Hi all,
I may be missing something, but I can't find a box to tick to enable me to open a new tab automatically when I click on "Open in new tab". I an do that on Firefox.
Thanks,
Ian

@prsy What do you mean by "automatically"? Either you open a tab directly where it will open or you open it in the background where it should be ready opened for you later. Though lately I've noticed Chrome browsers offering a very useless blank page for a few seconds when I go to a tab I loaded in the background a few minutes ago. I'd love to fix that problem. Not too much point in loading a tab in the background if it doesn't even load. I am using a slow computer and wonder if its not loading to prevent less of a load to the computer hardware. 2gb of DDR2 ram doesn't go far these days!

Hi, rh99. You'll see that the question was answered by leocg. Ideally, as I could do with Firefox, when I click on "Open in new tab", it does just that, but it stays inn the background. I would like to go straight to that tab without an extra click, but it's not the end of the world if I can't in Opera.
Thanks,
Ian

To open a link in a new tab in the background, first hold down the Ctrl key and then click on the link.
To open a link in the new active tab, you must first hold down the Ctrl + Shift keys and then click on the link.

You can hover the mouse over the link, then hold down the right mouse button and drag the mouse down.

Great tip temkem! The ctrl/shift/left-click action does exactly what I want. I think you can call that one solved.
Thanks,
Ian
