Open Links in a New Tab

It seems that all the links I click I always end up right-clicking and selecting: "Open link in a new tab".

Anyone else feel the same way? It'd be a great new feature, imo.

Yeah, well, you know that's just like, uh, your opinion, man.

It's called control + left click.

Lol I always do that. I end up having like 30 tabs, because I don't close them.

Re: Open Links in a New Tab

Why can't you just switch them?

Ctrl+click changes the page.

It is pretty boring holding Ctrl. Just a simple click will do.

<click>link</click> <open>new tab</open>

External links should automatically open in a new tab, internal forum links should just keep in the same tab.

ctrl+click opens the link in a background tab, unless you're using opera. Dunno why...

I just click and drag the links to a new tab.

Re: Open Links in a New Tab

I use middle click on my PC or Ctrl+Shift+click on my laptop. Or if I feel like it I set up my trackpad so poking it here is a middle click.

Jad, on opera use Ctrl+Shift Click. Ctrl click opens it in a new non-background tab.

That makes opera my second favorite browser, maybe the first once I get to evaluate them more.

You're making an operaniac out of me.

Re: Open Links in a New Tab

I have 8 tabs open, and without middle clicking I would have 4 less.
