Sir Topham Hatt Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 Hello! Now I don't know about you, but I think Microsoft was pretty silly. When clicking on links that have the "new window" reference in their HTML then they do open in a new window, but it means Tabs are not really worth it in Internet Explorer. Don't get me wrong, I don't use any other browser so I don't know if this is the same in others but I want it to either: Open in a new tab OR somehow let me change the command for "Open in a New Window" to the same command as "open in a new tab" or better still - delete that whole option all together? Cheers, Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rowdypixel Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 To elaborate a little bit on em_te's screenshot, select the radio button which says "Always open pop-ups in new tab". That, along with the radio button setting it to open links from other programs in new tabs, should give you a new-windowless experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bawx Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 I never understood this. IE7 and Firefox both, I click some image or link, and a new browser opens up. Um, what is there tabs for if your going to open up everything in a new window by default? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Um, what is there tabs for if your going to open up everything in a new window by default? You can alter that behavior (force it to open into tabs rather than windows) in both Firefox 2 and IE7.

ramian Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 Next qn: Is there anyway to force shift-clicked links to open in a new tab instead of a new window? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
