			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.ghacks.net/tag/firefox/">Firefox</a> is offering one row for its tabbed browsing feature. Tabs get reduced in size if the user opens additional websites but that stops eventually and additional tabs are not displayed anymore. The tab bar has to be scrolled to access those websites. Alternatively the icon at the end can be clicked on which opens the list of all opened websites. </p>
<p>It&#8217;s however not comfortable to surf that way and users who regularly open more tabs than their screen size can take could find the <a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5447">Tab Kit</a> extension for Firefox useful. One of the main features of that Firefox add-on is the ability to span Firefox tabs across multiple rows. While that opens up new space for additional websites it also means that the remaining screen estate for the active website is reduced.</p>
<p>While that is definitely one of the main features of the Tab Kit extension several others are available which also deserve to be listed. The tab bar can be moved from the horizontal row to the sidebar which is an excellent option for uses with widescreen monitors or large monitors in general.</p>
<p><span id="more-6242"></span><img src="http://www.ghacks.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/firefox_tabs_multiple_rows-500x179.jpg" alt="firefox tabs multiple rows" title="firefox tabs multiple rows" width="500" height="179" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-6243" /></p>
<p>Tabs can be grouped which is another interesting feature. Grouped tabs are being displayed in the same color or next to each other in the vertical tab menu. The add-on makes use of colors not only to display grouped tabs but also tabs that are active, unread or protected. This option can be disabled, it really does get colorful if you keep the default settings and that might not be something for everyone.</p>
<p>Other features of this excellent Firefox add-on include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Sorting Tabs in numerous ways</li>
<li>Mouse Gestures</li>
<li>Tab Dragging</li>
<li>Positioning tabs</li>
<li>Setting the minimum width and close button preference</li>
</ul>
<p>Tab Kit provides several useful features for users that work with a large amount of tabs on a regular basis. It offers many options that more or less regulate every aspect of the tabbed browsing in Firefox.</p>
