How do I force Safari history to open in new tab instead of reusing current

By default, Safari reuses the current tab when opening the history results, which forces a reload of that page when history is closed. Is there a way to force history to open in a new tab of its own?

Is there any way to make this the default behavior without relying on a modifier key?

    When I choose to open a new tab from a website, such as facebook, it always opens it in a new window. How do I change this to just opening a new tab. I tried changing the tab settings but it did not work. I did not have the problem until I started using firefox 4.

    It is probably a JavaScript link.
    You can probably force it where you want it with a keyboard shortcut
    either "Ctrl+click" or "Ctrl+Shift+click". see
    * Firefox and other Browser Keyboard Shortcuts (Comparison Table)<br>http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/keyboard.htm
    ''Did that work?''
    Some styles that provide a warning as to the type of link:

  • Why does the tab button in Safari close safari and not open a new tab?

    Why does the tab button in Safari close Safari and not open a new tab?

    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

  • How do I get Google search bar results to open in a new tab instead of the current tab?

    When I use the Google search box, I would like the search results to open in a new tab instead of the current tab.

    It turns out there is an about:config setting just for this purpose. Toggle browser.search.openintab to 'true', and all is well.

  • Is there any way to to have the "Home" icon open a new tab instead of replacing the current page with the home page?

    I would prefer that the "Home" icon on the Navigation Toolbar open a new tab instead of replacing the current tab with the home page. Is there any way to accomplish this?
    Thank you.

    If you middle-click on the home icon it will open a new tab containing the home page.

  • My Safari app wont open a new tab and crashes if I try, I've tried closing all apps and reopening. Its a new ipad air and only started doing this after I synched with itunes.

    Hi,
    I have a new iPad Air. Since I synched it with my itunes account - all my details have been uploaded which is great but Safari will only work with one page open. If I try to open a new Tab it crashes. I have tried turning it off and on again. I tried closing all my apps that were open - including Safari and opening it again. Not sure what else to try.

    1. Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data
    2. Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple Logo

  • Safari won't open a new tab

    I'm using Safari 5.0.5 and when I hit command+T or when I right click on a link to open in a new tab, it doesn't open a new tab, it gives me a white page and the URL reads the same page I was previously on. I can't find anything that explains why it might be doing this or how to fix it. I haven't changed any settings recently, nor have have my browsing habits changed. Help?

    Try troubleshooting the Safari .plist file.
    Quit Safari. Open a Finder window. Select your Home Folder in the Sidebar on the left. It has a small house icon. Then open the Library folder then the Preferences folder.
    Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Desktop. Relaunch Safari, try tabs. If that helped, move the .plist file to the Trash. If not, move the .plist file back to the Preferences folder.
    Check Safari / Preferences - Extensions. If you have any installed, turn that off, quit then relaunch Safari to test.
    And from the Safari menu bar click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 7 buttons, click Reset.

  • How to open a new tab with the same current directory in a terminal?

    I use the following script to open a new terminal with the same pwd.
    I'm wondering how to modify it to open a new tab with the same pwd.
    #!/bin/sh
    # Open a new terminal in the cwd
    CWD=`pwd`
    osascript<<END
    set thePath to "$CWD"
    set myPath to (POSIX file thePath as alias)
    try
    tell application "Terminal"
    activate
    do script with command "cd \"" & thePath & "\""
    end tell
    end try
    END

    bit of a hack, but the make command doesn't seem to work for tabs in terminal. replace what's currently in the 'try' block with this code:
    tell application "Terminal" to activate
    tell application "System Events"
    tell process "Terminal"
    keystroke "t" using command down
    end tell
    end tell
    tell application "Terminal"
    do script "cd " & (quoted form of thePath) in last tab of window 1
    end tell

  • How do I ensure that Firefox will ALWAYS open a new tab instead of a new window?

    My prefs are set to “open new windows in a new tab instead” of a new window but exporting a page from another application always opens the page in a new window instead of a new tab. This is particularly unproductive when building and comparing multiple web pages.

    Thank you again Silkphoenix and cor-el for a fast and simple workaround. I was in full vertigo mode on the developers page, and couldn't find anything that I could figure out how to adapt on the command line page, so “tab tag” will do nicely until something else comes along.
    You are very welcome, Silkphoenix, but don't be so sure that a name has to have anything at all to do with the nature of a business. I made a nice living as a B2B ad agency for huge concrete producers and military contractors while doing business as “Churchmouse”. I foolishly changed my d/b/a after the emcee choked on the name when I was about to address a marketing group of 25 $50M businesses in Toronto--completely forgetting that I already had the account! All worked out well with the new, more professionally evocative name, but I wish that I had kept the old name too. So go get yours now! But also be aware that someone who trademarks and uses the name after you can possibly take your domain away from you through an agency called WIPO (World Intellectual Property Organization) in Switzerland. I'm not an attorney, so this is just business advice: WIPO is a good organization that provides a much needed and very valuable service, but it can sometimes hurt, so USE the name that you buy as a domain...

  • How do I make JDeveloper open a new tab instead of a new window?

    I am experiencing an annoyance where my JDeveloper opens a new Internet Explorer window every time I execute the program. I would much prefer that is opens a new tab in the window that I currently have open instead.
    If anyone has any idea how to fix this minor flaw within JDeveloper any help would be appreciated. Surely I am not the only person that has grown to despise this issue.
    Thanks in advance,
    Steve

    This is a configuration in IE. It has nothing to do with jdev.

  • How do I re-order popup-menu (open in new tab to the top)

    Hi mtolvane,
    Currently in the customize options of Firefox for Android, this is not a feature. I would recommend requesting the feature in a bug.

  • How can I add a button that opens a new tab?

    How can I quickly open a new (blank) tab without going to File --> Open New Tab. There has to be a button I can add or a box that isn't checked somewhere. I used to be able to click in the blank space in the row of tabs to open a new tab, but with this latest Firefox update, if I click in the blank space now, it just "restores" my browser window.
    To explain further - I know I can middle-click a link to open it in a new window, but if I'm on one page reading an article, and I want to open a new tab to look up a word or map or whatever, I need a faster way to open a new blank tab.

    You are right - there should be and there is on my windows 7 machine but not on my windows 8.1 machine. Firefox add-ins are identical. So how do I get the new tab button back?
