"Open in new Tab" for bookmarks in sub-toolbar menu

In Safari, if the toolbar is full with Bookmarks, they begin to gather in a sub-Toolbar which can be accesed via clicking on the ">>" which is to the far right of the window. However if you two-finger click to open "Page in new tab" on any gathered bookmarks in the sub-toolbar, the operation doens't exist!
If you can understand what I'm trying to describe than that's good. I want to tell Safari developers this!
Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Hi
Yes - I see just what you mean.
fwiw the command-click (Apple key) does work to open in a new tab, even though the ctrl, or two-finger click isn't available.

When I try to open a new tab using the "+" on the toolbar, nothing happens. Even trying to use the cntl t to open a new tab does not work. To open a new tab, I must right click on a hyperlink. how can I correct this? Using Firefox 3.6.18

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

When clicking on links that open in a new window, the links don't open and Firefox freezes in a way. I can navigate the page I am on but cannot click to open a new tab or bookmark.

When navigating the internet, if I come across a web page that has a link to open a picture or program in a new window, if I click on it, it does not open. Firefox immediately looses functionality in that I cannot open a new tab with the mouse wheel, right click to open a new tab, or use my bookmarks in either the drop down or toolbar to navigate away. I can usually still navigate the page that I am on, for example, (https://loanconsolidation.ed.gov/AppEntry/apply-online/appindex.jsp), when it freezes I cannot click on any of the content at the center of the page but I can still use the links from the list on the far left. For an example of the pictures, (http://www.insect-sale.com/), if you click on "New Arrivals" at the top of the page it takes you to a list of products that can only be viewed by clicking on them. Usually a picture of the item would open in a small window but it does not and Firefox freezes. This has also happen when I try a view a degree audit on a school's website where a program would usually open in a new window. The only thing I have been able to find that still functions properly when this happens is the home page button. I can click on it or use the wheel to open it in a tab just fine, but if I try and go anywhere else I cannot. The only way I can get Firefox back to normal is to use the Task Manager and end the process. Another thing I have noticed, that may or may not be related; is that my Norton Internet Security toolbar, that should show up below the bookmarks toolbar and above the tabs, only shows up about 1 out of every 10 times I open Firefox. Some days it doesn't show up at all. If it does show up and I log into Identity Safe, the autofill for the programed website works, even if the toolbar doesn't show up the next time I open Firefox.

Go to Tools->Options->Apps
Here you should see two columns: Content Type on the left, Actions on the right.
Find and select excel spreadsheet or any other content type in the left column. There should be a corresponding action in the right column. What is it? You can use the drop-down list to select the option you want:
Always Ask - Firefox will ask each time: What do you want to do with this file?
Save file - Firefox will save this file to your computer
Use - Firefox will give this file to the program to open it
In case of saving, Firefox will either prompt you every time where you want the file to be saved, or save it to the default location. It depends on the preference in
Tools->Options->General->Download

Audio keeps playing when opening multiple new tabs from bookmarks folder

Hi,
Just wondering if anyone has noticed this behaviour in Safari and if its intentional or perhaps a bug.
If I have a website open with some audio playing (like a youtube video etc...) and then open some new tabs from a bookmarks folder by choosing "Open in Tabs", the audio from the video in the previous tab will keep playing in the background. However, any tabs that were open before (including the one with the audio) seems to have been automatically closed when choosing the "Open in Tabs" option so there doesn't appear to be a way to stop the audio, other than closing Safari.

You're welcome.
Could you please click the "''Solved It''" button next to the post which solved the problem for you? This will help others searching for a solution to the same question.
Thanks.

Why does this video keep opening in new tab for no apparent reason

This annoying MacDonalds promotional video keeps opening in a new tab for no apparent reason:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aOUdR9vly6s
I don't do anything. I'm just reading a web page and a new tab will open with this video playing. Any idea what is going on here?

When does the window open? What were you doing at the time?
What are your HomePage, and Newtab pages?

"Open in New Tab" for Images in 10.1.0.273 Browser

Good Day Sirs.
I updated to OS 10.1.0.273 on my Z10 yesterday, and noticed that the "Open in New Tab" side-tab/option is gone when selecting images.
This is also inconvenient as I browse image-boards where I usually open multiple topics/pages from a list of images representing the respective topics/pages.
Anyone experiencing the same?
Or would anyone know if I just missed some browser settings? (tried checking these, didn't find a clue)
Thanks in advance.

Yes, I confirmed it with the same website I frequent. I was previously able to open in new tab any images, without switching from my current active tab.
Just like in this very Web page, I can open in new tabs the links above: "Forums" and "Knowledgebase"... while I don't have the option to open in new tab from the image "BlackBerry Support Community Forum" at the top-center of this page.
I only have the options:
Copy Image Link
Save Image
View Image
Share
Also, before 273 I was able to open images in place of pages on new and separate tabs. In that website, their index/catalog of topics are represented by image posts. The same page I mentioned above.

Can no longer open a new tab for one window browsing

I used to be able to open a new tab without having to open a new firefox window. I can no longer do this. My Firefox version is:
3.6.73

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons (Ask.com toolbar) is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]

# Go to Tools, Addons, Extensions,

# click uninstall or disable,
# restart Firefox.
Please let us know whether that solves the issue.

How can I set firefox in order to open a new tab for every new search?

Every search i've done since the last update, Firefox open the new search in the old tab. I've already fixed the boolean valor in browser.search.openintab to true in about:config, but it's working only with google search (and not, i.e. with youtube search).

Why can't I open a new tab for the same website? Want to disable 'switch to tab'.

I used to be able to open multiple tabs for the same website on Firefox 3.xx. I could download files from one tab and work from another. How can I disable the 'switch to tab' function?

You can disable it by using the Switch to Tab no more add-on - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/switch-to-tab-no-more

When I click on the "New Tab" button, or try to open a new tab through the "File Pull Down" Menu, a new tab does not open. How do I fix this?

I cannot open new tabs. The new tab button, new tab option on the file menu and the new tab option when I right click on the tab all do not work. This started when I updated Firefox Yesterday. It is becoming annoying when trying to work with multiple tabs open. How can I fix this?

Try uninstalling the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and the current version of Firefox.

How do I use two or more images in a project in Elements 13? Every time I add a new image, it opens a new tab for some reaon.

1. Open first image.
2. Open second image using File>Place

Why did they take away the "Open In New Tab"option in Top Sites, Bookmarks, and History?

Why did they take away the "Open In New Tab"option in Top Sites, Bookmarks, and History? This very annoying.

Seriously - what could they have possibly been thinking? Mozilla, please tell us this was some kind of mistake. Accessing our bookmarks in FF-mobile is just plain bad as a user experience. And now without "Open In New Tab" we are supposed to drill down to our bookmarks for every tab we want to open? FF-mobile is almost useless without "Open In New Tab". Please restore "Open In New Tab" for bookmarks, thanks.

Context menu hotkey to open in new tab is different for links (T) & bookmarks (W); using T for bookmark deletes bookmark!--why?

When I want to open a link in a new tab, I right-click and press T. I ''think'' that the same key used to work for opening bookmarks in new tabs, also. At least I developed a reflex that always chose T for a new tab, whatever I was right-clicking on. Then a while ago, probably after one of the updates I automatically install (some time in version 3.x), I started noticing something different and extremely frustrating: not only is the hotkey for opening bookmarks in new tabs now different (W instead of T), which is just poor design--but to add injury to insult, when my still-stubborn reflexes pressed T, the bookmark was ''deleted''. Gone. I have thousands of bookmarks, and I make them so I don't have to remember things. If one is lost, there may be no finding the page again.
EDITED:
Having posted this problem, I just realized that I've answered the why-it-happens part of the question. We're left with the why-was-it-allowed-to happen, but that's unimportant if we can put an end to the confusing behavior.
T in the bookmark panel and menus is Cut, which is standard in all kinds of software, and that my lost bookmarks could be restored IF I remembered to paste them again immediately. (I swear I checked it out just before originally posting, and Cut didn't appear, though Copy did. Maybe I was hallucinating.) Anyway, knowing this will help with the long-term problem, but it's still a bad idea to have two different hotkeys for the same operation. Hence what needs to change is using T as the hotkey in the links context menu.
Here's my proposal: Change the hotkeys for "Open in new window" and "Open in new tab" in both the right-click menu for links and the right-click menu for bookmarks. Right now we have:
Links
* Open Link in New Tab (T)
* Open Link in New Window (W)
Bookmarks
* Open Link in New Tab (W)
* Open Link in New Window (N)
N0te that the bookmarks menu is mnemonically backwards; Window should be W. Both menus should be:
* Open Link in New Tab (N)
* Open Link in New Window (W)
Can someone take care of this in an update, please?

This also drives me nuts, I work in research online and use firefox as its tabbed browing is so good, and I ofetn have to open lots of links in rapid succession from web-pages - obviously I use right click T as the fasterst method of doing this, and I use it so ofetn that it is now a reflex.
But, whenever I try to open a bookmark from my toolbar (much less often) I tend to deletye it, and if I am lucky enough to notice before I do anything else I have to go through a laborious process to undo the delete...
Interesting to read the reason above, but I would suggest that this is something that needs to be standardised across all of a browser's context menus, otherwise browsing becomes jarring.
I am all in favour of 'T' opening in a new tab from all context menus, but if this is not do-able I think you should consider picking a different letter. The N & W proposal above is good.
Thanks!
