Don't load tabs until selected and then load with refresh (or skip cache) [Firefox 19]

Hi there,

I use Firefox 19 with the option "Don't load tabs until selected" (in Options/Tabs). It's a neat option but when the tab reloads, it doesn't refresh the page but just reloads it at the state when the browser last closed.

With Firefox 3.6, the addon Bar Tab provides the same option (because it was not an in-built option in FF yet) but reloads the page with a refresh so it is up-to-date.

How can I achieve this in Firefox 19, reloading with a true refresh or by automatically skipping the cache?

Thanks for the help.

Problem solved. I just had to set to delete the browser's cache on exit.

Note that this setting will disable the disk cache as you can see on the about:cache page.

Hi, thanks for your reply but could you please elaborate? How does choosing to delete the cache on exit disables it during use?

That is how it is implemented in current Firefox versions.
With this setting only the memory cache will be used.
