I want to create a new tab each time I click on a link. I always have to click on new tab and sometimes it still doesn't create a new one just opens it in the same tab.

You can middle-click normal links or press and hold Ctrl and left-click a link to open the link in a new tab. Links that do not specify a target window are always opened in the current tab.
