[Mozilla Q] What are command-line arguments to open a web page in active browser?



I hate the new google: it only uses left half of the screen and reserves 
the right half to draw your eyes to their stinking text ads.

(If any one knows how to block google text ads I'd love to know).

I've written these scripts:

$ cat /x/x/g
lynx -source "http://google.com/search?q=$*"; | \
  sed -e 's/Froogle//g' -e 's/<img src=[^>]*>//g' \
  -e 's/href=\//href=http:\/\/google.com\//g' > ~/search.html

$ cat /x/x/gs
lynx -source "http://google.com/search?num=100&q=$*"; | \
  sed -e 's/Froogle//g' -e 's/<img src=[^>]*>//g' \
  -e 's/href=\//href=http:\/\/google.com\//g' > ~/search.html

That feed the search through Lynx, to which Text Ads aren't served.
I then view the page in MozFirefox.

Is there a command I can use to tell the Active browser to switch to 
this page I've saved?

OT, but the Mozilla lists never answer.
