Firefox loss of taskbar windows position .. .
Palemoon aka firefox (...) First of all:
Palemoon is a forked version of
Firefox. They are not the same.
Script creation suggestion (...) 1) Is there a way to force firefox (palemoon, here) to never lose focus (...) 2) If i reopen a closed window by mistake, make the browser (...) 3) make the browser (...) force browser, make the browser ... You don't need an userscript, you need an extension or a new browser.
Gecko browsers (those derived from Mozilla/Firefox) stores the all the tab information in a local file on your hard disk. Closed or opened, all tab info goes to that file.
An userscript edits the user experience in one/multiple website/s, but not edit local files and not edit the way that the browser does the things.
My Firefox already restores the tabs in the same place that I closed. I do nothing with this, it comes with the default settings. Did you tried it ?

this comment shows you haven't understood the whole process that makes me face that issue .. . the loss of firefox windows order in the os taskbar..
And your comment shows you haven't understood difference between userscript and extension/browser.
Sorry, nobody can help you here.
wrong, i never stated i haven't understood your point.
Firefox loss of taskbar windows position .. .
An old issue .. .
Could any of the following 3 scripts be created, or even one or two ?.. .
-Palemoon aka firefox has the old bad behavior to minimize or bring other windows back
to front making me lose the focus of a specific page if: my history or cache are big or if the activity
on the specific page where i'm focused is important, like loading flash or some specific infos
in specific formats that look like virtual books, or loading many tabs, or using snaplinks plus.
-so when i try to close a tab & the freaky browser brings another window to front,
it closes that other window in a totally unsolicited way.
-I then have to reopen that window in history/recently closed windows
-unfortunately, that page is loaded at the end of my list of opened windows on the windows taskbar,
& repositioning it at the right place will not be taken into consideration by the browser, neither
by session saver, neither by the browsers internal session saver. so if i restart my session,
the page reloads at the end of the windows list, & the result is: disordered pages.
Script creation suggestion by order of preference:
1) Is there a way to force firefox (palemoon, here) to never lose focus unless "I CLICK" on a taskbar icon
to bring up the related window.. either the activity is intensive or not..
2) If i reopen a closed window by mistake, make the browser reopen that page placing it at the right place
where it was in the taskbar
3) make the browser keep the position on the taskbar saved in its memory like all other windows,
if i replace the window manually
