new tab url not selected
Since the latest update when I create a new tab, my url is not selected anymore. How can I get it back? (it's a blank page, directed to about:blank) Thanks

Ok, I've solved my own issue; using the default "home" page, but blocked all the crap on it.
Thanks.

Hi, Could you please explain your URL is not selected anymore ??
Options --> General --> Homepage and make sure you do not have about:blank appened to the end of the home page URL please.
What is it you are expecting ?
If want stuff go to the Gear Icon top right corner on the browser window and click and turn on what you would like.
Thanks for you response, here is a more detailed explanation:
My aim is to open a new window empty. So it's set to open to the page about:blank. This part works.
However, since the latest update (60 I believe) there's a hitch; when I open a new tab, the cursor is simply at the end of the line in the url bar.
Before the update the whole url was selected, so I could just hit ctrl-t and start typing away, and the url-find mechanism would give me the correct site after a few characters. I've been using this method so long and so much, that I'm submitting the weird url before I notice it.
In addition there's something weird going on; when I start typing and expecting the usual local site to turn up in the url, it of course becomes something like "about:blankinteg" - then I hit enter, because it's in my hands, and somehow I end up on google, even though I have set searching from the url bar off - it still comes up with a google url somehow.
But this last one would not be an issue, had the selection not gone away.
Does pressing the ESC key select the full text in the location bar?

No, ctrl-A does. The cursor is simply at the end of the text in the url entry box.
Oh; and btw - not sure if this is useful info - the exact same thing is happening if I click the little plus-icon next to the last tab. But I guess it just calls the same function as invoked by ctrl-t.
