does opening a page with the URL about:blank or about:newtab do what you want? – Jaromanda X Jul 27 '16 at 11:41

@JaromandaX well this is a example how I want the effect to be, but I want my addon to open a page (its a new tab page that I created) but with a blank address bar. So it should not display `resurces://myaddon/data/the.html` – Feirell Jul 27 '16 at 11:57

and if you could have an url like `about:foobar`? will this do the job? If yes, take a look at [this answer](http://stackoverflow.com/a/34169673/3219121) – matagus Jul 27 '16 at 20:09

@matagus well this is like using a sledge hammer to crack a nut ... this might be a way (I am not sure that this will clear the address bar) but I have one other I will try out and if it works I will post back. – Feirell Jul 27 '16 at 20:23
