obvious Solution I overlooked.

Thanks!

Another thing is that if you do accidentally close a tab, you can go to History --> Recently Closed Tabs and bring it back up exactly as it was.

Go to Tools, Options, Main tab and paste the URL in for your radio station in the Home Page box.

Yeah, it's easy to get the tab back, but the station resets and I lose the song that was playing. Of course, it usually happens when I'm distracted by singing along to a favorite, so that's the main annoyance. But the Tabloc thingy Kitty found is working great, so I'm now saved from myself.

Thanks, all!
