Is there a way to right click - open in new tab on the list of recent pages drop down menu?

I know that I can get the same effect by opening a new copy of the current page in a new tab and then back pedaling to the earlier page, but that is a bit cumbersome.

There is no Contextual menu for the Location bar drop-down, so you need to use {Ctrl + Click} or Middle-click the item to have browsing history items load in a new tab.

  • I can not right click "open in new tab" nor open in new window, in my bookmark file.the bookmarks are all there, but I have to open a tab first then left click to open an item. Why can't I right click? The options are there, but not highlighted/clickable.

  • When I link to an external site, the link does not work, if I right click "Open in new tab" the link works.

    When I link to an external site, the link does not work, if I right click "Open in new tab" the link works.

    I have not changed any of my preferences and they look like they are as I would have left them.
    I tried resetting Firefox and deleting the preference file, no change.
    By the way, I hate that the tabs are on top and not where they belong above the pages they are for. There should still be a way in Firefox to put them back without having to use an add-in.

  • Firefox immediately switching to new tab even when that feature is disabled on right-click open in new tab or on ctrl+click a link. Please help.

    Firefox switches immediately to new tab or the immediate next tab if multiple tabs are open, even when the respective feature is disabled, whenever I open a link by -
    1. Right-click > open in new tab
    2. Ctrl + click a link
    Earlier it did not happen like this. It is really very annoying. Re-installation and clean installation of the latest version did not helped.
    And this is happening mainly when I am using Facebook. Earlier it never happened so with Facebook.

    I don't have the divX plug-in and I still have this problem. Why should plug-ins that are not even triggered by the affected pages alter Firefox's behavior. Feels like bad architecture.

  • In Firefox 10, is there a way to add two "Open a new tab" buttons like in Firefox 3.6?

    In Firefox 10, is there a way to add two "Open a new tab" buttons like in Firefox 3.6?

    This UI change is really stupid and useless. People got used to some specified menu items order. Changing this order could only annoy and anger.
    Also the reload button has been relocated. This is another example of stupid Firefox 4 UI change. The good news is that it could easily be relocated to its original place.
    It looks like the Firefox developers are suffering from idleness and boredom.
    CHANGE IT BACK ASAP!!!

  • Right-click contextual menu in Firefox 4: Is there a way to move/remove "Open in new tab?"

    I don't really like tabbed browsing, but "Open in new tab" is the first choice in the right-click contextual menu. I would like to have "Open in new window" be the first choice.
    So is there a way to edit the contextual menu to change the order of menu items or delete them entirely?
    Thanks in advance.

  • When i right-click 'open in new tab', it opens new window instead.

    that's pretty much it - when i want to open a link and i right click on it and select OPEN IN NEW TAB, firefox opens a new window instead. this started quite recently and i have not made any changes to cause it.

    I had this problem too. Inspired by cor-el's suggestion, I just disabled Tab Mix Plus 0.4.0, and the problem went away.
    What is a little weird about it is that for me, all new tabs opened in the '''same''' windows. I could have several windows open, but every new tab opened in just one window, and always the same one.

  • Downloaded new version yesterday and can't right click open in new tab bookmarks now...

    Since I downloaded ner version yesterday, I can't right click on a bookmark and open in new tab like I could before. What's up with that?

    I went to view > column browser > and artists, group compilations and use album artists are all checked.
    Then I go to search and pull together an album compilation example "VH1 Top 100" highlight them all, click get info, I have "various artists" under "album artists" under "album" is "VH1 Top 100" and mark them as compilations. Go back to my album listing grid with artwork and they are all still scattered out. I must be leaving something out, but they were fine before I downloaded new itunes ?
    Thanks again for help.

  • Link to published course only works when you right-click open in new tab/window (Firefox)

    I have encountered an issue where my published captivate course will not load correctly (all I get is a black screen) in Firefox when clicking on the web link. All I get is a black screen. Refreshing doesn't help either. However if I instead right click on the hyperlink and select "open in a new tab" or "open in a new window" the course loads properly. I have been told that it works just fine in IE and Chrome.
    If any of you would like to test this in Firefox visit http://www.wakeprecinctofficials.com/p/training-resources.html and the link in question is called the Laptop 101 Online Course. I appreciate any help. Thanks

    I tested your link in Firefox 3.6 and IE9.  Black screen only in Firefox.  Works fine in IE.

  • Right click - open in new tab

    when i open safari for the first time and want to open link from the page in the same window i do right click and press the option Open link in new tab, which is working only in the first tab window. as soon i open another one right click option are limited to :Open link; Open link in new window;Download;Copy; Services.
    this problem started only few days back and if i remember the right click option should be:Open link in new window; Open link in new tab; Download link; Download as; Add link; Copy; Services.
    Anyone who can help to solve this problem ? i tried to reinstall safari but no luck, checked the preferences.... looked online but no answer to my problem.
    Thankx...

    Delete your webpageIcon.db and see if that makes a difference.
    Web pages now include a small icon or 'favicon' which is visible in the address bar and next to bookmarks. These icons take up disk space and slow Safari down. It is possible to erase the icons from your computer and start fresh. *To delete Safari's icon using the Finder, open your user folder, navigate to ~/Library/Safari/ and move this file "webpageIcons.db to the Trash.*
    Relaunch Safari.
    Also, try restarting your Mac.
    If that didn't make a difference, go here for trouble shooting 3rd party plugins or input managers which *might be causing the problem.* Safari: Add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues

  • Suddenly every link I click opens as a window even if I right click "Open in new tab" it will open as a window. How can I fix this?

    I've tried going to Options > Tabs > open new window in tab instead and still it happens.

    Try the Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there. <br />
    ''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
    * You can open the Firefox 4.0+ SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
    '''''If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />

  • Can't open a new tab with the + for tabs. Can open with Mid mouse button. Nightly.

    When I click The + to open a new tab in Nightly, it does nothing. I can open new tabs with mid ouse button, or right click>open in new tab. Just cant open a new tab via the + button. Started 3 updates ago in nightly (3 days ago pretty much).

    Are you using a 32 bit Nightly build or a 64 bit Nightly build?
    The 64 bit Nightly build for Windows is only generated to test for compilation errors and doesn't undergo all the tests that other builds get, so the risk that something goes wrong can be quite high.<br />
    So if you do use the 64 bit version then try the 32 bit version to see if you still have this problem.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

    The Ask Toolbar is causing that in the Firefox 3.6.13+ versions. Uninstall that extension.
    There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
    * Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
    * Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons

    Again you need to look at how to manage the device - these settings can be turned off already & you can edit the 'suggestions' too.

    Sadly you cannot disable autocorrect temporarily, so it's all or nothing.
