Right clicking a tab and opening new tab next to it

I want to right click a tab and have one fo the options be: open tab immediately after
I can do this in Chrome
Is there a BASIC plugin for this
I say basic: I want something that won't hog the browser taking up resources - I've had troubles with other tab plugins
Thanks
Omar

You can't do that without an extension.
You can try:

    Hello,
    ''jstavene wrote:''
    can find nothing under the tools menu for private browsing?
    Then it's not the same issue.
    If Firefox is set to '''Never remember history''', then you're in “permanent private browsing” mode, in which case the menu item ''Stop Private Browsing'' will be grayed out. Perhaps that's the case, and you don't find the menu item easy to see?
    * [[Settings for privacy, browsing history and do-not-track]]
    If that's not the case, then menu items can be hidden using the userChrome.css file. Check if it exists, and if it's there, rename it, then restart Firefox.

    In Firefox Nightly (what will become Firefox 20), per-window private browsing has been added, so the menu item under the Tools menu is gone. It's been replaced by New Private Window under the File menu. I don't suppose it's very likely that you're using such a cutting-edge test version of Firefox though.
    If that doesn't solve the problem, since it's a different issue, it would be best if you would ask a new question.

  • In the previous version of Firefox you would open a new tab by clicking on the small "Open New Tab" button at the Right Hand Side of the Tabs. This button has now disappeared in my upgrade.

    I just installed Firefox 4. In the previous version you would open a new tab by clicking on the small "Open New Tab" button at the Right Hand Side of the Tabs. This button has now disappeared in my upgrade. Firefox help still says you can open a new Tab by using the "Open New Tab" Button so how do I get it back??

    I got it back by going to "customize toolbar" and hitting "restore default set"! Now there is a small tab next to my open tabs with a "+" on it.

  • Is there any way to disable electric whining on the 2011 Macbooks Pro, when scrolling in Firefox and opening new tabs?

    This happens only in Firefox w/o addons; under Mac OS X 10.6.7

    To specify the issue: A high-frequency noise can be heard coming from the left upper side of the Macbook (from beneath the 1 key). It can only be heard when scrolling and opening new tabs in firefox and is not influenced by the volume level and muting.

  • Hello- I would like to have new pages open in a separate tab automatically...(i.e., Google--- Google listing---click on listing-----auto open new tab and put the page of the google listing that I selected, on the new tab. Thanks. RMartinez

    Hello again-
    Here is my scenario-
    I am browsing, and let's say, I'm on Google. I look up "albatross novels." I get 6 hits. I look at the list, and I pick one of them. I double-click on it, and away we go. My current Google search page is REPLACED by the selected "albatross" site. But it's not exactly what I want. So now I click the BACK ARROW to go back to the Google page, to look at the other 'albatross" hits. And now I find another site, replacing my Google page when I open it......And THAT site takes me to another site, and another, and yet another......But then I realize that the first site WAS the best one. Now I have to hit the back button 15 times and probably NOT reach the Google page from which I started.
    But if I could have the new pages open in a new tab, then I could go back and forth between all the pages without worrying about the back button.
    I am sure that this is just a setting change somewhere, but I can't find it....I do have it on my work computer.
    Thanks/Rod Martinez

    When I open a link from a search it does open in a new tab ''(it is new, but it is at least in Firefox 4+)''<br>

    From a Google search you should have the pages open in another tab, but with Google that is not quite good enough because they have them open all in the same new tab ''as you noticed so you've done that''.

  • Am unable to click and open new tabs using the new tab button after downloading the newest version of firefox?

    have recently downloaded the newest version of firefox. after installing i am happy to say i am pleased with the new look and features etc though for some reason i am unable to open new tabs as before.
    i now have to right click on bookmarks or favorites and select open in a new tab to do so, rather than simply clicking on the new tab button..

    If the problem turns out to be the "New Tabs at the End" extension, there actually is an internal setting for this that you could use instead.
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''tabs''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Double-click the '''browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent''' preference to switch it from true to false. That's it.

  • Hi, I just updated to ff6, when i open a new browser the tab bar is missing....however when i hit Ctrl+T i get the tab bar back with the original tab and the new tab. I have box checked in options "always show the tab bar". Any help greatly appreciated

    Using Windows XP and Firefox 6....tab bar has gone missing but returns when i open a second tab. I used to be able to open a browser which opened my bookmarked homepage and I cold then click the + to the right of this tab and open a new tab.

    hello, please install the search reset addon - it will revert the most common customizations those adware programs do in firefox back to the default: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/

  • When I click on Cross(+) to open new tab nothing happens, how can i fix this please

    I used to be able to click on + next to opened "window"?tab and a new window/ tab would open, now nothing happens. I have tried clicking on file and opening a new tab that way but still nothing happens.
    I don't have the Ask toolbar

    Try safe mode, see if that helps

  • Using right mouse click in bookmarks and selecting new tab or window does not work anymore in firefow 4.0. no new tab or window opens. Still works if you open new via File menu.

    When you select bookmarks, find the bookmark you want, then right mouse button click you get a drop down menu giving you the chance to open a bookmark in a new tab or new window. This no longer works with firefow 4.0

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

  • IE-unable to right-click and open new tabs

    When I'm recording IE7 on Vista with Captivate 3--I'm unable
    to right-click a link on a webpage and open the link in a new tab.
    Right-clicking in the history or favorites window to open the link
    in a new tab does not work either.
    Anyone had this problem or know of it or have any ideas about
    anything I can do about it?

    Hi arlhoolie,
    I am not sure what the cause of the problem is, but it seems
    to me you could work around this by capturing the opening of the
    new tab using the keyboard shortcut method and then fix it in
    Captivate when you edit the project.
    To do this, you would change the caption so it mentions right
    clicking over the link instead of the key combination. You would
    probably have to move the mouse and highlight objects so they are
    positioned over your link. If you need to show the right-click
    context menu you can capture that using Print Screen or SnagIt and
    then pop that into Captivate as an image. This way you would have a
    slide that shows the mouse moving over the link and "right
    clicking". The next slide would show the context menu and clicking
    the 'open in new tab' menu item. The last slide would be the one
    you already captured showing the new tab.
    This method works pretty fast for me, though of course, it
    may be easier and faster for you to try capturing it through
    virtual pc or other methods.
    IHTH

  • Double clicking or clicking anywhere in Safari opens new tab with Mackeeper and other unknown websites.

    The solution provided in the other discussions are not working for me. The 'vsearch' solution given in other discussions doesnt work.
    I dont know what I have downloaded but now whenever I type anything in safari or click or double click then a new tab opens with mackeeper link and other unknown websites.
    Thanks in Advance.

    You may have some other adware besides Downlite (aka VSearch). In addition, you may have a newer variant of Downlite, which is using a variety of new names after having the last two variants blocked by the anti-malware feature built into Mac OS X.
    Your profile indicates you are running Mac OS X 10.6.7, in which case you will not be able to use dominic23's suggestion (AdwareMedic requires 10.7 or later). Apple's support document on removing adware may help, but you'll find a more complete list of adware in my Adware Removal Guide.
    You may also have a variant of Downlite that is not described in any of these documents and that is not yet recognized by AdwareMedic. I believe that there is a new variant that uses a variety of different names based on unknown criteria, either defined by different installers or determined at install time by some characteristic of the machine that it is installed on. Look in the following folders:
    /Library/LaunchAgents
    /Library/LaunchDaemons
    If you find a file named "com.xxx.agent.plist" (where the "xxx" part can be anything) in the first folder and files named "com.xxx.daemon.plist" and "com.xxx.helper.plist" in the second, please report back here for further advice.

  • Clicking link doesn't open new tab

    Clicking a link in e-mail (MAC Mail) will open FF and direct to page, IF Firefox is closed. Fine.
    However, if FF is already running, clicking the link only brings FF to the forefront, but does not open a new tab, nor does the link populate in the current tab window. The only way to make it work is to right click to get the "Quick Look URL", then open that page.

    Justin,
    I just took your observation and rolled back Firefox to the previous version 31.0. That fixed it! Might want to give it a try.

  • Right-click Google search - put in new tab or window??

    Safari has a feature that allows one to right-click on some text and then Google that text. When using that feature, it Googles the text, but the new webpage of the Google search for that text appears in the same browser window that one was originally in.
    When I go into "Preferences," there is an option for links to be opened in a new window or new tab, but I don't see any place to choose to have the right-click-Googling feature open the search results into a new window or tab.
    Does anyone know whether it's possible to have the right-click Google results appear in a new tab or window?

    I find this annoying as well... I love Firefox and truly appreciate the developers work on it, but why would you re-arrange the order of these two options?? It's like making a new model of a car and putting the brake on the right and gas pedal on the left.....

  • Unable to right click a link and open in a New Window

    Hello,
    I've been having problems with FF when I right click a link on any site, and I want to "Open Link in New Window", but it never happens. Then I tried to right click the same link and I "Open Link in New Tab", which works. What happened? Did the programmers/developers change something? I even tried it in "Safe Mode" with the same problem. Can anyone suggest anything? I almost tried everything imaginable, even running Windows 7 Ult SP1 in Safe Mode as well, with no help.
    Thank You.
    David

    Note that such issues are likely caused by one of the extensions that isn't working properly.
    So if it happens again then start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
    If it works in Safe Mode and in normal mode with all extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) disabled then try to find which extension is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.
    Close and restart Firefox after each change via "Firefox > Exit" (Windows: Firefox/File > Exit; Mac: Firefox > Quit Firefox; Linux: Firefox/File > Quit)
    *If you have many extensions then first enable half of the extensions to test which half has the problem.
    *Continue to divide the bad half that still has the issue until you find which one is causing it.

  • I have adverts pop up and open new tabs. And all over my homepage. It has never happened before? all these mac keeping problems? whats happened?

    whenever i try to go on to youtube or Facebook an advert will open a new tab, and when the search comes through there are adverts all over the screen. This only just started happening? What should i do????

    You installed the "DownLite" trojan, perhaps under a different name. Remove it as follows.

    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:

    Right-click or control-click the line and select

    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.helper.plist
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/Jack.plist
    Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Then delete the following items in the same way:
    /Library/Application Support/VSearch
    /Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/Jack

    You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the DownLite developer has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing, has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight is inexcusable and has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.
