New tab doesnt set cursor in url field
When I open a new tab or page the cursor is not set in a field, as I have with Chrome. I want to open new tabs and immediately be able to type search or url in a field. Is that possible? and how do I go about setting it up? The page that is currently set is about:newtab

The about:home and about:newtab pages set the cursor to the search bar on the web page.
You would have to set the new tab page to a page without a search bar like the about:blank page.
You can check the browser.newtab.url pref on the about:config page and set that pref to your preferred new tab page.
- the default new tab page with the tiles is about:newtab
- the default home page is about:home
- for a blank page you can use about:blank
The browser.newtabpage.enabled pref should be set to true to use the page set via browser.newtab.url as the new tab page.
See this article about the New Tab page (about:newtab):
