What you seem to be asking for is a macro utility such as QuicKeys:

What exactly are you trying to accomplish? The reason I ask is there may
be a way to do what you want without Firefox, or with some other method
that doesn't require UI scripting, which is never as good because it
demands control of the user interface.
For instance, if you need to automate access to a form-based web page,
the WWW:Mechanize Perl module is an excellent, free, and easy way to do
that kind of thing. And it doesn't require any kind of user interface
interaction at all.
