  • Why, when I click on an email link in a PDF document, does a new tab open?

    I convert an excel spreadsheet to PDF. I click on the email link in the new document and it opens a new FF tab and two, not one, two MS outlook emails. Drives me nuts.

    I have the same problem, and I also wondered if Google toolbar has anything to do with it. There GMAIL was set as the default mail application at first. I have removed that setting, but Firefox 4.0.1 continues to use GMAIL instead of Outlook which is my selection for mailto handling.

  • Why can't I open a new tab? The + is there, but when I click on it, nothing happens. I've even tried File - New Tab. Still nothing!

    Suddenly, I am unable to open a new tab. I can click on a link and open a tab that way, but if I want to open several sites on my own, I have to open a new browser. I've tried clicking the +, and clicking File - New Tab. Neither are working. I've even checked Tools - Options - Tabs. That didn't work, either. Please help!

    This issue can be caused by the Ask<i></i>.com toolbar (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions)
    Your system details show that toolbar in the user agent as AskTbLPY/3.12.2.16749

  • When I click on firefox in taskbar, it does not open in a new window and shows previews.

    I have firefox 14 and windows 7. firefox is pinned to taskbar. When I click on the firefox icon in taskbar, I want it to open in a separate window and not show preview.

    Yes. Thank you. Tutorial solves half the problem. The firefox icon no longer shows previews but I am still unable to open a new window by clicking on it. I would like the icon to open a separate window every time I click on it. Instead, it opens only 1 window. Please help. Thank you.

  • I am unable to open new tabs, in any way I attempt to do so. I have checked the settings and they are fine, so it's not those. The only way I can open a new tab is to right click on a link and instruct it to open in a new tab.

    Any way I attempt to open new tabs, be it clicking on the new tab button or using the short-cut Ctrl-t, I am unable to open any new tabs on my browser window.
    The only way I have found that I can open a new tab is to right-click on a link and instruct that link to open in a new window.

    Try disabling the Ask Toolbar extension.

  • Why, when i click a requested popup link, does the popup open as a full-screen tab, not as a sized popup as per the link parameters?

    i am building a webpage with requested popup links. other browsers show me a popup as expected but firefox just opens the popup in a new tab, no sizing, nothing.

  • When I click on an email link, it starts an unending cascade of new tabs that I can only stop by closing Firefox. I know I can just copy the link but can't that problem with Firefox be fixed???

    this doesn't happen with all links
    the most recent one has this CSS element:
    html body table.page tbody tr td.bodyborder div.body div.main div.content form#Form1 table.formcontents tbody tr td table.structure tbody tr td.action input#_SubmitRegistration.buttonsave
    It is on the page: https://www.ctpmp.com/Registration.aspx

    You will have the mailto protocol set to "Use Firefox". for details of how to fix it see the "Change the action for a content type" section of [[Firefox keeps opening many tabs or windows]]

  • When I click on a bookmark, it will not open in a new tab, but I have this option checked?

    I have two issues since upgrading to FF4. The first issue is, when I click on a bookmark it will not automatically open in a new tab. I do have this option checked in my preferences, but it will not work. The second issue is when I search in the Google box, I cannot click on the auto search option.

    Bookmarks always open in the current tab unless you middle-click or use Ctrl + left-click to open the bookmarks in a new tab just like you do with other links.
    There are extensions that can change that behavior.

  • Can I get links to automatically open in a new tab just by clicking on them?

    I've selected the option to: "Open new windows in new tab instead" from the options menu. For some time this seemed to open any link I clicked on in a new tab. For some reason this feature is no longer working and new links clicked on simply overwrites the current tab with the new page. I liked the feature of having links open automatically in new tabs. The option remains selected but it does not seem to be working.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == recently

    Standard Firefox behavior is left-click will open a link or bookmark in the currently selected tab, over-writing whatever is in that tab. The definition for the option "Open new windows in a new tab instead" is:
    ''Open new windows in a new tab instead: This option preference controls whether ~~red:links from other applications~~ ~~blue:or from web pages '''which request to open them in new windows'''~~ are opened in a new window or a new tab in the most recent window. ''
    See: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Options+window+-+Tabs+panel
    A <u>'''middle-click'''</u> on a link or bookmark will open in a new tab (middle-click = press the scroll wheel). <u>'''Ctrl+left-click'''</u> will also open a link or bookmark in a new tab.

    <u>'''Update Java'''</u>: your ver. 1.6.0.07; current ver. 1.6.0.20 (<u>important security update 04-15-2010</u>) (Firefox 3.6 and above requires Java 1.6.0.10 and above; see: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Java-related+issues#Java_does_not_work_in_Firefox_3_6 )

  • I use google search.When I click on a suggestion in the search results tab, I want it to open in a new tab and keep the search results in the original tab.How?

    For example, when I enter the search term "armoires" and get a search results page/tab with suggestions such as Sears, JCPenney, or Amazon, I want to be able to click on Sears and have the Sears page open in a new page/tab. I want to be able to close the Sears tab and be able to use the search results tab again.

    In order to change your Firefox Configuration please do the following steps :
    # In the [[Location bar autocomplete|Location bar]], type '''about:config''' and press '''Enter'''. The about:config "''This might void your warranty!''" warning page may appear.
    # Click '''I'll be careful, I promise!''' to continue to the about:config page.
    # Look to '''browser.search.openintab''' change its value to '''true'''.
    With this configuration your search will be open in a new tab

  • I had Firefix, however I downloaded the newest Firefox along with all plugins. Now when I click in the desktop icon firefox refuses to open my default webpage. Why?

    I run Windows 7. I downloaded Firefox 6.0 for Windows which resulted in the following which I cannot fix:
    "I had Firefix, however I downloaded the newest Firefox along with all plugins. Now when I click in the desktop icon firefox refuses to open my default webpage. Why?....How do I fix this"
    I can go to internet explorer or AOL and it opens right up to my homepage but not when I click on Firefox.

    That problem can be caused by the Yahoo! Toolbar that extents too much downwards and covers the top part of the browser window and thus makes links in that part of the screen not clickable.
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Why does right-click & "Open Link in New Tab" make the original tab name to change to "New Tab" when I back-arrow in the original tab to reach the original page

    I use Google as my home page.
    When I do a search in Google I have a practice of opening the search links in a new tab by right-clicking on the link and selecting "Open Link in New Tab". That way I can examine multiple links from the search page, which is now open in the first tab.
    The problem that occurs is that when I use the back-arrow in the Navagation bar to return the first tab to its original page, I find the tab name of the original page to be "New Tab" rather than "Google" and I have to click on the "Reload current page" in the Navigation bar to return the tab name to "Google".
    I'm using Firefox-25 on a Linux-Mint 64-bit platform with KDE-4.9.5.

    The problem is just with the name of the tab, not with the contents of the page -- the page looks normal??
    I ask about the page because Firefox 23 seems to have introduced a problem with Firefox's "fast back-forward cache" on the Google search results page. It is related to the "instant prediction results" feature interacting with Firefox is some different way. (More in this thread: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/970863?page=2#answer-485663])
    Might be related. Not sure.
