Open links on new tab?

[GtRacer]

Anyway of making this happen please? Always forget to click back when clicking on a link in a post say http://www.youtube.com then you end up scrolling 10 videos or whatever forgetting that you were on starlet central and end up closing the page.

Thanks

Ctrl + Left Click, works on every site (including this one). Opens a new tab from that link.

Or click the middle mouse button aka scroll wheel

Doesn't work unless that has been step up in the mouse settings..... the default for W7 is 'flip' (change windows)

so thats a no then?

much easier knowing that when you click on a link its gonna open it in a new tab and you dont lose your place on the current forum

works a charm on toyspeed and nzhondas

do what siren says and setup mouse 3 button to open new tab if it isnt already.

I got a gaming mouse so i think it was like that by default

[kpr]

think mine was also, is just some junk. probably depends on os and browser also.

will look at the forum settings later

for the person quoting people this is for you

ok. its default in phbb2 which is what ts uses, we are on phbb3, need to modify the forum code to make work. which cant be assed / don't really want to do. isn't just a tick box option

[spoonza6]

oh thats reasonable, code isnt really an easy thing to work with

PLUS

right clicking the link and opening in a new tab saves moving your hand up to the CTRL button, most times i browse the forums not anticipating to type things hence why its nice if clicking a link opens in a new tab
but
beggars cant be choosers haha

[iOnic]

didn't even realise TS did that I've just gotten into the habit of right click - open in new tab

Same.
Kris beat me to it but yeah, no simple way in phpbb3
