New Windows

Post by CrabbyJo »

Hey Wai, is there a way to set up the site so when you click on a link it opens a new window instead of navigating away from the site?
That would be so helpful if there is!

If you use Firefox or IE7/8, if you hold down the control button while you click on the link (with the left mouse button) it will open in a new tab.

Control+shift+click in Opera does the same thing.

Thanks Emma, gonna try that next link I come across!! This is something I was hoping for too, now hopefully it will open a new tab for me too. (I always use firefox, IE seems to have too many glitches/bugs)

Also on Firefox, right-click the link, then get to "Open Link in New Tab". That's what I do. ;)
