You can set Firefox to open new windows in tabs, or as a new window, I believe.

In Firefox, open "about:config" and change this preference to true:

browser.tabs.opentabfor.windowopen

I *think* that will set it to open new tabs. I haven't tried it
myself, but you can see this thread:

As always, Google is your friend. 

Best,
