Clicking on Links...

[aggieterpkatie]

Dear Mods,

Is there any way to change the way a link opens when you click on it? The link currently loads in the page SS is in, so I lose SS. Is there a way to make the links open in a new tab or page without having to right click and choose "open in new tab?" Thanks!

If you right-click on a link it should give you the option to open a new window or tab. If you are using a mac, you click while holding down the apple key.

Thanks. I have been doing the right click thing, but I'm super lazy and don't want to have to do that.

That's pretty lazy!

You could do what I do. I have a scrolling mouse for both the laptop and desktop comps- just push down on the wheel and it opens the link in another tab.

Really, Katie......... I could have sworn I was lazier than you - now I KNOW it!

I know, that is definitely lazy.


And OMG I just tried clicking the scrolling button. You're my hero!!!

I soooo wish I'd met you when I was up that way. Not sure Bec even knew you then!

The 3 of us could have lolled around, sipping whatever, watching horses watching us.............

Wait a minute...who are you? Are you on my FB friends list?

Most browsers have a setting to open all links in a new window. There are also plugins for some browsers that let you have even more options for what local and offsite links do.

I am indeed. I'll PM you with the details.
