If you get "Error: No running window found," then try changing your script to run mozilla-xremote-client (which is in the same directory as the firefox binary) instead of firefox -remote (i.e, $FIREFOX_PATH/mozilla-xremote-client "openURL($@, new-tab)" [etc.]). This has been working for me, and I was having the same problem as you with firefox -remote.
